Customer Service Phone Essentials (December 2023)
December 5, 2023 @ 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm AEDT
Customer Service Phone Essentials course (December 2023)
The December 2023 Customer Service Phone Essentials course is designed as a short-duration (3-hour) course perfect for new starters who need to learn the basics of good customer service or for existing employees who are a little stale and have never been taught the fundamentals.
The course goes beyond traditional customer service training tropes such as ‘always have a smile in your voice’ and ‘use the customer’s name 2 or 3 times in a call’.
This program has been three decades in the making and is based on the ACXPA Contact Centre Quality Standards, leveraging the insights and assessment of more than 50,000 phone calls to identify the five core competencies and 18 behaviours directly linked to positively impacting the customer experience.
Crucially, we don’t teach scripts (they don’t work!), but we do provide your employees with a proven, reliable structure for phone calls that will enable them to communicate in key moments with energy, empathy and simplicity.
Included Modules
1. How to Engage
How to create a strong first impression and impact at the start of any phone call by showing strong ownership and intent, managing expectations and building trust and confidence to set up the call for success.
2. How to Close
How to create a lasting final impression and confident finish to conversations through a simple method of strong final checks, expressions of gratitude and thanks in a warm farewell. Staff will learn how to avoid those often awkward, clunky finishes.
3. How to Educate
Participants learn how to proactively educate customers through consistent checks of understanding and comfort with key information provided. to gain verbal nods and insight to make good judgements as to what else is needed.
4. Energy & Empathy
Exploration of the critical phone communication techniques and underlying psychology behind acknowledging and empathising with customer concerns and objections.
They will learn how to diffuse emotion and take ownership to satisfy both a customer’s emotional and transactional needs.
The modules are designed to have an immediate impact – delivering improved customer service outcomes for your business and providing improved confidence for your employees when interacting with customers over the phone.
