Customer service can be used as a framework to
look at all aspects of your business:
▫ Image and presentation
▫ Promotion of services
▫ Contact and communication with customers
▫ Service delivery
▫ Monitoring and improving services
▫ Resolving customer problems
▫ Customer relationship management

2.
• Key to customer service is getting all members of your
organisation to embrace it through training and
development, at individual and team level. Creating
a culture of customer satisfaction starts with effective
management and leadership and having clear
measures for customer satisfaction in all aspects of
the business.
• This can be encouraged through:
▫ Benchmarking your activities against other
organisations
▫ Creating and monitoring specific measures of
customer satisfaction
