DELIVERING A FANTASTIC CUSTOMER SERVICE AND EXPERIENCE
Delivering a fantastic customer service and experience is one of the most important aspects of any business.
This ranges from the initial point of contact right through to the after sale service.
​
The difference between merely satisfactory delivery and fantastic delivery can often be attention to detail. Every detail - no matter how small.
​
A successful business must never lose its focus on its customers and maintaining its standards.
​
We can help you with this in a number of different ways - ranging from ' mystery shopping ' type contact followed by
in depth feedback through to informal / formal training inputs for you and your staff.
​
Many companies are on TripAdvisor these days. However, feedback from this site can be random and not always very
balanced.
Our feedback would be balanced, targeted and very specific - with the aim of helping you to improve your customer service.

COACHING / MENTORING
If you ask any successful business person and, if they are being honest, they will almost certainly admit to having benefited from the advice of a mentor at some point
along the way.
​
' In January 2015 I needed someone to talk to about how to develop my business -someone who would listen, someone who I could trust, who was independent, someone who had experienced what I was going through - sort of ' been there and done that '. I wanted practical, down to earth, plain speaking advice - I needed that person to be flexible and
affordable ... I never really found them' , Howard recalls.
We now offer this service - totally bespoke and tailored to what you and your business need.
___________
​
TRAINING
We can offer training inputs on a range of different business related subjects.
​
These can be one to one inputs or to larger groups.
​

​
BUSINESS SIT
This sevice is offered with smaller businesses in mind.
Howard explains ' We used to go away on holiday - perhaps a week abroad in the sun or for a few days in the UK. We
would get in the car, travel a few miles and then the mobile phone would ring and because I was self employed and a small business owner, I would have to take the call. If I didn't take the call, no one else would and I would potentially miss a client. In the Hotel room I would constantly be checking and answering emails - it drove my wife mad ! It also meant that I never got away to truly relax and recharge my batteries '
​
One solution is to have a PA - but that comes at an ongoing cost and is there enough work for them throughout the year ?
​
The answer could be our ' Business Sit ' service - employing someone you can trust to check and answer your emails together with taking telephone calls whilst you are away - effectively keeping your business ' ticking over ' - giving you the opportunity to get way, relax and enjoy your well deserved break.
