“One customer well taken care of could be more valuable than $10,000 worth of advertising.” – Jim Rohn
My parents always told me, “Treat others like you want to be treated.” What a mantra to live by! With that in mind, here’s five tips to help you perfect the art of providing excellent customer service:
- Impeccable, exceptional customer service needs to be top priority in everything you do and say.
- Read/re-read “Raving Fans” by Ken Blanchard this month.
- Always say “thank you.”
- When communicating, always ask, “What do you want to accomplish on today’s call/meeting?”
- Make sure you listen and then respond. Talk less, ask more and listen always!
