Use Layman Language: While talking and responding to the customer, always use layman language. It is not advised to use heavy and industry standard Jargons to the Customer. The language should be easy to understand.

Show Courtesy: It is highly advisable to use demonstrate courtesy to the customer. Use words like ‘Please’ and ‘Thank you’. For example: “Sir, can I please have your contact Details.”

Always Stay Positive: Be prepared to hear some very negative comments from the customer. But no matter what, don’t reply back in negative way. Always stay positive and when the customer asks for something you don’t know, it advisable t say “Sir, I will confirm and let you know” instead of “I don’t know about this”.

Preferred Channel of Communication: For running a successful customer oriented business, one needs to make sure he/she values the customers time. In the end, it is always important to ask the customer their preferred channel of communication whether it is email, call or messaging.
