Soft Skills Training for Field Service Technicians
Technicians working in the field need technical skills to install and repair systems, as well as to solve any problems that arise. But that’s not all they do. Technicians also work every day with customers, communicating solutions and delivering what we hope is great service.
Our Proactive Service® program, for Field Service Technicians, delivers the soft skills training they need to achieve outstanding levels of customer satisfaction and increase sales and profitability through their actions.
This course is a “how to” on providing exceptional service while growing the business through technicians.
The Proactive Service course is a positive experience for anyone in the trade seeking to develop and/or reaffirm their customer service savvy. No amount of technical proficiency matters without having customers and, therefore, customer satisfaction is paramount to success in the trade. Everyone should attend this.
