4 Section 1 Organisational policies and procedures The business owner has greeted you at the door of the office and remarked on your impeccable presentation. She is particularly pleased you took the time to shine your shoes this morning As you sit down you notice a folder on the desk with your name on it. You are welcomed to the company and told that today you will be learning what is expected of you as a YouBooks team member and customer service representative. She tells you that inside this folder are all the documents you will need to do your job according to the organisation s. Before your induction begins you are asked to read this poem. Remember Me? I m the quiet fellow who goes into a restaurant, sits down patiently and waits while those serving do everything but take my order. I m the nice person who goes into a department store and stands quietly while the salespersons finish their little chit-chat and ignore me. I m the sort of person who drives into a petrol station and never blows the horn or expects the windshield cleaned, or complains if the attendant spills the petrol. Yes, you might say I m a good guy. But do you know who else I am? I m the person who never comes back It amuses me to see you spending thousands of dollars on advertising every year to get me back when I was there in the first place. All you had to do was show me a little courtesy. (Author unknown) Exercise 4 Explain what this poem shows you about customer service. Submit the completed exercise as instructed by your trainer. Your response was pleasing and the process of your induction begins. Throughout the morning you are shown the following documents: Software Publications Pty Ltd,

5 Section 1 YouBooks Company Information YouBooks Company Summary YouBooks is a family owned bookkeeping business located in Main Street, Smithtown. Customers who require personalised service away from large accounting businesses use our services. YouBooks service a wide selection of bookkeeping needs and assist customers both in the shopfront and off site in the clients premises.

Between these two very capable people there is over 60 years experience in bookkeeping organisations.

Customer Guarantee We guarantee our customers friendly, personalised service for all your bookkeeping needs. 22 Software Publications Pty Ltd, 2014

6 Section 1 Interpersonal skills How are customer needs identified? Every customer has a need that they believe must be satisfied by the sales person, but how do you establish exactly what you can do to satisfy that need? You communicate effectively. These interpersonal communication skills create and build healthy relationships with your customers. When you communicate you transfer ideas, information and attitudes from one person to another. Effective communication and interpersonal skills involve a number of methods: speaking questioning active listening clarification methods appropriate non-verbal skills feedback. Understanding each of these areas will enable you to clarify your customer needs efficiently, courteously and with a satisfactory result to both parties. Speaking Your voice tells a lot about you. When we listen to someone speak we can intuitively know about their mood or emotions at that point in time. The perception we have of that person is generated from those initial moments in the conversation. When you speak to a customer always: Speak clearly at a measured pace Speak in a pleasant tone Keep your volume appropriate Many people you deal with may not have English as their native language and so will need you to speak more slowly than you would with an English speaking person. Some people may have hearing difficulties and require speech to be slower to distinguish between sounds. Make your voice sound interested, happy, professional and helpful. Smiling alters the sound of your voice. Did you know that a smile can be heard? Listen next time you speak to someone on the telephone and try to hear if they are smiling when they talk. Vary the tone of your voice appropriately to indicate changes in the conversation. Monotone voices indicate boredom and lack of interest in the topic. Loud voices are annoying and threatening. Soft voices cause listeners to strain to hear. Software Publications Pty Ltd,

7 Section 1 Feedback The basis of communication is the transmission of information between separate parties and the gathering of feedback from all parties to ensure the information transmitted is understood. Every time you use one of the skills from the previous pages you are giving feedback to your customer. The sender gives information to the receiver The feedback is transmitted to the sender who accepts and evaluates it The receiver accepts and disseminates the information The receiver gives feedback Exercise 13 Read the following statements and decide if they are true or false in every customer service interaction. 1. As long as the customer service representative s message is conveyed clearly the communication has been effective. 2. Non-verbal communication is better to use than verbal communication when dealing with angry customers. 3. If a customer does not maintain eye contact with the customer service representative the conversation has been a failure. 4. Speaking quietly and hurriedly conveys a sense of urgency to a customer. 5. There is no need to give feedback during a telephone conversation. 6. Feedback should only be given by the customer. Submit the completed exercise as instructed by your trainer. 34 Software Publications Pty Ltd, 2014

8 Section 2 Quality service delivery As part of the continuous improvement process a business will assess its staff to determine the quality of the service delivered to its customers. This involves assessing how well the delivered service conforms to the client s expectations. A quality service delivery includes relationship building, establishing communication, building trust and resolving potential problems or conflicts. Relationships are built on a base of honesty, integrity, trust and reliability and are achieved by delivering what has been promised. Customer needs are also a focus point when assessing if the service delivery satisfies the customer with a reliable, creditable, quality product. To know if a customer is happy with the service delivery a business needs to confirm that information has been exchanged freely between the customer and the customer service representative. A customer who feels comfortable with the customer service representative will find it easy to say whether their needs and expectations have been met. Happy customer relationships will be maintained as long as the service delivery remains high quality. Exercise 18 Do you think that quality service delivery is important to internal customers of a business? Give your reasons. Submit the completed exercise as instructed by your trainer. Rapport When individuals or groups try to understand each other s feelings or ideas they create a harmonious relationship. This relationship of harmony initiated by open communication between the people concerned is known as rapport. Building a rapport with your customers generates a state of shared connections. On your first contact with a customer you can work on developing a rapport by actively listening to what the person is saying and looking for shared experiences or circumstances to speak about. Showing empathy, that is, demonstrating that you can understand how the other person feels and can see things from their point of view, will go a long way towards building a mutually beneficial relationship with a customer. Although initial conversations can help the customer to relax, most rapport-building happens through non-verbal communication. Rapport is created subconsciously by matching non-verbal signals, including body positioning, body movements, eye contact, facial expressions and tone of voice. Leave all your judgements behind when establishing rapport. Let go of stereotypes and other preconceived ideas you have about the customer and concentrate on satisfying the customer s request to the best of your ability. If you agree with the customer, be open and say you do. If you have to disagree, give your reasons before saying you disagree. Remember that being honest is your top priority. Acknowledging mistakes will help to build trust. Following up on your promises ensures that integrity is not compromised and demonstrates the reliability of your service. All of these qualities are the building blocks of establishing good customer relationships. Software Publications Pty Ltd,

9 Section 2 Exercise In the following examples explain what the customer service representative said that caused a breakdown in the initial customer relationship building process. I ll find someone to help you so you can tell them your problems again. I don t think you can afford that one. The discount items are over there. I wouldn t suggest we handle your case. The last time we had a case like this we had to work too much overtime and the client just got angry about the bill. 2. Why do you think customer relationships are important to a business? Submit the completed exercise as instructed by your trainer. Customer complaints Regardless of your best efforts at building positive relationships and providing excellent customer service, you cannot please all of the people all of the time. In most cases unhappy customers do not complain to the business because they do not want to make a scene, or are certain that the business will not be interested in their complaint and they will waste time trying to get some positive action to rectify their problem. Some people are afraid to complain. They fear they will not be believed or accused of causing the issue. The people who do not complain to the business are the people who will simply take their business elsewhere. They will ruin the reputation of the business as they talk about their bad experience to their friends and family. A complaint should not be taken personally, nor should it be seen as negativity. It is important that businesses encourage their customers to complain as this provides an opportunity to continuously improve business services and ensure the organisational goals are met. A complaint provides opportunities to: help customers understand customers correct procedures understand products retain customer loyalty meet organisational goals. 44 Software Publications Pty Ltd, 2014
