It is important to remember that customers have a great deal of anxiety in the selection of a new vendor. The anxiety is especially high with the first few orders (whether it be a new contact at existing customer, or an entirely new customer). By demonstrating to the customer that your company has a well thought out, orchestrated, in writing, documented, systematic, comprehensive, integrated approach, (you get the idea here), you can help relieve that anxiety. Certainly, you probably will not cover the entire production methodology with a customer, but there are many ways to include things in the conversation that will help provide "anesthesia" for the customer's anxiety.

For example:

1. Write down how the project is going to be used, so that you can cover all of the details at your morning production meeting with all of the people who will be working on the project, so the client can easily understand how important the work is to your organization.

2. Be looking at reports of your inventory amounts on a weekly basis. Stay informed with the progress of a customer’s specific order. Do what you can to ensure that nothing gets overlooked or accidentally side-stepped.

3. If a problem occurs, take responsibility and apologize to the client for the problem. Acknowledge that a mistake occurred that should not have been made and inform the client how you will ensure that it does not happen again. For example: “Specifically, what I have done is to meet with all department heads to discuss my write-up of the problem and we have created 3 concrete action items to prevent its re-occurrence.”

You can see that one way your company can help ensure that there is a reduction of anxiety for customers, is by your commitment to having a high level of verbal and written internal communication which creates an environment of teamwork. Working together to delight the customer is so important. Providing a thoroughness and attention to detail is a very important part of your business. As your organization handles more complex programs for customers, capturing information and reports, and analyzing that information to improve the programs, and to provide the customer with information that will help them manage their business as well, will become increasingly important.
