Top Takeaways: · A customer gives us the gift of trust when they choose us. We must return that trust with integrity, passion, relentless effort, and a sound process. · Society has allowed companies to give customers mediocrity. Returning to do business with companies that do not provide great customer service sets the tone that it is okay to do less. · With so much competition out there, every business cannot afford to provide a bad customer experience. · You can't provide a repeatable and sustainable experience without creating process and training around it. · Trust is the outcome of doing the next right thing. Do the right thing often enough and in a sustainable way that it becomes predictable for your customers. · Companies need to get in touch with how their customers want to communicate with them whether it is via phone, email, chat, social media, or other mediums. · Omnichannel communication is having all the channels that a customer can connect with your brand in a centralized dashboard.
