What is customer service?

Customer service refers to all aspects of the assistance provided to clients before, during, and after the sale to ensure the greatest experience in their contact with the company.

However, this concept of customer service goes much beyond providing solutions to questions that could come up while making a purchase.

The success of your business depends on the notion of customer service, since it plays a significant role in the perception that the company projects to the public, particularly to potential clients. It is crucial that this service not only has quality but also, and above all, is aligned with the values that your company wants to convey to consumers. Regardless of whether the goal is to foster loyalty, attract new clients, maintain contact with your target audience or optimize customer relationship management.

The value of providing good customer service Whether it’s for building loyalty or generating new customers, keeping in touch with your target audience, or optimizing customer relationship management and demonstrating that you care, it’s important that this service not only has quality, but also, and above all, is aligned with the values your company wants to convey to consumers.

The Covid-19 pandemic profoundly changed the consumer’s relationship with their brands of choice and placed, unlike any other time in our history, the precious value on customer service.

As a result of the expansion of internet shopping and the replacement of in-person sales and follow-up services, remote customer service has taken over as the primary method of communication between customers and businesses.

Customer service has become the main channel between brands and customers’ concerns during the purchasing process. When excellent, this service attracts new business, promotes client retention and loyalty and raises sales within the existing customer base, regardless of whether the business is a major corporation or a start-up.
