The Science of Handling Complaints

Customers complain because they are stressed, annoyed, and frustrated. Sometimes they will be emotional and volatile, other times they will appear despondent and cynical. The point is that to rectify the complaint, you have to be able to understand how and why they hold that particular opinion:

- Learn to put yourself in the shoes of all types of customers

- Raise your awareness of external factors and why they matter

- Think about how to create an environment of trust to solve problems

- Be the approachable human face of your business and make a difference
