Customer Feedback
Why is Customer Service Training Important?
People are thinking more carefully about spending money, according to research by the Institute of Customer Service (ICS). This means they’re more prepared to shop around for better value. Great customer service can be that value.
Over a third of customers are willing to pay more for excellent customer service and this looks set to increase. For around 1 in 5 consumers, good customer service is the deciding factor when considering a purchase.
Poor customer service can also drive existing customers away. Surveys show that over 50% of consumers would switch to a competitor because of a bad service experience. This rises to 80% after more than one incident.
And while consumers are growing more comfortable with automated service responses, the best-performing businesses are still those that combine efficiency with real human care.
This online Customer Service Training course helps your employees listen, empathise and communicate with customers. They’ll be able to deliver service levels that enhance your business’s reputation, promote positive word of mouth and grow your customer base.
