The Cost Of Poor Customer Service
In any business the kind of customer service that a customer receives can mean the difference between the success and failure of the business. When sales lag, the way many businesses reduce their costs is by reducing their staff and cutting back on training the ones left behind.
You can spend hundreds or even thousands of dollars advertising your business to get a customer to purchase your product or service the "first time", but it will be far more difficult to get that dissatisfied customer to return to your business the second time. Statistically it costs five times as much to get a new customer as it does to keep an existing one.
If you want your customers to receive consistent, exceptional service, your employees need to be trained. Customer service training for your staff will not only assist them in providing amazing customer service, it will prepare them to handle and deal with difficult customers.
Economists are forecasting that Canada is going to experience a major labour shortage within the next few years and you don't want to be in a situation where you cannot operate your business to capacity as a result of there being a shortage of well trained, professional employees.
