Building Trust Through Responsiveness
Manage episode 474396742 series 2832311
What happens in those crucial moments when customers reach out for help? The difference between frustration and relief often comes down to one simple factor: responsiveness.
Responsiveness in customer service is vital, especially when addressing time-sensitive needs in the insurance sector where a quick, accurate answer can make all the difference. Our Business Engagement Unit was created specifically to redefine traditional admin roles by hiring top talent focused on immediate customer response.
• Responsiveness builds trust, fosters relationships, and enables efficient problem-solving
• Empathy is crucial—putting yourself in others' shoes and providing service you'd expect
• Injured workers experience disruption to their lives and need immediate support
• Lack of response can lead to mistrust, increased costs, and potential litigation
• The Business Engagement Unit answers calls live rather than using automated systems
• Cross-training ensures representatives can answer multiple types of questions
• Multiple communication channels (phone, email, text, chat) meet customers where they are
• Setting clear expectations when immediate answers aren't possible prevents frustration
• Acknowledging mistakes, taking responsibility, and making things right builds stronger relationships
• Leaders must model responsive behavior with their own teams
We encourage you to like, follow, and give us a review—we would love a five-star review to help others find this podcast. Do right, think differently, and don't forget to care.
Season 9 is brought to you by Berkley Industrial Comp. This episode is hosted by Greg Hamlin.
