MenuI am a trainer in Client Care as opposed to Customer Service. What business sectors do you feel need the most help?
Companies spend a fortune on customer acquisition and then apathy sets in; most never invest in keeping the customer. I train in changing the mindset from customer to client. What types of businesses do you see as the best prospects for me?
Answers
With more than a decade of experience in top services firms (Technology products and financial products), being an ex-VP in Client servicing area, and realizing the impact good client servicing can have in keeping and growing your brand- I do know what you are talking about! The sectors which I feel need the most are- new/few years old startups (specifically service startups), they are so busy managing acquisitions, that they are forgetting servicing and retaining their already existing customers despite knowing that switching costs for these customers are ZERO and their competitors- many! Also, telecom & product support companies are lagging in this area. Hope this helps. I will be happy to have you arrive at a personal business plan for you to start building your training business in this area. Pls feel free to schedule a call or email me at ceo@flatheels.co
Does your training include a special a method or application for Client Care?
Is it one off training or continuous program with achievable targets? What is the impact after you change the mind set from customer to client?
If I was in your shoes, I would develop a bulletproof method/software/etc... for managing customer relations, train establishments and contract them for a period of time with full commitment to increase their overall client services.
There is no "best prospects", every business needs customer care..
Sure there are best sectors for any type of business. Pick a lane (niche) and get in it. Don't change the sector until you have mastered the first one unless an incredible offer is presented to you.
Which niche do you pick? Healthcare? That is up to you. Go with your passion on the niche because you can never be guaranteed of profit. However, profit comes more easily to those who are passionate about what they do.
Best of Luck,

I believe client care industries will be best for you. You can try in the following sectors if you want to:
1. Financial services: Pension plans, life insurance, retail banking and fund managers
2. Real estate: Property owners, fund managers, REITs, and property managers
3. Retail: Grocers, general retailers, entertainment, and industry associations
4. Hospitality: Hotel owners, brand management companies, convention centres, industry associations and eco-certification bodies
5. Media and communications: Broadcasting, publishing, and technology infrastructure providers
6. Information technology: Sustainability management systems and technology solutions
7. Energy: Pipelines, integrated oil and gas, renewable and conventional energy generation, transmission, and distribution
8. Transportation: Rail freight, high-speed rails, port terminal operations, shipping, and airports

Is it OK to end services or support when a customer did not pay the cost of services/support or did not renewal contract in software industry?
If I understand you correctly, you're saying a customer agreed to pay you for services (product and/or support), either through posted prices and a shrink-wrapped license or through a written contract, and then you provided those services, and then they didn't pay? And you're asking whether it's "OK" that they didn't pay? Of course it's not OK! Is there any business who could operate in that fashion? The way it affects the customer relationship is you don't have a customer relationship. You have a situation where they are taking advantage of you. A relationship goes in two directions.JC

What are the best examples you've heard of when a Business went above and Beyond?
Studying customer experience is fascinating, and one of my favorite parts of my work as a customer service strategist. Zappos is one of my favorite examples of incredible customer service. They regularly upgrade orders to overnight shipping and they allow you to return shoes even after you've worn them. Recently, I had a massage at a nice local spa. I was quite surprised to find a hand written card in my mailbox just two days later from the massage therapist. She thanked me for my business and let me know she looked forward to my next visit. I will only book with her from now on! It's the little things, truly, that can make you stand out. The upgraded shipping and free returns (of worn shoes, even!) costs Zappos, sure. And the card from the spa took time and thought. But those things stand out in my mind and the minds of other customers. If you'd like to dive deeper on this, I'd love to schedule a call. Thanks for the question!VG

How can a customer leave me feedback?
If you are talking about online feedback through a website, I'd suggest Feefo or Hotjar. There are plenty of other solutions, but those are really easy to set up. You could also factor in customer feedback requests into any email marketing you are doing and this kind of thing can be automated through all the major email service providers.SC
