Customer Service Training Customer Service Training Seminar
Presented by Academy of Business Training
The Customer Service class will look at all types of customers and how we can serve them better and improve ourselves in the process.
Course Description
- Learn industry recommended business writing procedures and best
practices.
- Learn from a professional with 30+ years business experience.
It is safe to say, most businesses you deal with fail to deliver superior
customer service. No one was born knowing this skill...it is a learned trait.
How can you expect to deliver the kind of customer service that wows your
customers if you do not train to do so? Poor or no customer service training
can have a devastating impact on the bottom line. It costs you six times more to
attract a new customer than it does to keep an existing one. A typical
dissatisfied customer will tell eight to ten people about their problem. Seven
of ten customers will do business with you again…if you resolve the complaint in
their favor. If you resolve a complaint on the spot, 95% of customers will do
business again. Of those customers who quit, 68% do so because of an attitude
of indifference by the company or a specific individual.
Each and every one of us serves customers, whether we realize it or not. Maybe
you're on the front lines of a company serving the people who buy your products.
Perhaps you're an accountant serving the employees by producing their pay checks
and keeping the company running. Maybe you're a company owner serving your staff
and your customers.
The Customer Service class will look at all types of customers and how we can
serve them better and improve ourselves in the process. You will be provided a
strong skill set including in person and over the phone techniques, dealing with
difficult customers, and generating return business.
