Is putting a caller on hold considered a poor customer service tactic?

Yes, but really it's bound to happen. Stores don't have enough workers to answer the phone & stay to chat long. So they put you on hold. But at the bottom line, people get less upset by being put on hold by a real human being, than they get being put on hold by a robotic voice. Department stores however shouldn't put you on hold because they should have a good amount of workers.

Why customer service and innovation are important to the manager job?
Smile while taking the call, the customer calling can tell it by your voice. Be attentive and listen closely to what he or she is asking you. If a customer is rude, let them be rude, but if they want to curse you, briefly tell them you are here to help them, not listen to their bad words. Always try as hard as you can to assist the caller and be quick and be thorough with everything you know about your company, their services, what the company strives to be and why. BE KIND and helpful and if you don't know the answer to a question, briefly put them on hold and ask someone that does and when you do get back online, always Thank them to holding. Always put them first, after all your customers are the important people that keep your company number one and also displays your attitude to assist them with what they need. They pay your salary. Be tactful yet willing to listen to their complaints and be careful how you solve them, one word can make the conversation seem irrevalant what you are to do for them. Thank you
Why do businesses keep customer records?
You are required by law, for tax purposes, to maintain records of transactions for a certain period of time. But more importantly, maintaining customer records will help you provide better service to your customers. I buy supplies from a company who knows who is on the phone via caller ID (because they kept a record of my phone number). By the time they answer the call, my records are on a computer screen in front of the person answering the call. They know my order history, my shipping address, my credit card number, etc. I say "I'd like to order some boxes". They ask if I want the same size as last time, is my shipping and credit card information the same...I say yes, they say "Your order will ship today". They make the process quick and easy for me because they keep (and use) detailed customer records. Also, you can market directly to your customers if you maintain their records. You can mail them a catalog or send them an email. You could even target a sales promotion at just a portion of your customers based on their buying habits. It usually costs hundreds of dollars in advertising to attract a customer for the first time. After that, you can communicate with them for pennies if you keep customer records.

How do you make sales on phone calls?
I believe that if you are providing a service they may or may not know they need yet. It is not a cold call! It's just a simple friendly introduction. When I make these calls, (and I have made many) I know at the end of the day my services are needed. The reason cold calling gets a bad rap is many people do it with out their heart in it. To be an effective cold caller you must be friendly, outgoing, assertive, and helpful. There are too many people in the game now that think you can just read a script (Hating it the whole time) and be effective. The people on the other end can and will pick up on this. In "Cold Calling" you must bring you're "A" game. You also must believe in your self and your ability to help. They will then listen. I run an outbound lead generation call center see our link below. We charge on a pay per introduction basis. == * http://telehammers.com

What does the Caller ID 1123456789 mean on your phone?
I am not sure, if the number displayed is a valid call ID number, but Caller ID displays the phone number of the person who made the call to you including the area code and phone number. From this you an identify the person calling you. If you have a phone book system in the phone and you have saved phone numbers with names, some phones will display name of the person from the address book when the caller id matches the stored number. Some times the number displayed on caller ID is not a standard phone number. Some of these calls may be from a VOIP service or from some customer service call centers (internal on the service provider network) or when the caller ID is masked by the caller or caller's network service provider. - Neeraj Sharma
