Customer Service Week: Tips for Kenyan Companies

Published on October 8, 2019, companies worldwide, including those in Kenya, have been celebrating Customer Service Week by sending messages of goodwill to their clients.

According to Forbes, each organization should have its unique approach to interacting with customers. To achieve this, companies can follow these four essential tips:

Firstly, listen attentively to customer complaints without interrupting. Allow them to express themselves fully before responding.

Secondly, identify the root cause of the problem and find a suitable solution.

  • Acknowledge and apologize for any inconvenience caused, even if the company is not at fault.
  • Hold a meeting of minds to find a mutually beneficial solution.

Lastly, resolve the issue as promised and follow up with the customer to confirm that the problem has been addressed.
