Just got off the phone with a customer that I had cleaned twice before, she has me clean every 2 years or so. I was using perceptionist about 2 years ago when she called then complaining about the phone service that she had received. I then reassured her that I was in the transition of switching to a new service(Full Circle) she calmed down and booked the job. She called again today to my home number and wanted to book a job. We agreed to a date and time, after that she starts telling me how I am losing business because the girls are screwing everything up! I calmly asked what she was refering to and she said that her neighbor tried to book a job and that when she called back with a question, they did not have her down for the work. I again asked her when this happened so I could look into it. She could not tell me a date and then said that my office girls must have been DRUNK that day! This lady is an elderly lady and always kinda grouchy anyway. I told her that I did not appreciate her calling my staff drunk. She says "well, they are not doing there job and if you are not going to take care of it, do you want me to call someone else?" Yes, please, thank you!
My feeling is, that there was no making her happy. She always was happy with the results of my cleaning, but never refered anyone. I personally have never heard from any of my existing or new customers of any complaints with Full Circle. I am an owner/ operator and Full Circle works perfectly for me. My only other option is voice mail or try to answer while I am cleaning in the customers home, which is a no-no with me. I am not in a position to hire a full time office gal or have a couple of techs out cleaning while I answer the phones.
Sorry, had to vent a little.
Thanks!
