Is your customer service up to scratch? Depending on which company or employee you ask, the answer is sure to be different. Everyone knows that customer service is important but we all have different views on what good customer service is. Everybody wants to be the recipient of polite and timely service. While you may put all your efforts into your approach to the customer, some will just not thank you for it. However, when you know that the way you treat your customers could be the difference between having enough tips to pay the bills, you do not think twice about how important customer service is. The answer is clear at the end of every month.
I worked at a Chinese take-away for my first job. The boss was the father of my best friend. The first thing he asked me was; why is customer service important? Because of his thick Chinese accent I got confused and though he said something completely different. Luckily a huge party arrived before I had time to make up a reply. My buddy then told me what he had said, and I basically laughed it off. While I did have trouble conversing with my new boss, I didn’t have any difficulty learning the value of good customer service. All it took was a few wrong deliveries. I soon learnt that I would not get a tip if the customer got the wrong food.
Working in shops and bars over the next few years confirmed why customer service was important. Remember, angry customers means no tips. When you work positions like these, you want and need the gratuity. It makes up your pay check.
Big businesses cannot afford to ignore the importance of good customer service either. When you need to train your employees on the value of customer service, you can hire business speakers to impart their knowledge. Business speakers are effective because they have industry experience, and more than that, they have been extremely successful in business. Sales and profits rely on good customer service. Next time you ask yourself why customer service is important, just look at the happy responses from your customers and the happy pound signs next to your profit sheet.
