Why? Despite unfulfilled promises from companies, long waits, cold treatment and delayed return calls by customer service staffs, customers rarely complain and keep coming back to your business, provided your competitors are not doing any better than you. That's a fact! Rule of Thumb 1. Create a Vision of Perfection. Make it easier for your customers to do business with. Make it a warm and pleasant experience for your customer. It is a must to train staff to be sensitive to the need of the customers, be attentive, warm and knowledgeable so customers feel they are in good value of their money. Make customers feel happy to come back for more. Always remember to communicate your vision to the rest of your company. That perfect vision is your goal! 2. Study and Discover What Your Customer Wants. a) Listen to your Customers. Listen to what they say. Listen to what they dont say. Customers sometimes may say one thing but mean another. b) Listen to your silent customers. They are the ones who dont even bother to complain. c) Listen to those who say "Okay", Fine. They are the ones who are not satisfied even when they mean the line was too long. Know when to ignore what customers want. Dont try to give them everything all at once. It doesnt work. Look after the needs of your customer only within the limits of your vision. Constantly focus in achieving your vision. 3. Be Sincere. Start asking questions that are sincere. Customers dont open up with you if you if they feel that you dont care. Win their confidence. Take time to get a conversation going. Customer can sense that you are serious, only then will they open up to you. Remember. If you dont listen to your customers thoughts and feelings, you fail to give him what he need because you simply dont know what that is. Whats worse, you reject him as a person, that his thoughts have no value. 4. Be Consistent! Dont commit to the mistake of offering too much service. Better find a small promise that you can consistently deliver than a myriad of services you seldom can meet. Focus on small thing, a small service and you can deliver consistently. 5.
