Top 5 Customer Service Practices to Implement Right Now
5 Essential Customer Service Practices for 2021
Meet Expectations
Meeting customers’ expectations is one of the initial benchmarks that any business sets – if you’re not already meeting your customers’ expectations, you’re missing out on repeat sales, which can amount to major gains for any organization. Don’t miss out on easy revenue! Make every interaction count.
Gain Trust
It’s safe to say the pandemic has made us more critical of who we do business with. We value trustworthiness more than ever before. We’re shrewd in who we give personal information to and how we spend our hard-earned dollars. According to Salesforce’s report, 82% of customers say that a company’s trustworthiness matters more than a year ago. It’s important to build relationships by gathering customer data, but in 2021, it’s critical to collect it in a way that draws shoppers along the customer journey with confidence.Get Feedback
Consider getting feedback as an important process of the whole customer service process. As much as we all hate receiving negative feedback from unhappy customers, listen and rectifying issues is critical to any customer support strategy. In fact, 78% of customers are willing to forgive a company for its mistake after receiving excellent customer service.Focus on Customization
52% of customers expect offers to be personalized to them. Customers need to think that they have been given preference and are being served accordingly. Companies can do this by collecting customer data and using their CRM to personalize their experience.Be Accessible
According to Salesforce’s report, 54% of customers expect companies to expand engagement methods. It’s important to note that the majority of that 54% were Gen Z and Millennial shoppers. For these shoppers, it’s not enough to offer a toll-free customer service phone line. Many of them would rather connect through live chats and social media channels like Facebook and Twitter. Whether they send you a direct message or simply voice their frustrations on your Business Profile page, it’s important to let them know you’re listening and understand their concerns.Salesforce Service Cloud and your Customer Service Strategy
