Be a Customer C.H.A.M.P.I.O.N.
What does being a customer C.H.A.M.P.I.O.N. require? It requires four critical elements:
- Customer Focus
- Effective Listening
- Critical Thinking
- Working Together
In today’s competitive environment if you lose customer focus, someone else will be there to win your customer. Knowing and understanding your customers’ requirements and staying focused on their needs is essential to keeping them. Master the art of maintaining a clear focus on your customers’ requirements and you will have a customer for life.
Learn how to really listen. There is no substitute for good listening--it makes the conveyor of the message feel valued. Effective listening reduces mistakes while building solid business relationships. Listening is a vital communication skill proven as the fundamental building block to establishing lasting customer relations.
Think more critically and systematically. Thinking is your competitive edge. Customers are more demanding than ever. The pressure is on--everyone wants their needs met in shorter and shorter time intervals. How do we keep pace with demand? The one discerning factor is how you think and how you use your “thinking” to respond to customers’ needs.
Working together is essential for the success of the business. There is much talk about WIN/WIN in the workplace; however, it takes effort and understanding to put it into practice. Experience what it takes to become a cohesive and productive team.
