Transform the Service Experience through Assurance

Assurance can be defined as confidence or certainty in one’s abilities. This confidence in us comes when the customer believes that they are getting excellent service and advice and that they are in the best of hands. The interesting point here is that most customers have no way or really knowing if they are truly in the best of hands and receiving excellent service and advice. They really don’t know if our technicians are technically better than our competitors or if the advice we are providing is the best they can expect from anyone. Because most customers cannot truly assess these things, they look for tangible evidence that gives them clues.

Transform the Service Experience through Reliability

An excellent way to achieve this is to consider each dimension of service quality – in this case Reliability – and define specifically how we will deliver it in a “tangible” way through every customer touch point. We can then assemble representatives from our company stakeholders – technicians, dispatch, sales, management, accounting, administration, and so on, and hold a brainstorming meeting to identify specific steps which can be taken within the context of communicating our reliability.

Increase Revenues Generated by Your Service Techs

Our field service technicians represent a huge opportunity to generate revenues. They have a special relationship with our customers based on a high level of trust. Through that relationship, they have gained a unique understanding of our customers’ goals. They have a practical understanding of the latest in technology and they know our company’s capabilities. Who better than them to recognize and explore opportunities for your company to add more value through more services?

Stop Maintaining Your Mechanical/Electrical Equipment

Yet, what are we doing for the technician to help them to “maintain” this high level of interpersonal performance? What have we done to provide them with the critical people skills needed to excel? What tools and techniques have we given them to interact well with our customers and to handle the challenges of interpersonal relationships while working under pressure – sometimes extreme? What efforts have we made to eliminate processes and policies that detract them from providing exceptional customer service?
