My Thoughts - Customer Care
Visit my Customer Care Library -> Personal Beliefs:
"All business' (big and small) must focus on creating an environment where as an organization they present a uniform look and feel to their customers. Support, Sales, Marketing, PR and Billing departments must adopt a revisable support structure that can better meet both end-user and customer service requirements by exploiting technology rather than headcount."
I have a wide variety of experience in Customer Care Strategies related to problem solving and dealing with difficult situations.
Many of my opinions have been formed based on my additional study in psychology, management of people in the hospitality industry, property management. I wrote this section initially while developing call centers and helpdesks and based it on my hands on work experience although it has evolved over the years as I continue to gain experience in other fields..
My Knowledge
These are some of my key interests and a randomized selection from my library
all types of topicology I find interesting:
- Wine Tasting & Education: Learn about wines to have a great tasting experience every time
- Travel and Guides
- Property Management: Leasing, Managment and Caretaking
- Massage Therapy: As a Therapist and Clinic Owner I ammassed a tremendous amount of knowledge.
- My Resume and Experience: Open to a great work experience every time
Customer Care & Client Advocacy - Its My Thing:
My experience is centered around the many different aspects of customer care including working in, managing and designing high volume telephone customer service/call centers, managing accounts, successfully running my own business, residential property management, and nearly 10 years in various capacities at a 5 star business hotel. I enjoy inbound environments: taking calls, repetitive tasks, evaluating solutions, and the immediate gratification of resolving issues. I am a very creative problem solver, confident in taking on new tasks, and comfortable working both "on the front line" or "in the back office".
