The role of the Customer Relations department is quite important, since it handles mainly customers’ concerns and complaints, therefore, the manner in which this task is accomplished has an immediate effect on the company’s brand image as well as customer satisfaction.
With this consulting intervention, we aim to enhance all forms of communication with the customer (whether oral or written) and to also make the role of the department within the company prominent.
This intervention usually includes the following Stages:
- Gaining knowledge of the current situation: Management Briefing, studying customer satisfaction surveys, on-site visits, interviewing the people who work for the customer relations department, observation, co-listening, recording and studying relevant data.
- Identifying the desired situation: Identification of priorities and goals (quantitative and qualitative) based on findings from Stage (1). Making a plan of on-site visits, actions and timeframe.
