SHARES 4 TIPS 
TO IMPROVE 
YOUR 
CUSTOMER 
SERVICE SKILLS
Excellent customer service isn’t just 
down to your frontline staff, but a 
customer might be won or lost there. 
That’s why it’s so important every 
employee works together to resolve 
issues and create memorable 
moments – and empower your 
frontline agents to be as valuable to 
the customer as possible. 
PRACTICE ACTIVE 
LISTENING
Behind every customer, a service call is a 
real human who has a question or 
concern that needs to be answered. The 
person needs to feel understood, heard 
and served. Active listening is a key 
skillset you can develop by practicing 
daily with your co-workers and family. 
First, you should approach each 
conversation to learn something and 
focus on the speaker.
LEARN TO EMPATHISE WITH 
YOUR CUSTOMERS
Empathy is the ability to understand how 
the customer is feeling and where they’re 
coming from. While some people seem 
like they’re born with this trait, it’s a skill 
that can be acquired. When listening to 
the customer, try to see the problem 
through his eyes and imagine how it 
makes him feel. This is an important 
customer service skill because the 
customer will be more receptive if they 
feel understood by you.
Use positive 
lWahenn gatutenadignge to customers’ 
problems, using positive language 
takes the stress away from the 
situation. Words are powerful and 
they can create trusting relationships 
with your customers. Verbs should be 
used positively. For example, instead 
of saying “don’t hit the red button” 
say “the green button is the best 
option.” The future tense is also 
positive as it doesn’t dwell on the 
customer’s past issues. 
IMPROVE YOUR 
TECHNICAL SKILLS
Customers may come to you with all 
types of problems and they want their 
questions answers fast. If you don’t 
know how to properly implement a 
service ticket, you’ll be wasting their 
valuable time. Before interacting with 
customers, you should fully 
understand how to use your live chat 
and ticketing system and learn to type 
fast.
