Inside this material

Customers remember how a business made them feel, and much of that comes down to everyday communication. This e-learning material starts with the foundations: active listening, asking the right questions, and writing replies that are clear, polite and easy to act on, whether by email, chat, phone or social media.

The levels build from routine enquiries to more demanding situations, such as delivering unwelcome news, explaining a delay, managing expectations and calming frustrated customers without making promises you cannot keep. You also look at adapting tone for different customers and cultures, and at keeping messages consistent across a team.

Later material covers creating simple guidelines and reusable templates for your own business, so every customer receives the same standard of care wherever they get in touch.
