Customer Service Training:
Customer Service Workshop - Service is a Way of Life, Not a Promotional Campaign

Customer service is understanding and exceeding the needs of the customer.

A customer, or client, is someone who purchases a commodity or service.

Service is the work performed by one for a fee that serves or benefits others.

Loyalty is being faithful and unswerving in allegiance.

Value is the usefulness, importance, or general worth of something.

Have you ever entered a restaurant, a bank, a department store or any other business where people were wearing name tags and where banners on the wall proclaimed the customer to be #1 - and then you waited in line for fifteen or twenty minutes to be served? Then when it was finally your turn, the person behind the counter looked at you and said, "Yeah, what do you want?" If so, then you know what it's like to be exposed to a promotional campaign that pays more attention to lip service than to customer service.

There is nothing wrong with a customer service promotional campaign - if the people wearing the buttons live up to the customer service values they say they believe in. If they announce that customers are #1, then they had better treat customers like they are! In other words, the company must "walk the talk."

Providing excellent customer service needs to be a key, fundamental practice. It is a way of life! Daily actions must reflect spoken words. Each customer service employee needs to be committed to "walk the talk" and provide excellent customer service to all.

A customer service SUPERSTAR is:

Knowledgeable

Self-confident

Energetic

Timely

A good listener

Customer-oriented

An effective communicator

A team player

Patient

Exhibits a willingness to do whatever it takes!
