I think everyone would agree that great customer experiences require service representatives to always remain positive and profession no matter the situation. Investing in Customer Service Training is the best way to teach all of the strategies you mentioned above while giving your employees opportunities to practice their new skills.

I have found that 'experiencing your customer service' as a customer - is often the most eye-opening for employees. After all we are all experienced customers and know what we like and don't like. When they experience the company's service - it gives them new insights into how they can improve their reactions to customers.

Effective but still its the same thing your competitors are doing. How can you create your business stand out? Well any business should be focusing on customer convenience online. Now give them a human interface that will give personal purchase or sale online. This is something that will make your business stand out in the market. Live chat customer service can not only create competitive edge but will also satisfy your customers.
