Founder and Author
Don R. Crawley is the founder of Compassionate Geek and author of the acclaimed book 'The Compassionate Geek,' based in Auburn, Washington, near Seattle. As a recognized thought leader in IT customer service and professional development, Don built his company on the philosophy that IT work is fundamentally about crafting creative technical solutions to perplexing human problems — not just managing technology. He develops comprehensive educational content, including courses, infographics, and training programs, delivered globally through an on-demand portal and virtual live-video presentations in English, French, and Spanish. Don's work helps IT professionals and organizations worldwide strengthen both their technical competence and interpersonal skills, driving superior customer satisfaction, loyalty, and long-term success for IT teams and managed service providers alike.
A useful five-stage model includes awareness, consideration, purchase, retention, and advocacy. In IT service, the relationship often begins when a client first encounters your team, develops through clear support during a problem, and strengthens after resolution. Consistent follow-through, respectful communication, and reliable technical guidance help move customers from one-time users to long-term advocates.
