Top Tips From The Show
- If you SELL something you can create a customer today, but if you HELP someone, you can create a customer for life.
- When you answer someone’s complaint, it takes a bad situation and makes it better – but if you don’t answer someones complaint it takes a bad situation and makes it worse. Jay’s advice is you must answer everybody!
- No response is a response – that says ‘we don’t care’.
- Answer every complaint, in every channel, every time.
