Resolving Customer Issues Successfully Requires a Plan

Good customer service is planned and not an accident. While we work very hard to provide the highest level of customer service, there are still issues that arise that must be dealt with in any business. In order to handle them well, you need a plan.
We call our plan WALRAS. While it is not spelled like the animal ‘walrus’ it certainly sounds like ‘walrus’ and it’s a great memory aid. WALRAS is the acronym for the plan. If you follow WALRAS you greatly improve your chances of calming the emotions of the situation, logically discussing solutions and regaining a happy customer.
