Add You - Golden Rules of Exceptional Customer Service
These days, almost all customer support systems are automated. Still, nothing beats the ‘real thing’ – live customer support that is both warm and friendly. Live customer support can do so much more for a company than business owners and managers realize. It creates a favorable impression on people – customer, partners and prospective clients who come in contact with your company.Developing live customer
CUSTOMERS KNOW BEST
Ask customers what it is they need from the service; find out how the service can be improved. They are in receipt of the service/product and they know. This is probably one of the best pieces of market research
Larger companies have learned that collecting art adds something special to its overall corporate image. An art collection may include art on display in waiting, or general areas. Larger collections may focus on education programs for the employees of the company and partnerships with area museums or art spaces.Unfortunately the kind of art programs and collections afforded by multi-billion dollar companie
Find a way to give the customer what they want.
The customer is always right – this is really about an attitude of mind. Even if the customer appears really unreasonable, listen to them, hear what they have to say, paraphrase your understanding and find ways to go for a win-win. The customer wants to feel listened to and valued. Listening, reflecting back and letting it be known that you do really want to help, goes a long way to meeting customer needs.
AT THE FRONTLINE
Staff need to know that as well as accountability they have responsibility, the power to make decisions without the continuous need to refer up the line.
Frontline staff, particularly ought to have a very pleasing manner, in tone of voice and a welcoming manner. They are the `face’ of the organisation and very often are the first contact point between customer and organisation. If you are a company where repeat business is important, then having a customer for life is much more important than an individual exercising their ego and then that customer is lost to the organisation, usually forever.
EXCEPTIONAL KNOWLEDGE
Know what you are talking about. There’s nothing better than speaking to a service or product provider who knows exactly what they are talking about. Able to delight the customer by going the extra mile and providing information that enhances the customer’s experience of your company is a great way of keeping customers interested in your company.
CUSTOMER SATISFACTION
Within a couple of days (at the most) of delivering the service or product, check the customer is happy with what they have received and check if there is anything else you can do to help them. People really do appreciate this, it gives them the feeling that they actually do matter to your company.

Many career tests are based upon John Holland's applicable theory of vocational or career choice. Almost everybody wants to know which job or career fits them best. Holland's theory proposes that people like to be around others who have similar personalities. When we choose a career, it means that we choose jobs where we can be around other people who are like ourselves. This theory is one of the best known and

We've all heard the jokes about car salesmen, especially used car salesmen.

I get calls every week from lawyers saying they’re not getting calls anymore from yellow page advertising. Having done quite well in the past, they're afraid to discontinue the advertising. They want to know what's going on and what to do.Apparently, lawyers are not the only ones. In his article "Quit wasting money on Yellow Page advertising" by Peter Fernandez, D.C., a yellow page, print advertising and p
CUSTOMERS KNOW BEST
Ask customers what it is they need from the service; find out how the service can be improved. They are in receipt of the service/product and they know. This is probably one of the best pieces of market research you could do. Once you ask customers though, it is really important to act on at least some of their recommendations and let them know that you have by providing them with feedback.
GET BUSY SOLVING CUSTOMER PROBLEMS
Do this quickly, as far as possible at the first point of contact. People tell more people when they are dissatisfied with your service or product than when they are satisfied and the worse thing about it is, even if the customer does not complain to you they will complain to their friends, family, colleagues, and the dog, anyone who will listen. Then you have not only lost that customer, you have lost all those others as well because if they have a choice they won’t risk using your company for fear of the same treatment.
As well as being known as a company that provides an exceptional quality of service, getting busy becoming known as a company that when things go wrong, there is no quibble about putting it right.
Everything I have written so far can be summed up as GOING THAT EXTRA MILE; people will remember that your company went out of its way to help them.
