TRAINER FEEDBACK ON OUTCOME
TASK 1:
Customer service is imperative for the success of any service related business. For this task, you are to evaluate the customer service of your company. In doing so, you must develop a checklist to ensure a consistent evaluation across departments and sections. You may want to consider:
• First impressions
• Positive customer service factors
• Negative customer service factors
• Products offered vs. customer needs
• Environment
• Professionalism of staff and presentation
• Response times
• Service guarantees
• Pricing guarantees
• Product quality
• Document presentation standards
Your research may include:
• Talking to customers
• Qualitative or quantitative research
• Seeking feedback from service delivery colleagues
• Analysis of competitive environment
• Analysis of industry and market trends
You are to then develop a written report that outlines your findings, and makes suggestions for improvement. These suggestions should discuss the rationale behind your opinions, along with details on how each suggestion could be implemented.
It is important to note that your assessor will be looking to ensure you were thorough in your review. Don’t even think of saying the service is perfect – everything can be improved! You must also submit your completed checklist with your report
