Ep 75. The Art of Customer Service: Crafting Experiences That Wow
Customer service encompasses the support provided to customers, beginning even before they reach out, particularly in the realm of social media. It involves clear communication of identity, services offered, and accessibility. Andy Fersella's Rolls Royce example highlights the role of branding in enticing customers.
Customer experience is at the heart of service, focusing on how customers feel during interactions, such as feeling respected, understood, confident, and excited. Effective complaint handling involves prompt and empathetic responses, like Erica's approach to addressing a missed service issue.
Communication, both with customers and within the team, is crucial, often requiring a balance between emails and phone calls for appropriate situations. Follow-up after service is key for ensuring customer satisfaction and should be integrated into workflows for accountability.

Wow!
Amazing content for anyone interested in the business or any entrepreneurial journey for that matter. I’m on episode 43 and can’t get enough. I’m going to be upset when I get caught up and can’t binge and have to wait a whole week for the next episode! I have been setting up my business and hope to have my first client(s) soon, and it’s all thanks to you for your content giving me the knowledge and confidence to get started. Looking forward to more content!

Smart podcast
Great insight Erica. I learned a lot of business skills from the podcast. Thanks for the help Erica!
A real business owner
Erica is legit! I started my own business off of an interview she did a few years ago and she’s been dropping knowledge ever since. One of the most transparent and real business owners you can find on the internet. Definitely recommend this podcast if you’re starting your own scooping business!
