6 Steps to Handle Irate Customers
- Listen carefully and with interest—but also try to listen to what they are “NOT” saying
- Put yourself in your customer’s place—how would YOU feel in a similar situation
- Ask questions and actively listen to the answers. Use closed-ended questions to elicit a yes/no, or other one-word answers because you get raw information, rather than feelings or emotions.
- Suggest alternatives that address their concerns, and always do so with sincere empathy.
- Apologize without laying blame for it might not be your fault.
- Solve the problem quickly and efficiently—and your customers to vent, which will allow you to better understand their emotion and their position.
