Really Angry Customer

Part of the Just a Call Away Series on telephone skills.

Customers become angry when they have unmet expectations and the situation is not handled well. It is imperative that your CSRs know how to calm the customer and get the information needed to deal effectively with their issues.

This program uses the story of a frazzled customer with a legitimate complaint to show how important it is to handle these situations properly. The last thing the caller in this drama needs is another setback!

After watching The Really Angry Customer, participants learn to:

• Deal with customers who may be in attack mode
• Turn low quality information into high quality information
• Ask questions without antagonizing the caller
• Focus on what can be done for the customer
• Recognize limits and how/when to transfer a call
• Remain calm and in control throughout the call
• See difficult call experiences as learning opportunities
