Dealing With The Irate Customer
The guidelines presented in this training video will help you calm angry customers. Once you bring them around, they're more likely to work with you to find a resolution that solves their complaint yet is fair to your organization. This customer service video includes valuable tactics, including:
- Connect with the angry customer
- Show empathy or apologize if appropriate
- Guide the customer's attention toward solving the problem
- Use positive language
- Have the customer make small decisions
- Take a timeout or draw the line

Your employees will learn to stay professional and not take it personally when they have to deal with a difficult customer, whether in retail, health care, government, or wherever. They'll learn that their basic customer service skills are a first line of defense: it's hard for customers to be mean to someone who's being nice to them. And they'll learn three powerful breakthrough techniques that can be used if the situation escalates and threatens to get out of hand. Workbook included in purchase. Additional workbooks available at an additional cost.
