Not everything goes to plan.
Despite our best intentions, there will always be those moments during the day when things go a little differently to how we had planned.
You know what I mean.
I’m talking about those moments when we DO realise that things could have been done a little better than they were done.
Sometimes, and we all do think this way, wouldn’t it be nice if we could rewind our day and erase those moments, and insert new moments when things go a little better.
But we can’t.
That’s the beauty of life. Or a fact of life.
Once time has gone, it’s gone.
We cannot go back.
So we need to make sure we are doing our best at all times.
There will always be times when we could have done better.
When things do go wrong at your dental practice do you have protocols and systems that immediately swing into place to rectify and correct whatever went wrong?
How are your service recovery processes?
SERVICE RECOVERY is defined as those processes that our business initiates when a service defect is recognised to have occurred.
Our dental office’s service recovery systems and the way we seamlessly swing them into action are what defines us as a business that cares unconditionally about our customers.
In your dental practice, you need to be able to execute your service recovery processes immediately, without hesitation.
While these customers may complain about the service defect that has just happened, they will be in awe at the way our business handles that defect through its service recovery processes….
We need to be able to right the wrongs as soon as possible.
Empowering team members so that they can execute our service recovery processes seamlessly will go a long way towards establishing our dental practice as being truly a provider of World Class Customer Service.
Truly exceptional.
Your dental practice needs to mandate a policy and a culture of fixing any defects immediately, and of going Above and Beyond in rectifying those defects straight away.
Going to the dentist is not a fun experience.
Your patients would all rather be somewhere else.
It is our duty to make sure that their experiences at our practice are always truly World Class.
Our reputation in the community depends upon it.
