Course Description
Overview:
As a customer service representative, you're expected to handle every customer that comes your way. To be effective, you need not only knowledge of the products or services your company sells, but also people skills that will help you interact with customers in a positive and professional manner. Your level of product or service knowledge may enable you to understand and resolve problems, but without understanding how to properly interact with customers, you can't truly serve the customer. In this course, you will apply important principles and skills you can use as a customer service professional.
In addition to providing basic customer service, you'll also learn important principles and skills you can use to solve difficult and challenging customer interactions, encourage further sales, and take on leadership responsibilities.
