“Rude customers have no idea how difficult
they are to sell to with a smile on my face. She’s dissatisfied
with everything I’m saying. Can’t seem to do anything that
satisfies her. Fourth one today.” The sales woman
thought to herself. The mixture of her frustration and desperation was
palpable to the customer facing her.
“These sales people are so impersonal
and rude. She’s completely disinterested in what I need. I don’t
why I bother coming back to this store” she thought
to herself, her frustration and desperation communicating itself as
she walked away impatiently from the sales woman.
When we come face to face with an internal or external customer, directly
or telephonically, who wants to buy a product and the customer comes
face to face with the person wanting to sell the product, in that very
moment the relationship becomes the most important asset. Not the product.
The product is bought only because the customer believes that the product
will satisfy a need, a want, a fear and / or a desire. To all intents
and purposes, customers do not buy products. Customers buy relationships.
.
And the challenge becomes knowing not only what you are selling but
how to create emotional customer satisfaction. If you can do this, any
sales person and company will have the upper hand in their field. Authentic
customer satisfaction boils don to a level of sincerity sought by the
innate essence of the customer so that they know that their emotional
finances are being invested in safe hands.
