Customer Service Consultant

Services offered

I have been working in Customer/Client Service collectively for almost seven years, and I am now planning to strengthen my skills and enrich my experiences. Although successful in my Sales, Tourism and Help-desk career, I have realised the aspects of my work I find most rewarding are all Customer Service functions:


-Dynamic communication style: I am adept in building relationships, consensus and a shared sense of purpose. I am known for my ability to quickly establish trust with customers, mediate disputes and motivate others into action.


-Empathy: I know that no two persons are alike. It is therefore crucial that I evaluate the personality-type and temperament of the customers I am interacting with to establish rapport with them, develop their trust in my capabilities and to come to a unique resolution to their problems based on critical thinking, past experiences and individual customer expectations.


-Ability to Use Positive Language: All customers have expectations that need to be managed. Even in undesired circumstances such as a product not being available, I use this as an opportunity to remind the prospect that care is taken to ensure that their needs are met. This I achieve by telling customers what can be done should their initial needs not be met, by suggesting alternative solutions and by being helpful and encouraging.
