TASK 1: SATISFY COMPLEX CUSTOMER NEEDS

Customer needs
I will find customer needs by listening customer and by asking him
specific question to have a better idea of the customer needs. I must not
make assumption, and ask the customer questions to not make customer
needs mistakes.
Once I have the customer needs, I will propose product and/or service that
match at best customer needs. It is often impossible to fill customer need
fully, for example for car world if customer want certain specific for the
car he will have to wait 2 months.
When we present a product to customer we will make sure to promote the
benefits of the product to make the customer want to buy it and know
how the product will benefit him.
Customer rarely know specifically what they want and might change mind
on certain requirements, that is why I must continually check with
customer to ensure that I understand their needs.

The sales person were very attentive on my needs, and listened

me, and provide product that were really related to my needs. Also
he was a ggood negotiator, I was unhappy about the 2-month
delivery and he gave me a discount of 15% for the long wait which
was decisive in making my decision to purchase the car.
Where could the salesperson improve?

The sales person should provide more details about the vehicle,
and better comparison on why or why not the vehicle is better
than others. I think to do this it require more in depth knowledge
of cars and car manufacturer.

Addition to policies and procedures

The policies should be revised to add:
- A link to relevant legislation must be added
- Add information on where to retrieve documents (consent form, service
feedback questionnaire, customers right and responsibilities document)
- Be more detailed on the procedures to meet customers needs, including
typical question to ask
- Create a checklist to ensure that every needed information is
communicated to customers
- More information on strategic partner, for example what they specialize
in.
- Add information on refund policies based on the Australian Consumer

Laws
Written Reflection
a. Encourage staff
To encourage staff to participate in networking and information gathering I
would:
- ensure customer consultation policies are respected.
- be a role model by respecting organisation policies and procedures and
by setting high working standard to myself
- Create reward policies for good performance to give motivation to
employees to perform well and engage in networking and information
gathering
- gather client feedback even if they did not purchase anything to gather
data on the effectiveness and to identify improvement of our policies and
procedures for consumer consultation
- I would ensure that employees are aware and understand current
policies, and that they know were to find them
b. Professional associations / trade information
I have identified two professional associations, adhering to those
associations will help us increase our network, and will give our company
a better and more professional image:
- Motor Trade Association of Australia (http://www.mtaa.com.au/)
- Australian Automobile Association (http://www.aaa.asn.au/)
I have also identified two sources of trade information, those sources can
be useful to gather data on the car industry current prices and
competitors:
- Red Book (http://www.redbook.com.au/), provide information on market
prices and competitors
- Drive (http://www.drive.com.au/), provide review and analysis of cars and
component
c. Car customizers
We should network with more car customizer with the objective to create
new partnership and increase our product and service range.
I have identified two car customizer companies that we could contact:
- Car Mod Australia CMA (https://www.carmodsaustralia.com.au/)
- Beyond and Custom (http://www.beyondcustom.com.au/)
The strategy to direct contact them, present our elf and ask to talk to, or
to have the contact detail, of the manager so that we can discuss
potential partnership, and the benefits that both of us will gain from this
partnership. For us we will have a wider range of product to offer to our
customers, for them it will give them an increase in activity.
d. Value to Car World

The above strategies to encourage staff networking and information
gathering will add value to Car World company because it will ensure
employees keep record of information, and that employee perform better
and are more productive.
The strategy to contact new car customizers will have the benefit for us to
be able to provide a wider range of product to our customers. The
customizer above have good market reputation and are local, therefore
we can expect fast delivery.
The strategy to adhere to professional association and trade information
will ensure that we increase our network and knowledge of the car
market.
e. Document retrieval
To create digital document, it require skill in Microsoft Office, or, if the
company has special front end interface to enter data (such as customer
data), then employees must be trained to use those tools.
Overall document storing should be stored in the file server, or in the
cloud, according to the organisation document storage policies. They must
use appropriate name that reflect the purpose or content of the
document.
To retrieve information employees must be aware of where the
information is stored and of procedure to retrieve information. In a
standard computer infrastructure, files are stored in a file server, therefore
file can be retrieved by knowing the path to the file. However, I believe
car business have special front end interface to search and retrieve data,
in this case employees must be trained to use those special application.
To ensure employees understand the need to properly store document I
should discuss with them the reason why document storing is important. It
is important to store document and data because it might be useful for
someone else. Sharing document with the rest of the company ensure
that the overall company knowledge increase, and the knowledge in the
document will be accessible by other employees.
f. Effective regular communication with customers
Effective regular communication will come from training our staff to follow
policies and procedures to communicate with customers. For the service
to be consistent we must measure the performance of employees. It can
be done by measuring customer satisfaction, number of customer
complaint and the sales that every employees does.
We can also engage with tem by:
- contacting them regularly (not too often, Spam) to give them information
on current promotion and company details
- Engage them on social media and share content often to retain and
communicate with customers.
