Atricle Dump - Company Policy Does More Damage to Customer Service Than Anything Else
Have you ever asked your self why you work so hard and those around you just do not seem to take work seriously? It is almost as if they could careless if the company succeeds or fails, as all they want to do it get paid. As long as they get a paycheck for showing up and doing halfass work they just do not care one bit.Do you find it difficult to even relate to them or understand why they lack work eth
I know…I know…I’m hearing the roar from the executive peanut gallery…You’ve got to make a profit. Well, let me make something clear hear…you aren’t going to make a profit, or at least not as much profit if you aren’t satisfying the customer. So, what I’m saying is to teach your people how to listen to the customer. Change their perspective from “protecting the compan
That drive to the office seems longer every day; you swear the road has shifted, forcing you to waste time thinking of all the mundane projects you have to finish for a boss who can't remember your name and coworkers who only include you when a birthday's coming up. Maybe, your time could be devoted to another thought: getting out and moving on.Do we have your attention?The sad truth is
o Company Policy
One of the biggest problems is “company policy.” Many company policies are structured to protect the company from the customer instead of helping the customer get what he wants and has paid for. Your success will explode when your company, and your employees are structured with the customers’ wants and needs in mind.
As a customer how many times have you been talking with a sales person, or a customer service rep and hear “sorry we can’t do that, company policy.” A barrier was thrown up between what you think is only reasonable and the company. For me, I’m out of there.
Is the problem “company policy” or is it the employee? It can go either way. Often employees are trying hard to do the job the way they understand it, which can often be that they are there to protect the company from the customer trying to take advantage. That isn’t saying that employee is a “bad” employee. Only that he doesn’t understand what he should be doing. That’s where proper employee training comes in.
o Employee Responsibility
It is the job of the people in your company that are in direct contact with the customers
To discover and understand what the customer really wants, and
Deliver what the customer really wants
When your employee says “can’t…company policy” he has put a barrier up between the customer and you. The customer can no longer get what he wants, at least not from your company.
o Executive or Owner View
I know…I know…I’m hearing the roar from the executive peanut gallery…You’ve got to make a profit. Well, let me make something clear hear…you aren’t going to make a profit, or at least not as much profit if you aren’t satisfying the customer.

When it comes to call center support for customers, there are dual benefits seen for both the consumer and the company. There is a great need for the answering of questions or need for the necessary walkthrough in regards to a service or product that could occur at any hour of the day. This is when the call center for customer support becomes a much needed tool for all of the everyday, unexpected questions th

What do you think about a website that claims to serve 100% free classified ads worldwide? Incredible! Trickery! Insane! Well, no one can use such harsh words if he or she correctly identifies the motivation of a person who has started such a website.The owner of this particular site once put a classified ad in the local newspaper to sell his old vacuum. He advertised he would sell it for $ 100 and the

You decide a particular book will be the perfect holiday gift for Uncle Joe, and you’re surfing the web for a bookseller. Will you visit Amazon.com? Barnesandnoble.com? Ablebooks.com? Powells.com? Addall.com? Or one of thousands of other choices? Chances are, you won’t want to buy from a site you’ve never heard of, so you zero in on Amazon or Barnes & Noble.Such is the power of branding.
I know…I know…I’m hearing the roar from the executive peanut gallery…You’ve got to make a profit. Well, let me make something clear hear…you aren’t going to make a profit, or at least not as much profit if you aren’t satisfying the customer. So, what I’m saying is to teach your people how to listen to the customer. Change their perspective from “protecting the company from the stupid customer” to one of ALWAYS finding a way to help the customer get what he wants.
o Employee Listening to Customer…Communicating Needs to Company
Your employee should be the conduit through the maze of company policies. He knows what the customer needs, he knows what the company policies are, and his job is to take that customer through those company policies to get the customer where he wants to be. He isn’t a policeman stopping the customer at the gate. That hampers the customer. The first helps the customer.
o When Company Policy IS the Barrier
What happens if the company policy truly is a barrier? Then the employee should be the conduit to the company policy setters to help them understand how the company as a whole can better serve the customer by changing company policy.
I am in no way saying, “don’t make a profit.” But when company policy is set up to protect the company from the customer instead of helping the customer your profits will decline. A customer usually only wants what is reasonable.
The solution to company policy barrier: Make sure that your employees are empowered
o To solve the customer problem
o To communicate to the company how the company policy can improve the customer satisfaction instead of impede it.
