21449 Doing Business Successfully in China: Effective Communication and Negotiation
Posted by: | CommentsThe Importance of Communication in Customer Services
Posted by: | CommentsVery poor customer services can have a major negative affect on profits, sales and the reputation of a company. In the most damaging of situations it can even bring a company down to where they can no longer exist in business. Yes customer service is an essential part of every organisation and the role of communication is of massive importance.
I am involved with customer service on a daily basis as I offer a DVD duplication service and a stuttering therapy course. I also work with a company that offers people the opportunity of obtaining cheap calls.
So what would be classed as excellent customer service? What would be classed as very good customer service communication skills? Well these are the questions that the top management of each and every company need to know the answers to. I will be giving my opinions in the rest of this article; I hope you enjoy the read.
A typical example and a very common mistake:
Just think for a moment and ask yourself the following question, if you don’t mind! How many times have you been promised a call back from a customer services representative; when in the end they fail to call you back? I am fairly sure that the majority of people will have experienced this annoyance. You then have the task of having to contact the organisation to chase up the query, this is of course more than frustrating. There is always an excuse of course – I was going to phone you back however I was just waiting for a colleague to get back to me. Sorry but that just is not good enough, the customer services worker could and should have phoned me on that day, the day they had said that they would, to inform me that they were still awaiting for information from their colleague. If they have achieved this then fair play and I would have to say that they have top notch communication skills.
I, being the type of person that I am, will then relay how badly I have been treated at the hands of this company to my family and friends. They then in turn are likely to continue to spread the word as to how poor this business is in the ever essential role of communication. As you can see sales could quite easily be lost due to this most simplest of mistakes.
Real Estate Investing In The Age Of Government Intervention
Posted by: | CommentsIt is likely that you think of a number of things when you hear the words real estate investing. You might immediately leap to real estate investing being real estate portfolios and real estate retirement plans or you may think instead of short sales, bulk reo investing and virtual real estate investing. You probably also wonder how these things play out in real estate investors’ life in the current economy.
You will need to know a lot about real estate investing. Knowing the basics of real estate investing education is a good way to get the most out of every lesson. You will get the most out of anything to do with short sales, bulk reo sales, virtual real estate and just improving real estate investor abilities by knowing some real estate investing basics. Here are three real estate investing basics that even some experts do not really know:
1. Real estate investing education always yields positive. Each real estate deal can represent thousands of dollars in potential wealth. Knowing how to get that wealth is the key to success. Learning about real estate increases your odds of success when you do a real estate deal. A small investment in your education can yield big results when you implement your learning.
2. Any economy allows for success in real estate investing. Many people think that you can only succeed in real estate when the economy is booming. In fact a bad economy is not a bad economy for real estate investors. You can often find properties to buy at deep discounts. You might also find deals that simply would not exist in a booming economy. In fact, real estate investing can turn the tide for a poor economy. When the economy is not so good, short sales, bulk reo sales and virtual real estate are great. You will have the option of saving yourself and possibly others from serious financial difficulties if you know about these types of deals.
3. You do not need a lot of money to be a successful real estate investor. You can make a success of real estate investing no matter how much or little money you have. There are many deals that will let you use other people’s money to do them. Private lenders will lend you their money if they think you are a good investment. The best way to be a good investment is to know as much as possible about real estate investing. This will help you represent yourself as a good investment to private lenders who do not know how to make money in real estate investing.
Real estate investing is a good way to generate a great deal of wealth. You can create a good income no matter what the state of the economy. You can create success for yourself using knowledge of real estate investing, short sales, bulk reo sales and virtual real estate. Knowing some real estate investing basics and applying them will help you succeed as a real estate investor.
5 Types Of Bosses and 5 Ways To Deal With Them
Posted by: | CommentsEvery employee may have one grievance – an impossible or eccentric boss! They have, somehow, become common factors in grumbling employees’ lives. But dealing with them is a professional necessity and it is essential to understand that although they have a common thread joining them together, there are different specialty traits to their eccentric natures.
There are as many types of human characters as there are people and bosses are no exception. Below are some techniques and strategies to deal with them so that your employment is not in danger:
Dealing with Eccentric Bosses
While dealing with bosses it is better that you know that some of the eccentric traits may have brought him to where he is now.
1. The Shouting Boss: The psychology of shouting bosses is that they can get the things done only by shouting. They don’t mind shouting at anyone, anywhere. Although shouting is a sign of impatience, it is also because they want to be recognized on the spot. Satisfying their ego by listening to them calms them down. Further, executing their instructions will get them your respect.
2. The Scheming Boss: He is the most dangerous of them all, always plotting to fire one person or the other. They are highly manipulative while being extremely intelligent, highly motivated and focused. His way to the top is through firing workers which he says is benefiting the company; in reality he is worried about protecting himself and his position. Being honest and acting with extreme care is the best policy when dealing with this type of boss.
3. The Just-A-Minute Boss: He is an impatient man but not rude. He wants everything to be done on the fly. He has many things in his head while talking to you and so may be unable to grasp anything you said. The next day he may surprise you with a ‘you-didn’t-tell-me-this’. These types hardly complete any tasks, so be prepared for big workloads at anytime. Keeping evidence of your communications (possibly through emails), or completing the communication/task on the spot is better.
4. The Bumbling Boss: This junk head is trying to hide his inadequacies behind big talk and other diversions. Although he is rather harmless, he is neither a good leader nor an inspiring one. Just because he has reached a higher position above you, he might also get a sense of false prestige. Occasionally showing his mistakes in disguise of guarding him and guiding him is your best bet.
5. The Fear Monger: The attrition rate of this boss is high because of the fear and psychosis he creates. No one wants to continue working with him; often he fires them himself before they can quit, because he thinks fear is the only way to motivate employees to work. Changing your job, and fast, is the way to deal with him.
These are just a few of the dominant personality traits that you may find during your career. You need to be aware of them in order to preserve both your job and your sanity!
