A handbook on Customer Service

$6

Customer service is as old as ancient Babylon.   It is the simple act of providing support to customers before, during, and after they make a purchase.  Customer service includes answering questions about a product or service, helping customers troubleshoot problems and make informed decisions about their preferences or choices, and addressing any other issues  they may have.

Customer service is important in business because it helps to build and maintain strong relationships with customers. The fact is that when customers have a positive experience with a business, they are more likely to continue using their products or services, which can lead to increased sales and revenue. Furthermore, providing excellent customer service can also help to attract new customers and improve a company’s reputation.

Customer service has become an indispensible, competitive tool. For instance, providing excellent customer service can be a significant differentiator for businesses and can help them stand out from their competitors.

There are several factors that can influence the quality of customer an organization provides.  They can include the training, expertise and experience of customer service staff; availability of support channels such as communication gadgets including emails, phones, and live chats; the efficiency of the support system, and the overall customer experience.

This handbook is an essential companion for every one of us that serves customers, whether we realize it or not.  In other words, everyone needs to improve their customer service skills.
