- Customer service teams are under less stress thanks to confidence in their newly learned skills.
- Staff turnover rates are reduced.
- Effective and timely dealing with customers reduces costs and lessens the likelihood of a negative reputation.
- Higher customer satisfaction levels and greater retention will help gain more business.

How is the Course Delivered?
WeTrain’s Dealing with Difficult Customers course is generally presented as an engaging, interactive and fun one-day program, however we can tailor the content to present a shorter session for conferences and events.
We aim to deliver training which is completely relevant to your business and your team. That’s why we undertake an initial consultation, where we assess the skill level of your attendees, address your desired outcomes and find out valuable information about your company and its current set-up.
Remember, it’s your course, so you get to decide where it takes place. We are happy to teach WeTrain’s Dealing with Difficult Customers program either from your workplace or at a venue of your choice.
WeTrain’s Dealing With Difficult Customers training is a one-day program.
Convenient Training at Your Premises or Off-Site
WeTrain can come to your office if you have the right space and facilities to host your training, or we can talk about off-site venues to conduct your training.
What Are Ideal Course Numbers?
Our courses are typically ‘hands-on’, so we suggest keeping numbers to a minimum of 3 and a maximum of 12 people. This allows our trainer to interact with your entire group yet still have enough time to allow for one-to-one interactions.
If your group exceeds 12, we will happily structure your training program to meet the needs of a larger audience. Please contact us to discuss your requirements.

What HR Professionals Are Saying About WeTrain And Their Soft Skills Training Programs
The trainer really sought to understand our working situation in order to customise a Customer Service training program that would support the team in improving their skills in their everyday roles. It was important to me that the training was practical and experiential so that the team related to the potential benefits and felt confident to implement what they had learned day one back in the office. Thankfully this has proven to be the case and has allowed us as team to focus on how we can continue to improve our customer service.The trainer conducted the training in an engaging manner and was constructive and clear on how people could enhance their skills further—again very practical. This was a key part of helping people adjust and improve their approach to their role.“

“To any potential users of WeTrain specialised training, I would like to highly recommend their services. We used them to recently to provide Exceptional Customer Service training for our operational staff in the field.
The trainer took the time to come out and see our operations, understand our requirements and build a training package that especially suited our needs. She really understands the intricacies of how operational and field staff can and should provide great customer service and was able to get that message across to our staff in a fun, learning environment.
We are extremely pleased with the result, as many of our staff have commented that they feel more empowered as they now have the tools to deal with tricky situations, understand great communication and general customer service etiquette.
We highly recommend their services as we know you will be as pleased as we are with the end result.”
