#42 – Working with Frustrated Customers

May 6, 2014 By Chase Clemons

This week, we’re talking about how to work with frustrating customers. It’s easy to get frustrated with a customer. I’ve been there, done that, and got the t-shirt.

These are the customers that aren’t answering your questions. They’re not trying what you ask. They just keep complaining about the problem while expecting you to magically fix it.

But at the end of the day, you’re on their team just like your mom was on yours even though you sucked it up at junior pro basketball. So let’s talk about how to work with them in those situations.
