February 1 - February 22, 2016 17 Working World l WorkingWorld.com JOB OPPORTUNITIES problems—are the sales culture anchor. Knowing where to turn in the event of an issue arising means getting to the client quickly and correctly. When a company transfers customers to "the next person who can fix this" it creates a massive gap in effectiveness and efficiency, and can leave customers angry—which hurts business. When you foster a sales culture your employees realize their value is not merely tied to their title. They are people with a value proposition who can truly articulate what they do and know what others do as well. 5. A great sales culture builds a better company, better products and creates more satisfied clients. The people delivering customer service have a direct impact on the clients' desire to make referrals. When was the last time you received a positive referral because of a lapse in customer service? 6. It's all about the mindset. Building a sales culture and a customer service culture starts and ends with the core belief that this is about a mindset; not a book, guide or manual. It's not a flowchart. Delivering the right stuff means your staff has a mentality to do the best and right thing and not feel forced to do it. You can't make someone have the right mindset, but you can encourage, train and motivate people to use their best and bring the right attitude every day to the job. So you see that sales culture and customer service work hand in hand. Sales culture and customer service are not the byproducts of a spreadsheet that shows some details that need to be fixed reactively. The principles and building blocks of sales culture are alive and well in the workings of highly successful customer service departments. We are all in sales, and we are all in customer service because we all have a chance to make a client happy, more satisfied, and a strong referral source for future business.
