customer service

Hi everybody!

The other day in our English lesson, we have been talking about customer service. I will give you some important tips how to deal with complaints.

·         Negotiations with customers should always be a win-win situation. Try to find a solution that both parties are satisfied.
·         When a customer is not satisfied, do not make the mistake of thinking that ‘attack is the best form of defence’.
·         Listen to your customer attentively and try to respond his expectations.
·         Always focus your full attention on your customer and give him an opportunity to make their point.
·         Don’t react immediately and without thought. Take time to respond. Sum up the main parts of your customers complaint and then give your own statements.
·         Avoid using phrases starting with “you” this can be interpreted as an attack.
·         Instead of saying “I’m sorry” choose expressions like “We very much regret the inconvenience caused be …” or “I can understand that you feel that …, but …”.
·         Only focus on the facts and not on feelings of anger or resentment.

If you obey this tips your customers always will be satisfied because they have the positive feeling that they have been taken seriously and that you are interested in their well-being.
