3 Be proactive and flexible

A valuable asset is someone who is proactive and flexible. This means that you don't wait for instructions or problems to arise, but instead, you anticipate them and take action. You also adapt to changing situations and customer needs, and find creative ways to overcome obstacles and deliver results. For example, you can monitor customer feedback, analyze data, and identify patterns and issues that need attention. You can also propose new ideas, strategies, or tools that will enhance customer satisfaction and loyalty. You can also be flexible by working well with different teams, departments, or clients, and adjusting your style and approach accordingly.

    As a customer service person you can choose to play a massive role in helping things improve, especially when a company has a culture of proactive, continued improvement internally. As a member of the team who will deal with customers heavily, you have a unique chance to see how customers feel from talking to them directly; to hear exactly what they like and don't like. Report that information internally and create systems to keep track of that data. A company that wants to improve sustainably will encourage feedback loops, led by its customer service team, that allow real time information on how customers feel about the overall service delivery.Better service as a result of this means more money in - and that's valuable.
