Yes, service is selling, too!
When you sell a service or product, you are helping the person to get what they want, what they need, what they think they need.
By Gary Hernbroth
I don't know whether to laugh or cry when I hear someone say, "I'm not in sales, I'm in customer service." They apparently have not seen the light as to two important tenets that I've learned over my career, being on both sides of the sales and service coin:
When you are selling someone something, you are providing a service to them;
When you are giving someone customer service, you are in effect selling them something too.
Here's why:
When you sell a service or product, you are helping the person to get what they want, what they need, what they think they need, etc. The customer’s perception is that your service or product will somehow improve their life, make things work better for them, give them satisfaction, or set them up for success. Thus, you are providing them a service through the sale. On the other side of the coin, when you provide outstanding customer service to someone, you are really accomplishing two very important things sales-wise. One, you are reinforcing their idea that they made a great buying decision (for example, "I'm glad I came here / "I'm glad I chose them” / “I made the right decision!" etc.). Second, you are re-proving your worth and thus making a re-sale more likely -- increasing the odds that they will buy from you again -- thanks to the satisfaction and impression they get from your service. Thus, you are selling through great service, or at least setting the plate for a re-sale. I don’t believe enough organizations really fully grasp this concept, at least all the time. They are so very sales-oriented, but not so hot on the service after the sale. Have you been there, done that, too?
Sales Without Service Just Doesn't Work
I’ve long held with my presentations and discussions with clients that you really can’t have one without the other. A recent example in my own life as a consumer happened just last week. I went through one of those excruciating experiences we all face sooner or later...I had to buy a new smartphone. The salesperson took me through various options, answered my many questions (hey, it’s how we learn stuff!), and by process of elimination helped me select the right phone for my needs. A sale was born. The “a-ha” moment in my eyes unquestionably occurred immediately following the signing of my autograph on the credit card slip. I put their service game to the test. How good was the salesperson going to be helping me set up my phone, explain the nuances, suggest new apps, and all that other junk we have to know about a new device?
