Great Customer Service

First, ask yourself...
Is there a disconnect between the level of service you provide, and what your customer expects?

In today's highly competitive marketplace, your customers have many choices and options. One of the key reasons that they will choose to work with you (or your competition) comes down to the level of service they receive. But average service simply is not good enough anymore; you need to provide outstanding, above-and-beyond service every single time - and the ONLY way to do that is to shift your paradigm so that you can evaluate the service you provide, from the eyes of your customer.

You should ask yourself questions like: What do they experience? How do they feel about our service? What do they really want? What else can we be doing to make things even better for them?

Just because YOU feel you did a great job doesn't mean they feel the same way, and their opinion is the only one that really matters. In order to make sure your customers have an A+ experience every time, you should evaluate every aspect of your service (from their eyes) and decide if there are any parts that could be fixed, changed, eliminated or improved to enhance their experience.
