Target Audience

Along with customer service reps, the course is ideal for scientists and other technical professionals called on to respond to inquiries, troubleshoot problems, or clearly explain products or procedures. Also applicable to jobs that require communicating with diverse, non-technical audiences—such as sales, marketing, purchasing, QA/QC, or compliance.

Course Description

It’s said that customer service is not a department; it’s everyone’s job—or, for this course, all those who write to a customer or prospective customers. Your message is the company, inseparable from the product quality, the technical results, and the quality of service customers expect. This interactive workshop covers how to maintain customer satisfaction and build brand loyalty when responding in writing to customer inquiries, requests for information or help with products and methods, as well as handling complaints. All correspondence—from email to project updates—reflects your technical competence and your organization’s image and credibility.
