A tried and tested 5-step process to help practices deliver an excellent customer experience over the telephone.
What is it?
The first session looks at the why and how of client communication over the telephone – why it matters and how to get it right. We cover a range of key topics over two and a half hours:
- What is the customer experience? What does a ‘good’ and ‘bad’ experience feel like?
- Understanding the customer journey to and through the practice
- The Peak-End model of memory creation
- What is the Zero Moment of Truth and why does it matter?
- Using ‘listen, empathise, personalise’ to create an action plan
- Introducing the 5 Steps
In the second session we focus on what you need to do in order to deliver a consistently excellent telephone customer experience:
- Reviewing studies evidencing how choice of words is crucial
- Introducing the concept of recipient design, tailoring conversations according to the differing styles and needs of clients
- Looking at a range of common communication models
- Breaking down the 5 Steps in detail, with practical examples of how to implement each
Small group, maximum of 8 delegates, total 5 hours CPD – interactive style workshop. All delegates will receive a CPD certificate after the workshop.
This workshop will be run on Zoom. You will need to have sound, vision and a mic on your device as all delegates need to participate throughout.
From our conversations with many of you in practice we have heard you say that discussing the cost of care can be tricky. Thats why we have launches the "Talking about care and discussing fees" course!
This workshop has been developed to support both customer care and clinical teams in discussing veterinary fees confidently and clearly with clients.
Topics covered will include:
• Why value matters
• Building trust and empathy through client communications
• Discussing cost – the importance of transparency and understanding
• How to demonstrate value, not just the price
• What happens when we don’t do it well
• Creating best-practice conversations about fees
Now taking bookings for the first course running in April!

We know that for many people working in veterinary practice, discussing the cost of care can be tricky. This workshop will give delegates practical skills needed to handle these conversations confide...Worth a revisit
It’s all about connection.
There is admin that clients can do for themselves and are happy to choose to do if they wish to
Then there is a moment when care needs to be curated and coproduced eg the collaborative moments
So make sure to connect at point of need eg when a client needs help to know what to do
There’s admin
And there’s the need to help and connect
Most folks still call
Typically there are 1000 calls managed per vet per month and maybe a few hundred app chats or online bookings
So most folks do call as they need your help
So remember the phone still counts!
