  2. Emergence of digital era • Digital era is here to stay • This has revolutionalised individual and group communication • Sharing information happens at the speed of light • Customer has more information than earlier • Customer has become more and more diligent • evaluates options before committing purchase • Customer has become impatient; wants results than excuses; Not willing to wait

  3. Role of social media • Social media is now often used for arriving at opinion about products and services • Consumers refer user generated reviews online through sites such as Amazon.com • Expert opinions based on objective data can also be accessed • Such sources generate online warning about the quality of a product or service • Unhappy consumers broadcast their displeasure through social media which has a big reach

  4. Use of social media by customers • Watch this vide about poor service in PO which is circulation in youtube • This is what happens when the service is poor

  5. Some statistics • An online opinion poll shows that • 26% of the customers say they have used the social media to find details of a company and its products • 75% of BRB customers say they rely on the word of mouth, including social media for making purchase decisions

  6. Some tips • Reduce the need for social media feedback • Make sure your customer knows how to reach you • Customers prefer to use direct contact and use social media only to vent frustration

  7. Improve customer service • Aim to build a general good perception about the organisation • This reduces the instances for accessing the social media • Repeated failures in customer service results in a high percentage of customers venting their anger in social media • So, social media can make or break a business

  8. Meet timelines • Be sensitive to customer’s timelines • Be on schedule in serving customers • Improve customer convenience through add-ons (tracking, MIS for corporate customers etc.,) • Never make the customer miss routines to access the services

  9. Train employees • Publish vision and ensure every employee works around the vision • Reinforce and repeat the objectives through frequent training and workshops • Encourage employees to work ahead of the competition and strive to exceed industry standards (Ex: Maximise D+1 in speed post delivery) • Discourage employees to build parity with the worst performing competitors • Keep employees informed; Use online communication to reach out
