HOW TO OFFER GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE Great customer service wins you a reputation for being helpful and pleasant to work with, and it keeps your customers loyal to you and your firm. They want to be treated as individuals rather than numbered subjects waiting in line. For customer service-driven growth, humanise them and yourself. We've listed below a few key pointers on how to offer great customer service that will leave your clients with a good impression of your company and service. Be Friendly and Show Kindness This is the most essential rule to provide great customer service-to be friendly. Always greet customers with a smile, use a friendly tone and be respectful and courteous. Customers can sense when you have a negative energy and this in turn negatively affects their experience with your brand. Always be kind and empathetic towards the customer, even in the most stressful of times. During tough situations when customers appear to be disappointed or angry, aim to resolve the issue peacefully and respectfully. This can sometimes take great strength. Make sure that your attitude, language, and tone of voice reflect warmth and good humour. Be Prompt with Your Responses A sign of good customer service is promptness in response to queries or when resolving issues. The timeline of your responses is a crucial factor in determining how effective you are in addressing your customers' concerns. When customers have a time-sensitive request, they expect a quick reply to their inquiries. When they receive it, they appreciate the efforts very much and will likely recommend your business to others. Try responding to requests through phone calls, emails, or social media comments within 24 hours for great customer service. Let your customers know how long it will take for you to assist them. Be Knowledgeable about Your Products or Services If you want to serve your customers in the most efficient way possible, know every aspect of your product or service before selling it to them. Incomplete knowledge will prevent you from discussing the features of your product efficiently and will also hinder the ability to explain the advantages of using the product or service. Also, proper knowledge about a product will help you better assist your customers during troubleshooting processes, should your product not work properly. Listen to Your Customers Customers must feel that they are being heard and understood. The alternative can be extremely frustrating to them, and can result in poor customer feedback. Listening to your customers will make them feel like you are taking a personal interest in their needs and will help you better serve them. Be Thankful A simple "thank you" can be very effective when providing customer service. Customers often remember expressions of gratitude, and it drives them to come back for more purchases
