If you’ve ever worked in telemarketing or cold calling, you might have had your supervisor come by and remind you put on a smile when you’re on the phone with customers.
Obnoxious? Yes. Weird? Kind of. But not without it’s merits. “Smile while you dial” is the ultimate customer service best practice.
Why? Because customers can hear you smile. As humans, we pick up on vibes and adjust our own behavior to other people’s emotional cues. This you may already know.
But what if I told you that your tone of voice when you’re talking to your customers directly influences your company’s bottom line? Believe it or not, it does.
This module is about 13 days training for Customer Service Representatives, and Communication Arts students. This is patterned to TESDA's 100 to 120 training hours.

“If you can master only one skill in selling, become a master prospector. It will guarantee your future success.”
Quote from Tim Conner’s book: “Soft Sell: The New Art of Selling, Self Empowerment and Persuasion”
Selling Smart Workshop - Communicating Value with Questions - September 4, 2013AnnArborSPARK
This session will demonstrate how using Socratic questioning technique, attendees can qualify prospective customers while leading them to discover the value of your product or service. Attendees will learn how to apply reversing strategies and softening statements to get more information, overcome stalls and objections or problems that they encounter with prospects. By using these strategies, they can gain deeper trust and subtly persuade prospects to open up and discuss the real problems they are trying to solve.
The panelists will answer questions and offer real examples of how educating prospects by asking good questions makes for shorter sales cycles and deeper client relationships.
You dont have to wait for things to happen... You have the power to make things happen! The Art of Selling describes the basics of how you can persuade people more effectively, more ethically, and more often. Youll also discover that there is virtually nothing on earth that brings as much personal satisfaction as being able to save another person time, money, or frustration because of the goods, products, and services you have to offer.
Rae Stonehouse aka Mr. Emcee shares the presentation slides that he used at a recent meeting of the Okanagan Business Referral Group (Thursdays). His presentation is entitled "Referral Marketing Works."
Customer service is a necessary part of any job. There are some important parts to dealing with customers, and for handling the situation when someone is angry.
Doing customer development (and stop wasting your time)Hans van Gent
Why would you bother to talking to people while you actually could be building your product? Because everything you assume could be wrong. Time to validate those assumptions and start your business on the right track.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).
