Why Train?
Great companies understand that customers show appreciation for excellent service with their wallets. At the same time, an investment in training creates more engaged employees and managers — increasing their knowledge and upgrading their internal and external customer service skills.
In fact, if you’re wondering, “What if I invest in training and my people leave?” What if you don’t … and they stay?

What Customer Service Is:
- Deliberate (it involves a clear understanding of your customers’ needs and expectations, and the ability to deliver it consistently with each and every encounter).
- Focused (all actions are centered on how they impact your customer — from email and phone etiquette to face-to-face interactions).
- Long-term (building a customer service culture requires an ongoing commitment from leadership).
- Measured (successful service initiatives are measured and monitored).
What Customer Service Isn’t:
- Haphazard (it can’t be an occasional effort or a flavor-of-the-month program).
- Accidental (it can’t happen just because a nice person was hired).
- Inconsistent (it can’t happen to some of your customers some of the time).
- Short-term (there is no quick fix or silver bullet).
