This document provides training for retail associates on effective customer service. It covers topics such as understanding that the customer is important, not always right; defining good service as meeting or exceeding customer expectations; and using a 4-step process for sales: first impressions, greetings, sharing information, and closing the sale. For each step, it offers guidance on building trust and rapport with customers through eye contact, tone of voice, questions to understand needs, and making the customer feel comfortable. The overall message is that associates should take pride in providing excellent customer service in order to help customers, support sales, and further their own careers.
