3. Quality service is an experience of feeling valued or heard. Sometimes
it’s an intangible component of why a guest may prefer one tourism or
hospitality provider over another. There is something about quality
customer service that you often can’t put your finger on — but you
know it’s there.
Customer satisfaction is a person feeling satisfied or otherwise after
comparing between the reality and expectations received from a
product or service. Customer satisfaction can directly be achieved by
providing a quality service to customers. The higher the value received
by customer, the higher the level of satisfaction and consequently the
higher the number of more loyal customers.
Training is critical to ensuring quality service and meeting these
objectives

10. If a business fails to meet customer expectations, there’s a risk the customer
will tell others about it. To avoid any problem from escalating, organizations
and staff must work hard to resolve issues before the customer walks out the
door.
Of course, it’s not always possible to resolve issues on the spot. A customer’s
expectations may go beyond the service the business is able to provide, or
staff might not be authorized by management to provide the means
necessary to resolve the complaint. In these cases, staff must still step up as
service professionals, realizing that the actions they take when faced with a
complaint can have a significant impact.
How a business handles complaints, face-to-face or otherwise, is critical to
ensuring successful recovery from service failures.
TQS BRIGADE
11. Service recovery
Service recovery occurs when a
customer service professional
takes action that results in the
customer being satisfied after a
service failure has occurred.
Often service failures are not
the fault of front-line staff, and
at times, may not even be the
fault of the business. Failure
may be the result of an error
made by another employee, by
the guest him- or herself, or by
a technical error. Regardless of
where the problem originated,
when customers bring it to the
attention of the staff, they have
certain expectations for
resolution.

blocks for resolving disputes
