Providing quality customer service is an effective way to improve the relationship a company has with customers. No matter how great a product is, the customer is most likely to remember the direct interaction they have with the customer service department. SurveyMonkey identified some customer service tips to strengthen how a company interacts with their customers. Alba International has reviewed the tips below.

Empathy, patience and consistency: Customers come in all different ways. Some are irate, some are full of questions, and others will be chatty. A company must know how to deal with all types of customers and to provide them with the same level of service each time.

1. Adaptability: Every customer is different and the same customer may change week to week. A company should be able to handle surprises, sense a customer's mood and adapt accordingly.

2. Clear communication: Use authentically positive language, stay cheerful no matter what and never end a conversation without confirming the customer is satisfied. The company must convey to the customers exactly what is meant, so there is no confusion.

3. Work ethic: Customers will appreciate it if their problem is seen right through to its resolution. However, a company must not spend all its time with problems, as other customers need to be seen to.

4. Knowledge: Stay informed enough to respond to customer inquiries, but don't be afraid to say 'I don't know' either. If this is the case, ensure you find someone who can answer their question. Customers will appreciate honesty.

5. Thick skin: The customer is always right. Have the ability to swallow one's pride and accept blame or negative feedback. Keep the customer's happiness in mind.
