Principles of
Customer Service
-
Support customer as a team
- When every employee, no matter their title, is responsible for customer success, it's easier to consistently deliver a great experience
-
Listen to customers (and share their feedback)
-
Mirroring what a customer shares
- You help them feel heard while reinforcing that their perspective is important to you
- This ensures that your team fully understands your customer's concerns
-
Build customer relationships (even with AI)
- Both self-service and live agent support helps to build relationships with your business, as customers get service the way they want it
-
Be honest about what you don't know
- If your agents aren't sure how to solve a problem, let them know it's okay for them to tell the customer they'll find the right answer and follow up
-
Practice empathy (Hint: Generative AI can help)
- Customers expect you to understand their unique needs and expectations, so it's important to include empathy and compassion in your tollkit
-
Know your product
- The more your customer support team knows about your product, the better they'll be at helping customers solve issues
-
Remember - every seconds counts
- Give your team the tools they need to support customers as efficiently as possible and solve each problem completely - the first time
