Most recently, she worked at a $5 billion corporation, responsible for their service strategy.
Susan begins delivering e-seminars with Business Expert Webinars in July 2009 and is offering three e-learning classes that compliment one another: Customer Service for a Social Media World is designed to help employees and their managers differentiate themselves from their competition through their delivery of customer service, identify triggers that set-off customers, avoid the expressions that drive customers nuts and the ones that cause them to fall in love with your company all over again, change from being reactive to proactive in your delivery of customer service, and handle tough customers who have valid, as well as invalid, complaints. Advanced Customer Service Planning for Services Firms helps managers assess the customer service elements most important to your clientele, establish performance standards and measurements for your customer service program, communicate with all of your employees about the importance of customer service and their role in shaping the experience, teach your employees to deliver proactive customer service so they wow your clients, and design a service recovery and escalation plan for when issues occur…because they will happen. Use Customer Service to Win Loyal Clients helps managers differentiate their organization by making client satisfaction pervasive throughout. Specifically, managers will create a vision and commitment to deliver high-level service, assess your organization's structure to ensure it is best aligned to deliver on your service commitment, develop a rewards and recognition program to ensure your employees deliver customer service the way you want, hire employees that share your service values, solicit input from your clients on your service performance … so you can deliver the experience they expect, and establish service performance measurements that matter.
