It's personal for the customer and for you

Rick Stein on customer service

The aim
To encourage front-line staff to behave in ways they will help them provide a high level of service to customers.

About the programme
A focus on customer care will pervade everything that a successful organisation does. But however supportive and positive the culture, in the end it's down to the individual relationships that members of staff have with each of their customers. Getting it wrong, even in small way, has repercussions for the individual and for the organisation.

It's Personal - for the customer and for you (20 mins) looks at how TV chef and successful businessman, Rick Stein and his team approach customer service. It's a positive approach that works whether it's face-to-face - in their restaurants, hotels, shops - or on the telephone - in their mail order and reservations departments. It provides a model for the behaviours and attitudes that underpin great customer care whatever an organisation does.

There are two additional supporting videos: It's personal for the organisation too (11 mins) focuses on good practice in leading and managing customers service: It's personal - but don't take it personally! (5mins) give pointers for dealing with difficult customers

Give'em the pickle

The aim
To achieve total customer satisfaction.

About the programme
We're all in the same business...the people business. "Our business is not what we sell, it's who we serve!" Our job then is to make customers happy and what's the best way to do that? Give'em the pickle!

Give'em the pickle! is hosted by Bob Farrell, perhaps one of the most impassioned and motivational speakers on customer service today. Pickles are those special or extra things you do to make people happy. It's walking the customer to the item they're looking for rather than pointing, sending a "thank you" note for their business, or simply calling them by name. The trick is figuring out what your customers want and then making sure they get it. That's the pickle.

Give'em the pickle! is contagious! Everyone has Pickles to give. Pickles are not about giving discounts or spending more money on customers. They are about going the extra distance for the customer - taking the time to really listen to the individual customer's needs and then offering a specific service or solution to meet it.

bullet

Service - Make serving others your #1 priority.

bullet

Attitude - Choose your attitude.

bullet

Consistency - Set high service standards and live them every day.

bullet

Teamwork - Look for ways to make each other look good.

Who sold you this then?

Effective after-sales service

The aim
To give service staff an appreciation of the skills required to satisfy customers and represent the business in a professional light.

About the programme
Charlie, a service repair man, is called out to a number of typical service scenarios, but on each occasion he manages to criticise everything that's important to his business - the products he services, his customer, the salesperson they originally dealt with and his organisation itself. The realistic scenes are not only amusing and highly watchable, but make some clear points about the role that service staff should be undertaking.

When repairing a couple's washing machine, Charlie shows no compassion that they are knee-deep in water, and just compounds their distress by criticising the product's design and safety features. Next he is faced with a broken photocopier which a business needs urgently repaired, but just blames the organisation for not looking after it correctly and for not calling him sooner.

At a computer centre a hi-tech machine has failed and needs a new part, but Charlie's call to head office gives the customer the impression that his company is inefficient and unable to help. Finally, when looking at a householder's faulty burglar alarm, he criticises the engineer and salesperson before him, leaving the customer confused and unhappy.

When Charlie sees the light, viewers will appreciate that his role is as a trouble-shooter not a trouble-maker. He visits a restaurant to repair an oven and leaves the chef delighted with the service, taking out a new service contract and an order for a kitchen upgrade.

An Inside Job

23 Minutes

Description

In a hotel scenario, an investigator is called in to investigate mismanagement, and identifies how people in departments not dealing with customers are actually letting external customer service down. Three steps to creating an effective internal customer perspective are identified: Identify your internal customers consult them about their needs Serve them as though they were external customers.

Remember me?

The aim
Learn key customer service skills necessary to retain customers.

About the programme
There is no doubt about it. Good customer service is as good as common courtesy. But common courtesy can be hard to find these days. Nothing illustrates this more effectively than Remember Me. Updated and expanded, this 3rd edition Remember Me continues to instil a timely and timeless message: treat the customer as an individual and you will be rewarded with loyal patronage for years.

A hapless, harried customer. That's who you'll meet in Remember Me: A customer just like you who turns to businesses like yours and receives less than ideal service (to put it mildly). Here's a customer who has been doing business in the same places for years and yet is treated like a stranger - and worse. A customer who is about to be fed up and take his business elsewhere - and share his negative experiences with friends and associates. Because not all customers complain, some simply take their business elsewhere.

It's a 10-minute gem that's easily adaptable to current training programmes. It's also an ideal training tool around which an entire training programme can be developed. Either way you'll have unforgettable customer service training at your disposal.

The 3rd Edition has also been expanded to include Meeting Opener and Meeting Closer segments that emphasise the message of Customer Service at it's best.

Demanding customers

Customer care made PERFECT

The aim
To give all types of customer-facing staff the rules for achieving customer satisfaction - even when handling the most demanding people.

About the programme
Demanding customers is an amusing video that demonstrates the techniques for making demanding customers satisfied. Several realistic scenarios draw on the everyday experiences of front-line staff and the different characters they face up to: Mr Snappy, Mrs Picky, Mr Yappy and Ms Flash.

In a wrong-way scenario, the video shows how easy it is to enrage and frustrate these demanding customers. Then, when the staff adopt the PERFECT technique - being polite, efficient, respectful, friendly, enthusiastic, cheerful and tactful - they manage to change the outcome.

The simple but effective lessons are highly memorable - easy to adopt and put into practice at all levels across any organisation that deals with customers.

In the customer's shoes

Improve the quality of your customer service

The aim
To ensure all staff deliver great customer service by changing their attitude.

About the programme
Most trainers already teach their people how to deal with customers, whether face to face or on the phone. But it's no good going through the process unless they have the right attitude. This video introduces scenes in a shop, an airline call centre, a bank, a hospital and on public transport to show how all frontline staff can do better, and offers a five-step model for getting it right.

The objectives of the programme are to get people to:

bullet

Treat customers as they would want to be treated themselves

bullet

Try to do a little bit extra to exceed expectations

bullet

Understand good customer service is everyone's responsibility

bullet

Be aware that good service goes straight to the bottom line, because bad service loses customers

If looks could kill

The power of behaviour

The aim
To ensure customer-facing staff learn how their behaviour can be used to improve customers' attitudes, and create new sales opportunities.

About the programme
How people behave when dealing with customers or colleagues can determine the success or failure of each interaction. In this spoof detective case, careless failure has created a victim. At the doctor's, at the shoe shop, in the post office and at the station, a customer was driven to distraction by careless behaviour. A detective must piece together a customer's movements to see how several suspects' behaviour led to his demise.

Three key pieces of evidence result from his enquiries:

bullet

Behaviour breeds behaviour

bullet

Behaviour is a choice

bullet

Behaviour can be used to help a transaction.

This light-hearted video raises some simple but key issues, and expresses them in a professional, down-to-earth manner. Any staff seeing this video will learn how to deal with customers by being professional and choosing their behaviour. Personal problems and prejudices should be hidden, and customers should be welcomed and put at their ease.

The benefits

bullet

Engaging, amusing and realistic scenarios

No complaints?

Complaints and the customer

The aim
To ensure people learn how to handle complaints and help prevent them from recurring in the future.

About the programme
Research shows that one in ten transactions ends in a complaint, yet these same complaints happen again and again. No complaints? tackles the link between customer satisfaction and quality, and provides viewers with five steps to solving the customer's problem.

Set within a retail outlet, front-line staff are facing complaints from internal and external customers. The existing solution is a complaints form, but a member of staff soon realises that customers need to let off steam, not fill in forms. Staff learn that they must take complaints seriously and show sympathy, since it is difficult to remain angry with someone who is sympathetic.

The video shows a number of common mistakes. One staff member handles a complaint, but realises he must ask questions if he is to be capable of solving a problem. And when an accounts clerk comes up with an innovative solution for one of her supplier's payment problems, she agrees a course of action but fails to check that it can be carried out.

The conclusion is that all staff, whether in the front line or not, should be aware of how to deal with the emotions and practicalities or dealing with complaints .

Excellent customer service comes when all your staff are committed. It is not just the front line staff who need to be customer aware, who build and maintain the relationship. Front line staff rely on others in the organisation to deliver their promises.

There is a detailed Trainer’s Guide to assist you in preparing for the training session, as well as a Self-study Guide for those who want to work alone.

The happy accident

22 minutes

Description

The key to a quality approach to work is a quality approach to people – as The happy accident sets out to demonstrate in the story of Dave Manning (Mel Smith), a rude, inconsiderate taxi driver with absolutely no concept of customer care.
Fate strikes Dave a cruel blow when he injures his foot. He subsequently finds himself at the mercy of a bus driver, doctor, salesman, travel agent, consultant, car mechanic and bank manager.
The bus driver exploits his position of power

The doctor fails to reassure Dave by not being interested in him

The salesman only talks about himself and his products

The travel agents chat while Dave waits for service

The consultant is arrogant and the mechanic lies, blinds Dave with science and uses delaying tactics. Only the bank manager is ready to listen, respond and help – as well as taking the opportunity to build a basis for further business.
Dave comes to realise that it is only by seeing things from the customer’s point of view that people develop the skills needed to deal with customers – internal and external – effectively.

In the excitement of a new deal don't forget loyal and long term customers.

Ensure your staff keep their existing client relationships at the front of their minds.

The deal is all but closed, and the new customer is getting everyone's full attention. "Treat him like gold dust," says the MD, and they do.

Tower Assurance used to be treated like gold dust too. But they've been using Nicholson's for years now, and the treatment they get is rather different.

Who Killed the Customer? puts customer relations under the microscope - and shows why every customer, old or new, should get VIP treatment.

The guest

Everything you already knew about great customer service

The aim
To reinforce the fact that everyone has the power to create a positive experience with a customer.

About the programme
Great customer service begins in a place we're all familiar with - the home. People know how to take care of guests, welcome them, thank them for coming and invite them back. And treating a customer in a business should be no different.

For a manager, improving customer service means more than just implementing a policy. It means changing behaviour, so that every time someone walks in the door, the staff must decide how they're going to treat them - as an interruption, or as a welcome guest.

This programme helps people see how their role fits in with the objectives of the business, and reinforces the fact that everyone already knows how to treat a customer - with a common-sense approach.

The benefits

bullet

One of the world's best-selling customer care videos

Emphasis is placed on the 'LAST' mnemonic. Staff will learn to 'listen' to the customer, 'apologise' personally, 'solve' the problem, and 'thank' the guests for their business, so achieving resolution of the problems - and satisfying the customer.
