While various elements go into creating a successful business, customer service is centre-stage.
Excellent customer care is critical to the success of any business. Without positive customer relationships, no business can survive in today's competitive marketplace.
Customer care has changed immensely over the years. Our customers have become less tolerant and more demanding. It is a massive challenge for us to meet these demands.
This course will help you evaluate your behaviour against the customer service best practice standards to learn and appreciate where you need to make positive changes.
You will have the opportunity to explore and evaluate your current relationship with your customers and learn sustainable practices that consistently delight them. The aim is to create a stable and rewarding experience that makes customers want to return time and time.
This training course is aimed at anyone dealing with internal and external customers.
'A customer is anyone who can not do their work unless you do yours'.
Remember that being in business requires a lot of additional skills. If a person can manage emotions while assisting demanding customers, this will lead to customer satisfaction and retention.
It Costs up to five times more to get a new customer than to keep one!
Customer service is what separates companies that thrive from those that fail.
My 23 years of customer service experience makes my training unique, practical and easy to understand.
I can confidently say customer service has been my passion since I started my banking industry career after varsity in 1997. My roles have always centred around Customer care, including Personal Financial Consultant, Customer Service Manager, Branch Manager, Head of Retail Risk Credit and External Affairs Manager in the diamond industry.
My previous and current experience has equipped me with in-depth knowledge and practical customer service skills.
As a leadership and Cognitive Behavioral Life Coach, I can relate with participants at all levels through my adaptability and good interpersonal skills.
My ability to motivate people to take deliberate and consistent action ensures that the training gets embedded in the hearts and minds of participants and enables them to accomplish their goals and objectives.
I am looking forward to sharing the skills, my experiences and practical tools to transform your views, perceptions and approach to customer service.
