Customer Care On Twitter - Thumb Rules

  • Always use CRISP yet SIMPLE language in your communication
  • Never hesitate to use the words ‘PLEASE’, ‘THANK YOU’ & SORRY FOR THE INCONVENIENCE’ where applicable
  • Always address yourself as ‘WE’ when representing a brand
  • PROOFREAD your typed 140 characters thoroughly before tweeting. A tweet once gone through can only be deleted from their server before the next refresh, which happens FAST
  • If not sure, always take a SECOND OPINION on which tweet to reply to & which to ignore
  • If someone is thanking you for resolving their problem, don’t hesitate to reply with ‘YOU’RE ALWAYS WELCOME :)
  • Twitter crowd is intelligent & can catch your bluff. Always be GENUINE, WARM & HUMBLE in every tweet that you choose to reply to, REGARDLESS of how much the person is trying to ridicule/abuse you
  • When there is a complaint & people gang up for it, never address the CROWD. Only address the person the complaint belongs to. On the other hand when people collectively appreciate your effort. THANK THEM ALL
  • Never ADDRESS anyone informally even if they get very warm & personal.
  • Never ever warn anyone against use profanity in tweets directed towards you. IGNORANCE is truly bliss!
  • Enjoy conversations. They are all HUMAN :)
