Customer Service

 

 

4D WikiBit

 

According to Jamier L. Scott. “Customer service is a series of activities designed to enhance the level of customer satisfaction – that is, the feeling that a product or service has met the customer expectation."

 

Customer service is normally an integral part of a company’s customer value proposition. In their book Rules to Break and Laws to Follow, Don Peppers and Martha Rogers, Ph.D. write that "customers have memories. They will remember you, whether you remember them or not." Further, "customer trust can be destroyed at once by a major service problem, or it can be undermined one day at a time, with a thousand small demonstrations of incompetence."

 

From the point of view of an overall sales process engineering effort, customer service plays an important role in an organization's ability to generate income and revenue. From that perspective, customer service should be included as part of an overall approach to systematic improvement.

 

Some have argued that the quality and level of customer service has decreased in recent years, and that this can be attributed to a lack of support or understanding at the executive and middle management levels of a corporation and/or a customer service policy.

Exceed Your Customer's Expectations

Customer Service receives a great deal of attention in almost every business and industry. In this customer-oriented environment, excellent customer service is as much the responsibility of top management and front-line supervision as it is of the employees who provide service.

 

There are many stories about customer complaints and empowered employees who were able to handle those situations successfully. While everyone has a favourite customer service story, all of us have different ideas on what constitutes outstanding service. Senior executives often speak of service as part of a mission statement or policy manuals. Middle managers see service as a process of customer problem-solving. Front-line employees often define service as a friendly greeting and maybe a smile. Each of these individual attitudes and perspectives on customer service are of great value as they all contribute to a complete picture of how to achieve exemplary customer service. This is where our programs begin - changing behaviours toward customer service - with the individual.
