How do you offer
“The Best Customer Service” and how do you get thought of as having “The Best
Customer Service?” Great question!
First, are you
passionate about what you do? So many people are just going through the motions
of their job, their business and their life. If you aren’t passionate about
what you are doing, either find a way to become passionate about it or find a
new line of work.
Why would I make
such a cold statement? It’s not because I am trying to sound mean it’s because
our lives are so short that you don’t want to waste your life in misery. There
are so many opportunities in the world to do what you enjoy why settle for
less?
Once you have
established what you are passionate about and enjoy doing (please keep in mind
that every job, every business and profession have their down days), let’s look
into how to be the best at customer service.
Look at all of
those in the industry that you have picked and see how they are handling customer
service. Keep in mind that I am not saying to do things the way they are doing
them. In fact, I am saying much of the opposite. Go to your competition and
find out how they:
- Greet
you when you walk in (if it is a retail location)
- Handle
your phone calls (are they courteous)
- Handle
returns of the items that you purchased
- Made
you feel doing business with them
- Work
with you to find or get what you need
- Take
care of you after the sale
Now that you are
armed with your competitor’s way of doing business, look into other industries
and see how they handle customer service. Seek out the best:
- Car
dealers service departments
- Restaurants
- Hotel
chains
- Department
stores
- Airlines,
etc.
Buy books and
read them on customer service, get new ideas on how to use these in your
industries and put them in place.
Now train
everyone in your organization on how you want it done and do not allow anyone
to slack off! Yes, you will have to change personnel because some people just
won’t do things the way you want them to. Others are just negative down to
their core and will never be able to be positive for you. That’s okay, they
just need to go to your competition and make their lives miserable (which will
get you more business).
Many businesses
are in business to sell items they don’t manufacture so the only way to
differentiate themselves is through “The Best Customer Service” and now you can
too.
Go out and win
all the business you can by being the best customer service company out there!
