When a customer is upset or angry, staying calm and professional is essential. Take deep breaths, speak slowly and clearly, and avoid being defensive. Keep in mind that the ultimate goal is to find a solution, not to win an argument.

Staying calm and professional, even in difficult situations, helps to find practical solutions rather than arguments. Once the issue is resolved, following up with the customer to ensure their satisfaction demonstrates that you care about their experience and can help maintain a positive relationship. By utilizing these strategies, customer service interactions can become opportunities to provide exceptional service and build positive customer relationships.
