    Customer Service: The Good, The Bad and The Ugly

    Send us Fan Mail I'm sharing a frustrating refrigerator delivery as a real-life lesson in how communication can shape—or damage—a customer’s entire experience. In this episode, Pam discusses: Every customer interaction is a first impression. Third-party vendors still reflect your brand. Clear, honest communication matters. Customer service teams need communication training. Companies should review the “first mile,” not just the last mile. Strong customer service means treating people with respect, cutting through the clutter and doing everything possible to resolve the issue the first time.   Is your company saying the same things over and over but the message isn't getting through to your staff or clients? It seems like a great time to schedule a Communications Audit and make sure your messaging is clear to everyone.  Let's schedule a time to talk if you are interesting in supporting your staff.  ------------------------------------------------------------------------ To contact Pam about conducting a session for your company, email her at pam@pamelalippitt.com or connect on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/pamelalippitt or visit www.pamelalippitt.com Pamela Lippitt is CEO and Chief Communicator of Pamela Lippitt Communications (formerly Hill Street Group) is a public speaker, workshop trainer and helps people improve their communication skills.
