What are three common caller types, and how can I recognize them?
The Overconfident caller:
This caller can be impatient and often chooses not to read instructions.
The Timid caller:
This caller lacks confidence, is hasty in calling for help, and readily blames the product or expresses fear of it. This caller is also afraid of damaging the product and may simply want to return it.
The Talkative caller:
This caller is outgoing and friendly and will eagerly engage in conversation. However, this caller type will have a hard time focusing on the purpose of the call. Resolving an issue can be time consuming and frustrating.
What are some effective techniques for dealing with these caller types?
The Overconfident caller:
Be polite, patient, and focused. Never challenge the caller's skill level or intelligence. Use inclusive pronouns like "we" or "us."
The Timid caller:
Start by outlining the successful end result of the call to build the customer's confidence. Express assurance in your ability to help the caller. Use descriptive terms and avoid long pauses.
The Talkative caller: Keep the conversation on track by asking close-ended questions. Provide the caller with short answers, moving to the next point as soon as possible. Be firm but not rude or dismissive.
