P1
Customer Service Approaches .
The two contrasting businesses I have chosen are Tesco and Nike. They differ in terms of
their products and services, and features such as their ownership, scope of activities, and
competitors.
Tesco .
One approach to delivering customer service is by having a customer service desk in all of
their stores. This allows customers to ask questions and enquiries which they may have.
This can be about a product, service; anything related to Tesco. This is good, because it
shows that Tesco cares about any problems a customer may have, and are willing to help
them. They are available whenever Tesco is open.
A second approach is having employees also partake in giving manually giving customers
assistance with anything, which could be helping them locate a product they can’t find or
possibly helping them with their shopping. Likewise with the first approach, it shows Tesco
cares about their stakeholders. It will improve their reputation.
Tesco’s third approach to delivering customer service is by providing an online and phone
service for this. They have a website which has information on Tesco’s contact details. This
is convenient as customers can send in enquiries at anytime although, they may not be
answered for hours. Customers are able to contact them for any enquiries they have through
phone calls and emails. This is convenient as they can be accessed from 9am-8pm, Monday
through Saturday and 11am-5pm on Sundays.
Nike .
An approach Nike takes towards delivering customer service is their mobile application, so
customers are able to make purchases. This is convenient as it allows customers to buy
things they want and need whenever they please. It also allows them to ask for a refund on
products they want returning.
A second approach would be Nike encouraging its customers to join Nike+, a fitness
website. Customers are able to upload information about their runs and about any upcoming
events. Here they engage with their own family and friends, and they also engage with Nike
