Strategies for Service Excellence
Overview:
In the age of parity products, having satisfied and loyal customers often determines whether an organisation has a competitive advantage. A reputation for outstanding customer service is a tremendous competitive advantage, but also one that is very difficult to achieve and maintain.
Customer service requires the daily interface of a large number of employees and customers. It is in these “moments of truthâ€, where employees and customers meet during the delivery of service that successes and failures are measured.
Services therefore need to have well integrated external and internal strategies, especially in terms of marketing, people and operations. Through the effective delivery of service, these strategies influence the involvement, satisfaction and retention of both customers and employees, which in turn drive the profitability of the firm.
Customer retention and referral has become the lifeblood of any business, therefore, the profitable delivery of value to customers should be the concern of any business enterprise.
