Customer Service Tips for ESL Hospitality Workers

Good customer service involves workers adjusting themselves to the needs of their customers. In dining situations, meeting the needs of clients is very important in order to create customer loyalty and repeat business. Anticipating the needs of diners for even the smallest things is also important. It is the small touches, such as having a wide range of condiments ready, refreshing drinks in a prompt manner and even surprises such as providing complimentary mints or beverages after the meal; that make great customer service. It's very rare to give 100% perfect service, but what diners appreciate is someone who cares about their needs and is readily available throughout the dining experience.

Customers appreciate small friendly exchanges with their waiters or waitresses. Going the extra mile by genuinely engaging in small talk is a good way to make customers or diners feel comfortable. Customers also appreciate openness and honesty. If a waiter or waitress doesn't know something, the customer won't mind waiting while they check with the chef etc. Also taking responsibility for mistakes by giving a genuine apology can really diffuse situations, especially when dealing with difficult or angry people. Even if a waiter or waitress didn't personally make a mistake with the meal, it is still necessary to apologize on behalf of the chef or restaurant. Being pro-active when mistakes happen can help make the dining experience positive again. If there's been a mistake, a good waiter or waitress not only apologizes, but offer a suggestion to rectify things to provide exceptional customer service.

All I do is just to laugh on reading such article.. All they want is just for u to buy their manual and make money.. Surprisingly most of them don't have a farm of their own, they are computer farmers who don't have any experience whatsoever in the business.. I know of farms within my area who have shut down their farms due to frequent loss over the years.. I was also considering shutting down myself after I lost close to 2 million naira, yeah u heard me TWO MILLION NAIRA, but after diligent study which took about a year I decided to give it my last shot..
