Every business understands the value of the customer experience. Without customers, the business withers away. You may have a desirable product, catchy advertising, and a beautiful building, yet without a solid connection to your customer base, business fails to flourish.  Customer Service is the backbone to any industry . So, just how can you ensure a positive customer service experience. Here are 3 principles of great customer relationships.

Authenticity

Make sure you and the employees are genuine with the customers. Transparency and authenticity are high on the list of importance with people. Why are these qualities so relevant? Let’s consider what happens is a person is NOT authentic. A lack of authenticity leads to a false front or a fake demeanor. This creates a barrier, albeit invisible, it is there and perceived by others. When you are genuinely authentic with others, no barriers get in the way of a connection. And connections are what bring people to a point of loyalty to your business.

A Personal Touch

In this day of mass email marketing, digital communications, and social media, it can sometimes feel like we are communicating more with machines than people. The human factor is so important as people do crave face to face interactions with other people or at the very least phone conversations. A firm handshake, remembering names, and looking someone in the eye during communication goes a long way to solidify the bonds of customer relationships. When businesses seem to care about the customer’s happiness, this goes a long way. One satisfied customer testimonial states, “ they cheered me on every step of the way .”

Helpful

Many businesses can come across as too busy to go the extra mile to be helpful. That is a sure way to lose customers and get a bad reputation. A company that truly cares about its customers will always be willing to extend a helping hand even with things that are not necessarily related to the purchase of a product or service. Customers who are thrilled with a company write reviews such as this, " The staff and facility were very helpful… Will recommend wholeheartedly to all. ” Winning customer loyalty means going beyond the norm to provide excellence. When you have customers saying, “They are vested in your success. Top notch!” then you have succeeded in creating an atmosphere to nurture customer loyalty.
