Topic 1
Establish contact with customers
The quality of customer service provided by an organisation can make or break
it. Good customer service is very important as it encourages customer loyalty,
attracts repeat business and generates new business. Customer service standards
are established by organisations to provide procedures and guidelines for
employees when dealing with customers. The organisational image presented,
the way employees communicate and treat customers, and their knowledge of
products, services and the specific customer needs have an enormous effect on the
success of an organisation.
In this topic you will learn how to:
1A Acknowledge and greet the customer in an appropriate manner
1B Maintain personal dress and presentation
1C Use appropriate interpersonal skills to communicate with customers
1D Maintain sensitivity to customer needs
1E Establish a rapport with the customer

Deliver a service to customers
1A
Acknowledge and greet the customer
in an appropriate manner
Customers are an organisation’s most valuable asset. All employees have a role to
play in building a professional relationship with their customers to ensure they
remain loyal to the organisation. Communicating clearly and effectively with
customers is the key to good customer relationships. Every time an employee
interacts with a customer, they are contributing to the customer’s impression of
the organisation.
The importance of good customer relations
As customers, we expect to receive prompt, friendly and professional service from
someone who knows the organisation’s products and services. To a large extent,
the reputation of an organisation is based on the way employees treat members of
the public and their own colleagues.
Various customer service studies have shown that when a customer is unhappy
with a product or service, rather than making a formal complaint, they simply
stop buying the product or service from that organisation. They also do something
far more damaging – they tell their friends of their bad experience.
To ensure this does not happen in your organisation, you must be able to assess
your customers’ needs and know how your organisation can satisfy them.
Customers come from a range of social, cultural and economic backgrounds. They
have varying physical and mental abilities, and may display emotional behaviour.
To foster good customer relations, you need to be able to deal with all the different
kinds of people you come in contact with.

Deliver a service to customers
Use your voice
The way you say something can be as important as the words you actually use. The
tone of your voice, the speed at which you speak and the volume and pitch of your
voice all affect the impression you make on your customer.
When talking with customers, use a positive language and tone of voice. By the
end of the day, you may be tired and may not feel enthusiastic or patient. However,
maintain your professionalism and remain positive.
Below are some examples of positive phrases to use and negative phrases to avoid
when talking with customers.
Positive phrases
Negative phrases
•• ‘Yes, I can certainly do that for you.’
•• ‘We can’t do that.’
•• ‘I’m sure I can arrange that. Just a
moment and I’ll find out for you.’
•• ‘I’m not sure about that.’
Refer customers
If you need to refer a customer, always tell them what you are doing. For example,
‘Mr Singh, please hold for a moment while I obtain the number for you’.
v1174
If the person the customer wishes to see is unavailable, explain the situation to the
customer and then suggest another person who may be able to assist.

Topic 2
Identify customer needs
Assess the urgency of a request
Some requests are urgent; for example, a customer requires immediate delivery
of a product or wants to make a complaint. Perhaps a customer needs some
information straight away. If so, collect the appropriate material and mail or fax it
to them as soon as you can.
If the customer is a colleague, you can send material through the organisation’s
internal mail system or deliver it personally. Otherwise, prioritise the request.
There are many ways you can assess the urgency of a need.
Below are some ways to assess the urgency of a request.
Ways to assess the urgency of a request
•• Write the requests in your daily work plan and remember to follow them up.
•• Develop a form that records the customer’s needs and requests.
•• Create an urgency rating scale of 1–5, with 5 being the most urgent need.
Example: assess the urgency of a customer request
AAA Electronics is a company that repairs electronic and other equipment. It has developed a
form to assist in assessing the urgency of customer requests. This uses a rating of 1–5, with
5 being the most urgent need.

such as telephone number and office

Practice task 9
Read the case study, then answer the questions that follow.
Case study
Olinda has just started working for a small tour company. A customer comes into the
office and asks for information about a tour to Yandibup, a place Olinda has never heard
of. Her supervisor is not in the office and Olinda starts to feel nervous. She tells the
customer she is not familiar with Yandibup but her supervisor will be able to help when
she returns in an hour. The customer says he can’t wait that long. Olinda takes the
customer’s details and tells him she or her supervisor will call him as soon as possible.
Olinda has a very busy afternoon and completely forgets to tell her supervisor. When she
does remember the customer’s request the following week, she has lost the note with his
phone number.
1. How do you think the customer in this case study would react? How would you react?
2. Imagine you have sent a customer some information they requested about your
organisation’s services. What follow-up procedure could you use?

Part C – Project: Delivering a service to
customers at work
Purpose
You will demonstrate your skills and knowledge by completing a
project in your workplace.
Task overview and
instructions to the
candidate
Using your workplace, select a recent situation where you
delivered a service to customers.
Complete each of these tasks.
1. Imagine you arrive at work and do not conform to the
organisational dress code due to a misunderstanding about
casual dress day. Write an email informing your supervisor
or human resources manager that you have arrived in jeans
today but now fully understand the dress code and will
dress appropriately tomorrow. If you do not know who your
supervisor or human resources manager is, access your
organisational chart.
2. Prepare suitable opening and closing telephone scripts that
could be used in communicating with customers. If these are
documented in your organisation’s procedures, submit these
instead of preparing your own.
3. Using a workplace customer complaint as a scenario,
write an email to the customer that demonstrates that you
understand the problem. Attach copies of the organisation’s
customer service policy and customer complaint procedure
for your assessor’s reference to demonstrate that you are
following correct procedures.
4. Fill out the details of the customer complaint issue on
a customer complaint feedback form and record it in a
customer complaint register (if your workplace has one).
5. Write an email to the rest of your team seeking further
information about this customer complaint and why it may
have happened.
6. Write an email to your supervisor with a proposed resolution
to the customer complaint and seek their support in taking
this recommended course of action.
7. Prepare an email to the customer outlining your proposed
resolution.
8. Imagine that the customer responds to your email and
indicates that they accept the resolution. They thank you for
following this through, but makes a comment that indicates
this has been a really negative experience for them after
having years of fault free service from your organisation.
Prepare an email to the customer that acknowledges and
constructively responds to their criticism.
9. The issue has now been resolved. You need to record the
issue according to your organisation’s requirements by
completing the customer complaint feedback form and, if your
workplace has one, a customer complaint register (including
the feedback from the customer) so there is a record.
