Ingredient 2: Customer Service
Question:
4 key tips to excellent customer service?
Answer:
Research brings to light an important fact – a lot of companies are not good at providing customer service. Customer service can make or break a business.
Take a look:
- Customer experience will overtake price and product as key brand differentiators.
- 86 percent of buyers are willing to pay more for a better customer experience.
- 70 percent of buying experiences are based on how customers feel they’re treated.
Here are four tips for excellent customer service:
- Put service before profits. Or at least give them equal weight. Move priorities and allocate resources to improving customer service. The investment is worth it.
- Don’t take customers for granted. If a business doesn’t listen to its customers, a competitor will.
- Value customer suggestions. Respond to customer enquiries via phone, email, or in person. They are telling you what they need and want. Listen.
- Don’t settle for mediocre. Commit to continuously improving the way customers are treated.
