But for one of the original outgoing email service providers, [SMTP2GO](https://www.smtp2go.com/), their dedication to offering a friendly personal service to all clients is one of the many reasons why they won the Front-Line Customer Service Team of The Year award in the 2017 [Stevie Awards for Sales & Customer Service.](http://www.stevieawards.com/sales)** **Better Life = Better Business Sense** ![smtp2go.png](https://blog.stevieawards.com/hs-fs/hubfs/smtp2go.png?width=260&name=smtp2go.png)SMTP2GO provides 24/7 international customer support for servers across the globe. They’ve been listed by Deloitte Technology Fast 500 for five years in a row now and believe their success stems from their work-life balance values. “Our employees' happiness directly affects their work performance and the customers, so we make sure that our team is happy.” SMTP2GO representative and fellow-blogger Louise Feaheny told us, “Our flexible positions, allowing them to work from home, or from a co-working space, means that they have the option to live their life around their jobs.” **Success and Giving Back** SMTP2GO is a business with a heart. Last year, a beach in the Abel Tasman National Park was almost sold and made private. SMTP2GO donated to the “Give A Little” project so they could purchase it and donate it to the people of New Zealand. Flexible work methods have also helped one of their customer support agents volunteer to foster abandoned puppies and kittens from an animal rescue center in Spain. Since she started, over 30 pups and kittens in the last year received loving attention in a home. SMTP2GO heard about what she had done and sponsored the shelter with a portion of the donation paying for a life-saving operation on an old abandoned Podenco dog named Amatxi. SMTP2GO was pleased to say that Amatxi on the mend and looking for a home. **The Numbers Speak For Themselves** SMTP2GO also speaks to all of their employees on a regular basis to get feedback on anything they think is important. They then conduct annual reviews to make sure they're satisfied with their work. With over 90, 000 satisfied customers in over 140 countries, keeping employees happy is going well to say the least. “Being kiwis, we're friendly!” Feaheny concluded, “We enjoy life and realize that problems and issues with work can affect your personal life, which is why we aim to resolve them as quickly as possible with little hassle. We get a kick out of helping people!” Topics: [best customer service](https://blog.stevieawards.com/blog/topic/best-customer-service), [customer service awards](https://blog.stevieawards.com/blog/topic/customer-service-awards), [stevie awards for sales and customer service](https://blog.stevieawards.com/blog/topic/stevie-awards-for-sales-and-customer-service), [Customer Service Team of the Year](https://blog.stevieawards.com/blog/topic/customer-service-team-of-the-year), [Sales & Customer Service](https://blog.stevieawards.com/blog/topic/sales-customer-service) ### Request an entry kit for one or more of the stevie awards programs [Remove my information](https://blog.stevieawards.com/blog/not-just-b2b-people-2-people-too#) Entry kit will be sent to you by email.
