  • Good customer service skills lead to a reduction in the repeat-call rate and customer retention by easing customer concerns, answering questions truthfully and accurately, and being able to accurately diagnose, troubleshoot and resolve multiple customer problems through any means allowed to the representative, both with the proprietary tools utilized on the system, personal knowledge or scheduling field technician visits as needed.
  • When an irate customer would call in, patience, and customer service skills aided in empathizing with the customer and de-escalating the problem into something manageable.
