You're faced with a customer's personal anger. How do you navigate the situation effectively?

Active listening is crucial when dealing with angry customers as it demonstrates empathy and understanding. By listening carefully without interrupting, you identify the root of the problem and calm the situation. This approach improves service and resolves conflicts more effectively.

Actively listening is crucial. Give them space to express their concerns & emotions, show empathy and validate their feelings. Once they've shared their perspective, ask for their preferred resolution. Understanding Expectations: Clarifies what the customer wants and ensures alignment. Empowerment: Gives the customer a sense of control and involvement in the outcome. Tailored Solutions: Create a solution that is more likely to provide customer satisfaction. Gathering this information, us it along with your findings & company policies, to propose a resolution that aims to be fair and satisfactory for both parties. This approach not only resolves the immediate issue but also helps build trust and improve the overall customer relationship.

Actively listening to an angry or upset customer helps to calm situations in itself as it demonstrates empathy. It allows you time to understand the problem and assess the best action. I always look for an area in their frustration I can relate to, thus building a bond of understanding and offering a solution. I find showing empathy can also work in calming the customer down like a therapeutic venting session.

Beim Aktiven Zuhören steht die Verhinderung jeder weiteren Eskalation im Vordergrund. Der Kunde sollte in jedem Fall ausreden können, ohne Unterbrochen zu werden. Auch wenn der Kunde in seinem Ärger eine falsche Annahme getroffen hat, sind seine Gefühle echt und sollten anerkannt werden, bspw. "Ich verstehe, dass das frustrierend ist, mir würde es da ähnlich gehen". Wer aktiv zuhört, gewinnt das Vertrauen des Kunden schneller, versteht das Problem besser und kann umso zügiger zu einer Lösung überleiten.

This approach makes the angry customers calm down as he is heard and he is in a mood to understand the root cause and accept the solution.

Der verärgerte Kunde sucht ein Ventil für seinen Frust, das ist nichts persönliches. Ruhe zu bewahren hilft dabei, die eigenen Gedanken besser ordnen und das Gespräch in die richtige Richtung lenken zu können. Ein ruhiges (nicht desinteressiertes oder abweisendes) Auftreten wirkt professionell und kompetent und signalisiert auch dem Kunden, dass eine weitere Eskalation nicht zielführend ist. Wer ruhig bleibt, behält die Situation unter Kontrolle und leitet das Gespräch.

Empathy goes a long way in customer service. Express genuine concern for the customer's predicament and apologize for any inconvenience they've experienced.

Erfahrene Kundenservice-Mitarbeiter spüren schnell, ob die Aufregung des Kunden berechtigt ist, oder nicht. Unabhängig davon muss sich der Kunde verstanden fühlen.

Die emotionale Lage des Kunden muss meist zuerst beruhigt werden, bevor man das Problem beheben kann.

Start with thanking them. People get angry but if you listen they may start to feel embarrassed, which can cause further escalation or a retreat. To solve the problem, you need them to calm down but also to keep moving forward in the conversation. I am so sorry this happened, I want to help make it right, let’s see what we can do. And involve them in the answers and solution. Can you tell me more or I want to hear all that you want to tell me. Is there anything else you would like me to know?

Um das Vertrauen des Kunden (zurück)zu gewinnen, muss jetzt das Zugesagte umgesetzt werden. Wer sich zuvor nicht zu weit mit Lösungszusagen aus dem Fenster gelehnt hat, hat es jetzt leicht.

Just because they are not in front of you, or yelling at you, does not mean the job is done. Follow through on your promises (or inability to keep it) communication is key to helping people feel heard. If you have items to do after you are done talking to someone, follow up with what you have done and the expectations moving forward. Then keep following this until you see the job through. Also learn from what happened and help to change processes if it was a process problem. The realm of customer service is easier if you remove barriers so the next person doesn’t have to face it.

Antes de que el cliente se queje si tenemos una situación es mejor hacérselo saber, esto para evitar inconformidad, si ya el cliente está enterado de la situación no es que no se va a molestar pero entenderá de una manera mejor la situación.

It may sound odd, but by staying calm and helping the customer through their problem(s) you will find you've built a strong rapport with them. If you show them you are listening and you model kindness many of them will begin to ease off as they realize your offers of assistance are being backed up by your knowledge and empathy.

Always let them know that you appreciate their being comfortable enough to bring this forward. Let them know that you will (and do) use it as a learning opportunity so that others do not get to this place. Thank them and make sure you let them know that you are there to assist should they need more.

This is the key to making lifelong business partners and customers. Many of my best clients/customers starting off as angry customers. It is also crucial to remember that the customer is very rarely ever actually mad at YOU. Maybe something happened in their day to make them angry already or maybe they came across someone who was angry. You are in control of separating yourself from their anger, turn their anger into an understanding of their concern. Focus on that concern and build a connection over it. Then, work to solve it and show them value in your relationship. "Hey, I know you had a problem with this. Come see me first next time and I will be happy to help." Thanking them for their patience is always better than apologizing for it!
