Communicating with customers: Pricing (Part 1 of 2)

Practice with colleagues before you’re caught not knowing what to say to a customer.

How do you respond when someone says “I could buy new for that price.” or “That’s too expensive. How can it be done cheaper?” or a designer asks for a discount. This is not a conversation about what to answer, as pricing is determined by each business, but how to answer to portray confidence in your pricing.

Communicating with customers: Customer Service (Part 2 of 2).

Practice with colleagues before you’re caught not knowing what to say to a customer.

How do you respond when someone wants an update on work everyday, or when someone doesn’t like your work. This is not a conversation about what to answer, as policies are determined by each business, but how to answer to portray confidence in your policies.
