Make Trades Great Again When is enough, enough? Should we troubleshoot over the phone or schedule a service call?
Are you walking the tightrope of remote troubleshooting? From dealing with difficult customer calls when systems fail to the tricky decision of when to inspect in-person or troubleshoot over the phone, we bring you a candid conversation about the realities of our industry. Let's take, for instance, the case of a customer with icy radiators - we'll walk you through this firsthand experience and show you how we approach such a scenario.
The balancing act doesn't end there. In our deep-dive into these complex issues, we also bring to light the delicate dance of offering free advice over a call or suggesting a paid service call. This conversation is not just about the financial aspects but also about educating the customer about their systems to prevent unwarranted damage. We take a hard look at the implications of giving away advice for free, the management of customer relationships, and what it means to charge for service calls without undermining these relationships.
As we round up this engaging episode, we highlight the significance of customer feedback in honing our services. We'd love to hear from you, our listeners, and invite you to join this insightful conversation. Whether it's your thoughts on the trade industry, your experiences in remote troubleshooting, or your opinion on this episode – we're all ears. Tune into this episode and gain valuable insights from our experiences in the trade industry, as we juggle the act of offering remote advice and scheduling service calls. Let's make trades great again, together!
