Customer Service Workshop - Pestering the Customer to Buy is Not Customer Service
Some companies pretend that they give customer service, but in reality they are using the customer service disguise for high-pressure sales techniques. Being pushy with customers is not customer service, and running around asking everyone in the store if you can help them with something is often disingenuous and you may as well be asking;
"Can I help you buy something or can I help you out of your money, all of it, along with your first born?"
Let's face it, this is not customer service, although many corporate training programs of the largest box store retailers do promote this type of activity and they do call it 'customer service' training. Folks it does not matter what you call it, it is what it is. Customer service is helping the customer, answering questions, solving problems, letting them know you are there to help.
Customer Service is not high-pressure sales tactics or shoving your products and services down their throats. Let's discuss an example. If you go to a used car dealership and the guy in the colorful clothes and loud tie comes out, he's not there to give you customer service, he is there to sell you something, and try every trick in his book to get you to buy.
There is nothing wrong with sales and it is understood that businesses want to sell you something, but let's be honest and call it what it is. If you are a salesperson, then your name tag should say that, it should not say Customer Service Representative.
