Two Effective Customer Communication Techniques

Communications technology is evolving a rapid pace, and some businesses can have trouble trying to keep up with new advancements.  When you're working in the construction business proper customer communication is key, and at CustomSmart Homes we do our best to keep our clients informed and encourage them to come to us with any questions they may have.  People always have questions during the building process, and whether our clients want to know more about our building process or want to know more about the green technology that'll be used in their new home, we're ready to answer them.  Custom Smart Home reviews reflect the effective communication techniques we use with our customers, and other businesses could benefit from using some of our techniques.  If you think that your customers could benefit from new communication techniques, try using some of these methods.

E-mail Updates

Confirmation e-mails have been around for a while now, people can expect to see the inbox flooded with messages that let them know that their orders have been shipped and that their bills have been paid.  E-mails to customers need to have more information aside from letting them know basic information.    Tracking numbers for retail products are a must; and customers should know about any delays or other things out of the ordinary they should expect.  Businesses should also get into the habit of e-mailing their customers weekly updates when they're working on long term projects with their clients.  A few sentences about a project's progress won't just give your client's an informative update, it'll also help reassure them that their work is being done well and on time.

Post Project/Product Reports

Following up with customers after they've done business with you is an effective way to ensure that your customers are satisfied with your services.  You could add a page devoted to customer feedback on your company's website, but if you want to learn about your customer's experiences you need to make more of an effort to get them.  Have someone on your customer service staff spend time calling past customers to ask them a few questions about their experience with your company.  Customers will like that you're showing an interest in their opinions, and receiving a call from an actual person instead of a brief e-mail asking them about their opinion shows helps drive home that sentiment.
