Vinnie is thrilled to be back – and just in time to share a bite size bit for Customer Service Week.

As you may recall, we have featured a version of this quote before:

       “Customer Service is not a department.  It’s an attitude.”

It seemed more was needed.  Vinnie and I discussed it and decided to add the parts about atmosphere, culture and a way of doing business.

It was his idea to add the part about blood.  That’s just Vinnie being Vinnie.  He is SUCH a vampire.

Anyway – this attitude, atmosphere, culture, way of doing business can be positive or negative.  It can be good blood or bad.  And whichever it is, it drains or boosts morale, productivity and overall performance.

Thought/Discussion Questions:

1. Are you happy with the customer service provided by your team?
2. What would you like to be different?
3. What do you, as a leader, do now to positively influence your team’s attitude toward customer service?
4. What do you do to negatively influence it?
5. What can you do to get to #2?
6. What can others do?

Here is another resource for Customer Service Week:  10 Ways to Treat & Tweak During Customer Service Week.
