Beyond Customer Service

INTRODUCTION

This GLOMACS interactive 5 – day Beyond Customer Service training course will show you how to take your organisation from Good to Great. The Rise (and rise, and rise) of web technologies, of Peer-Review, Price Comparison and auto-switching website have changed the rules of customer engagement irrevocably and forever. The old Marketing books and theories can be torn up. The strategic battleground now is in delivering world-class customer “experiences”. The old models, focusing on Product, Price, Promotion, Place, etc. overlook the fact that the way goods and services are purchased and consumed is now radically different to how they were, even half a generation ago.

Attention-spans are minute, distractions are everywhere, and Social is EVERYTHING. Giving good, even excellent Customer service is no longer anywhere near good enough. The new game is relationships, engagement, dialogues, and world-class experiences. Mapping, planning, and creating these is the purpose of the 5 – day training course and will take you through the latest science, models, and theories on how to get and stay ahead of the curve in the new 24/7/365 "always-on" competitive landscape.

This Beyond Customer Service training course will highlight:

• Why good enough just won't cut it anymore?
• Why value is a uniquely personal concept (and how to deliver it, time after time)?
• Why emotional and irrational are the new sales models?
• How to carve out a market-defining space for your Enterprise (and how to defend it)?
• How to build world-class experiences that get talked about?

Objectives

The objective is to learn and apply the latest scientific and management thinking to the organisation's customer relationships and how to create "Blue Oceans" of strategic differentiation that makes your customers love you and tell others.  We will go far beyond "Good service" (it is no longer "good enough') and give you tools and techniques to carve out unique and sustainable market positions for your organisation and your products or services.

By the end of this Beyond Customer Service training course, the participants will be able to:

• Understand what the true meaning of value is
• Truly understand the mind of the customer; what does he want?
