Top 6 Customer Support Services Tips

Great customer support begins with actually having staff 24 x 7 or at least for the

major part of the day; to assist customers in need of assistance.

You are about to buy a product and then a question enters your mind, you say to

yourself; “wait a minute, this is a Chinese product - does it any warranty?”. If the

description is silent on the issue the customer will do one of two things; either not buy

the item or look for the handy live chat button.

Scene two: A customer has just received a product they purchased but it is not what

was expected. The furious customer visits the site and looks for the customer support.

In this case, Live chat acts like a safety release valve. The customer support can find

out the problem and gently steers the customer towards an acceptable solution of E-

Commerce. Quick redressal ensures that the business retains the customer.

So, Tip 1 is to have a live chat button. Live human support can not only assist a

customer during purchase, they can also provide quick redressal and is a great tool

to customer retention.

Tip 2 is to use technology to the fullest. Don’t hold back. For example, employ cobrowsing

app. This permits your customer support to help steer (say) senior citizens

who might be technologically challenged. Co-browsing helps to steer them through

the site and arrive at the checkout page. For example, a senior citizen trying to buy a

customized mug – one where the customer has to upload an image of a certain

specification. Said photo to be printed on the mug. The steps involved can be quite

challenging and customer support can provide necessary live assistance and ensure

the business is not lost.


Tip 3 is to add an intelligent F.A.Q tool. The F.A.Q page could import data from

the tracking app on the site and find out what the customer was looking at and

therefore, guess what question the customer might have; just like Google.com

completing your query. Such intelligence not only amazes the customer, it helps to

provide quick answers and saves valuable time – especially that of your customer

support staff.

Tip 4 is to use trained customer support staff. Quickly recognising the customer’s

problem and knowing how to steer a customer to a solution is a huge advantage and

helps generate business and retain customers.

Tip 5 is to have adequate customer support staff. Too often one sees a customer

left hanging because available customer support staff are busy attending to other

customers. Nothing is more irritating to a customer than having to wait endlessly.

Tip 6 is to offer apology for any inconvenience. Outsourcing Services

businesses need to accept that their customers time is valuable. Any hiccup at the site,

can cost the customer valuable time.sss

At this stage you might wonder where you would get trained customer support

from and the cost of it. Well, companies such as https://www.staffcloud.biz

have trained virtual staff available for just about anything and moreover, hiring

virtual staff is much cheaper than hiring employees.
