Customer Service Book Review: Super Service

Customer Service Book Review: Super Service: Seven Keys to Delivering Great Customer Service… by Jeff Gee and Val Gee

If you’re looking for a book with basic, useful, down to earth customer service advice, you should look at this one. It’s a veteran and it’s written by customer service veterans who know their business. This book is a fast reading one but it has a lot of punch for the price.

They start by talking about Service. Not customer service but the true meaning of service, that is, helping others. They help us understand right away, we’re all here to help others.

The authors have sprinkled this book liberally with “how-to” items so you can put their suggestions to work right away. I love this! They also cover the important subject of how we can keep ourselves motivated to serve others well all the time.

Because it’s a book on customer service basics, you’ll find there here. Sections on attitude, understanding customers, how to reach agreement and communications. They also cover the issues of stress (and how to avoid burnout) and working with angry customers.

This is a valuable book for anyone who wants to deliver better service to their customers or who manages people who work directly with customers.

Service Recovery

Are Your Customer Service Recoveries Really Recoveries?

Recently my wife picked up dinner for 4 on the way home from work. We had ordered online from Swiss Chalet (Canadian Rotisserie chicken franchise). Swiss Chalet is known for their dipping sauce, which is included with every signature meal.

When she arrived home, we discovered that the “special sauce” was not included in the order.

I called the order desk to report this lapse and the conversation went something like this.

Technology

Customer service and Twitter

The popular notion stating that if a customer receives poor service, he/she will tell nine other people, has been grossly out of date since the advent of the Internet. In reality, customers can electronically tell millions of people about their experiences. And now, with Twitter, people can tell others about their experiences as they happen.

Feedback

How to get amazing online reviews from your customers

More and more customers are going online before AND after they do business with a company. They’re getting smart about using online tools to make the best decision about who they do business with.

To thrive in this new world of connected customers you need to do more than ever to make sure your customers get the experience they want. If you do this well you can leverage the power of online feedback and reviews to grow your business. If you fail at this, the online chatter about your business can tarnish your reputation both online and off.
