There was something distinctively different and attractive in the way that Sara Smith treated others. As an employee, she was a shining example for other co-workers simply because of her friendly personality. People tended to gravitate toward her. This was especially true in her relationships with the many loyal customers that she had won over the years.

Sara was what I would consider a “customer service superstar.” Her greatest asset to the organization was in having the ability to bring customers back as well as encourage fellow co-workers to become their best on the job. She clearly made a positive impact and was an excellent example in consistently delivering excellent customer service.

Anyone who knew Sara would always comment on her geniune friendliness toward others. Customers would feel comfortable from the start because of the warm and friendly welcome she gave to them. She consistently showed others respect and always took an interest in others. Even her pleasant tone of voice had a way of drawing people back. Her ability to make customers feel important was due to how Sara consistently gave them her undivided attention.

The way Sara listened to her customers made it clear that she truly cared that their needs were met. She had the ability to ask the right questions without interrupting or losing patience. Sara clearly had the ability to gain the customer’s trust within the first few minutes simply because she consistently offered the gift of listening.

Another great attribute that made Sara a customer service superstar was her enthusiasm for serving others. People tended to gravitate toward her by her unselfish focus on her customers. Anyone who knew Sara could see that she truly considered it an honor to serve others. This positive attribute also had a way of bringing out the best in her fellow co-workers.

Never one to complain, Sara had a way of making others feel appreciated. Customers who were helped by her would walk away feeling that they were served by the most thankful person in the world. This not only left them with a great feeling as they walked out the door, but also made them want to return simply because of Sara and the way she made them feel.

Sara also had an innate ability of making her customers feel accepted by the sincere respect and warm welcome that she consistently showed to others. Never one to speak unkindly, Sara always had an encouraging word to both her co-workers and customers. Her words were always positive, encouraging, and never critical. Everyone on her team appreciated how she chose her words wisely.

Customers could not help but walk away feeling that they were just given the absolute best service. This is because Sara understood the power of appreciation and respect for the customer. Each day customers would ask to be assisted by Sara. Many customers would drive out of their way simply to be served by her. She was highly valued within her company, a positive encouragement to her fellow co-workers, and loved by her customers. This is what made Sara an outstanding superstar in the field of customer service.
