How to Respond Positively To Angry Consumer Complaints on the Phone

As a business, you may have received phone calls from customers who have called to complain about some bug in the service. Sometimes the customer complaint comes from a very angry customer and having an ineffective or aggressive customer service executive at the other end can make things worse for your business and damage your reputation. In this post we show you how to handle angry consumer complaints.

How to Handle Telephonic Consumer Complaints

One of the first things, you will need to train your customer support staff in is that they should always respond politely and positively to customer complaint. At GLOBAL TREE CONSUMER COMPLAINTS over the phone are viewed as an opportunity to self-introspect and improve any areas that need improving.

One thing that should be remembered that the customer is mostly right. Maybe you are an efficiently run business and offer the best services, but if the customer feels dissatisfied and complains about it, it is in your business’s best interest to take the complaint seriously and not ignore it. Ignoring a consumer complaint can actually make things much worse for your business and brand. So, what should one do in case a consumer complains on the phone? Train your support executives to do the following

• 1.       Take time to politely listen to and understand the complaint.
• 2.   Fix the problem as soon as possible. If the problem cannot be fixed at your level, then     immediately escalate it to the next level, without having the customer wait for a few days
• 3.  Give the customer a specific and honest response time if the complaint cannot be fixed  immediately. In companies like GLOBAL TREE COMPLAINTS are responded to as quickly as possible or the consumer is given an updated response time.
• 4.     Talk in a positive manner and do not let the customer rile you no matter how angry he is. It is   not fair that you have to take the brunt of their anger, but you would be doing the business a lot of good if you can convert an angry customer into a happy one.
• 5.     If the customer has also posted the same complaint on social media, then respond positively   with a message of assurance, there as well.
• 6.      Provide the customer with constant updates about the complaint if it’s going to take some time   to fix.

It is important to remember that the customer is not interested in long chats, but just wants his problem to be fixed as quickly as possible. So, encourage your support staff to not ask inane and long questions about how their day is going, but rather fix the problem as quickly as possible.

The Bane of Fake Complaints – How to Safeguard Your Business

The most harrowing experience for anyone selling a product or a service is getting a complaint from a consumer. After all your prototype testing and beta testing, having your product throw an error at the hands of a consumer is indeed a significant point for introspection. Even when is providing a service and has invested a lot of time and money in training employees, sometimes customers are not happy with the quality of service and complain about it in online forum which is obviously not welcomed by most companies. However, when the complaint is genuine it can actually be helpful to the company as it allows for self-introspection and a chance to improve.

The problem really arises when the complaint is a fake one that has specifically been planted by trolls just for fun, or a rival company who is trying to undermine the ratings of the company. In such a scenario what should you do?  We share a few tip

Tips for Dealing with Fake Complaints

At GLOBAL TREE COMPLAINTS are few and far between, but even a popular company like it has to face complaints that are not genuine. We share a few tips on what to do if you suspect or are convinced that the complaint is not a genuine one

• 1.       Do not call out the complainant - You may be tempted to call out the complainant and claim that the complaint is fake. You should never do that even if you have the required evidence to back up your claim. The reason is this can damage your reputation with your existing and prospective customers as they may feel that you are trying to deflect criticism
• 2.       Do not feed the Trolls – what this means is that, when a complain is seen by you on an online forum do not go into a self-defensive mode and get into a war of words with the complainant. In many well-run companies like Global Tree, complaints are dealt with in a professional manner. It is best to leave a short polite reply requesting the person for an order or reference number
• 3.       Do not gloat – once it is confirmed that the complaint is fake, it may be tempting for you to furnish the facts with all the proof to get one up on the complainant, but doing so will damage your reputation far more than his
• 4.       Flag the complaint -While it is not in your best interest to openly comment on or call out the fake complaint, one thing you can definitely do is to flag the complaint if it’s on a third-party review site
• 5.       Treat your genuine customers with respect – We see many manufacturers and service providers who are quick to respond when a criticism or complaint is lodged. However, the same companies do not bother to reply when a genuine and happy customer praises them. It is important to respond with gratitude for positive reviews as that will reflect the true worth of the company in the eyes of present and prospective customers.

How to Differentiate Between Genuine and Fake Reviews

In this age of the internet, we can find a lot of information about almost any product or service on the web. This helps us tremendously to decide before hand whether or not we would like to purchase the product. Apart from the details, pricing, and features of the product, we can also come to know about the opinion of the other buyers – whether the product is worth the cost? Is it durable?  Is the quality good? In case of services too, we can learn about the experience of other buyers – was the service too costly or value for money? How is customer interaction? What is the quality of service and turnaround time? These and many other details can be seen through the reviews left by other customers on the web. However one thing to consider is that, with customers relying on reviews, a few unscrupulous manufacturers and service providers are resorting to paying money to have fake positive reviews written about the product or service. So how do you distinguish between reviews that are fake and those that are genuine? Read on

Tips To Identify Fake Reviews

The Quality of Writing Will Be Top Notch

This won’t always be true, sometimes GLOBAL TREE REVIEWS are written by university students who are happy with the service and have an excellent grasp on language, but in many cases it will be. A layperson who uses a product and loves it is more likely to write the review in a causal manner and not like an SAT essay writing assignment. On the other hand, a paid writer who after all is being paid for his writing skills is more likely to write at his best

The Post Will Lengthier Than Average

Face it – you used this beautiful night cream and you loved it, and want to share its benefits with the whole world – kind hearted soul that you are! – well you are most likely to quickly jot down a point or two and not write a whole page of paeans to it, for example most Global Tree reviews are shorter than a few lines. On the other hand a writer hired to write fake reviews is often paid on the basis of x cents per word, which gives them an incentive to make the reviews longer

The Post Will Be Gushing and Effusive

If you come across a review that sounds like an advertisement, then it’s probably a fake review. The review will gush over all the wonderful features in great detail and also list all the advantages of using the product.  If that’s the case with the review you are reading then you can almost certainly be sure it’s fake.

Best Tips for Collecting and Utilizing Consumer Feedback

Customer feedback is extremely useful for companies and brands. It helps to improve the understanding of customers, thereby enabling you to improve your product or service. Though a number of companies like Global Tree, feedback is an essential part of the decision making process, many companies do not understand the importance of feedback and do not actively seek it. Moreover many who do actually do not know how to collect feedback from consumers. We provide the best tips for collecting and utilizing feedback from consumers.

Tips for Collecting Consumer Feedback

The most important and first step to creating consumer satisfaction is collecting feedback from consumers to understand what exactly the average customer for your company wants. We provide important tips for designing the best feedback form for your customers

1. Keep the Form Uncluttered

The consumer feedback form should have a lot of white space, to make it look more appealing and uncluttered. A cluttered form can turn away your consumers as they may think it will be time-consuming. At Global Tree, feedback forms are easy to read and follow as well as free of clutter.

2. Keep Clear and Easy To Understand Label

Make sure that your consumer can understand clearly how to fill the form.  It is best to name each label clearly, and keep the label beside the field corresponding to it, to ensure that the time taken to fill the form can come down. Keeping the label away from the field can make the consumer spend a lot of time to fill the form.

3. Keep All Fields Optional

One way to entice your consumers to fill your feedback form, is to keep your fields optional. You should make it easy for your customers to provide the feedback. If they do not want to provide any information it is best to let them have their way, so that they at least fill the other part of the feedback form.

4. Keep a Logical Order in the Form

It is important to mark the fields in the form in a logical manner. This will help consumers who use a laptop or mobile device for filling out the form by tabbing from the one field to another. This is a small but significant detail that can make a lot of difference to your consumer feedback form.

5. Keep Your Feedback Compatible with Smart Phones

You should make sure that the form can be viewed and filled just as easily if the consumer is working from his mobile form. You should use the right software and web designing that allows your form to be resized correctly for consumers who are filling it.

Why Client Reviews Can Be The Bane Or Boon For A Consultancy?

Why Client Reviews Can Be The Bane Or Boon For A Consultancy?

For any company, fulfilling the needs of a client is one of the topmost priorities. After all a happy client can bring in many more new customers through word of mouth advertising. The opposite of course is also equally true. A disgruntled client can scare away more customers than all your marketing efforts can manage to bring in to the firm.

In the era before the internet, a dissatisfied client could share his disappointing experience of a product or service within his circle of family and friends, but now in the age of social media, unhappy clients are finding a wider audience to express their frustrations. On the other side of the coin are the happy clients who receive what they are expecting and maybe more from the service and get on the internet to recommend the product to their social media followers.

For IMMIGRATION CONSULTANTS like Global Tree, client reviews can be a strong influencer on not just potential new clients but the consultants themselves.  It is easy if you are a consultant to be disappointed and disheartened at negative reviews and elated at positive reviews, but most often, the consultant does not do anything beyond that. However, the most prudent and effective way of dealing with a client review is to treat it with the seriousness it deserves. Here are the points to take care of when you receive a client review.

1. Determine whether the review is positive, negative or a mix of both

2. Pare down the review to its details. Has the client provided any specific instances where he loved the service? Is there any specific aspect that he is unhappy with?

3. Reach out to the client and assure him of your continued commitment to best service. At GLOBAL TREE CLIENT REVIEWS are responded to within 24 hours

4. In case of positive reviews, thank the client and ask him for additional feedback on how to improve your service.

5. In case of negative reviews, reiterate to the client, the details that he has complained about and check if your understanding of the problem is correct. Provide a clear timeline to resolve the issue

6. In case the issue cannot be solved at your stage, politely inform the client and provide details for next escalation point. All consultants should be trained to do this without hesitation or fear of being labelled incompetent. One of the best ways to do damage control with a negative review is to provide prompt, precise and accountable response to the client.

Should you trust other student reviews when you plan to study abroad?

Nowadays more and more students are planning to go abroad to complete their higher education. The internet has put the means to know more about how to study abroad, how to apply to colleges and how to choose the best university at everyone’s finger tips

If you are a student who aspired to STUDY ABROAD twenty years back, your only chance to know more about your prospects was to ask your relative in USA to find out the details and tell you about it. But now, all you have to do is sit at a computer and you will have information not just about the university application process, but a range of comments and reviews from students and their parents from all over the world telling you about their experiences through the application process

In fact, student reviews are one of the major channels of advertisement, both for and against universities. Not just universities, even Overseas Education Consultancies get a lot of reviews from students who utilize their services. For Global Tree, student reviews are one of the major ways in which consultants learn about direct feedback from the clients.

Should you trust student reviews? The short answer is yes, most of the time, the reviewer is giving an honest opinion about the service he has received. But the long answer can be more complicated than that. There are times when the education consultant has tried his best to make sure that a student qualifies, but the student has not met the required criteria for either a standardized test or has not been granted a student visa. In that case, the student may in his disappointment choose to blame the consultant and post a negative review for no fault of his. At consultancies like GLOBAL TREE, STUDENT REVIEWS are taken very seriously, but a year of experience has trained consultants to differentiate between genuine reviews and fake ones.

If you are a student reading a review, ask yourself, has the reviewer a positive or negative impression of the consultancy? Has he provided any specific details of why he feels that way? If not, then its best to not place your decision on that review.
