The 4 types of customer
概要
TLDRThis week's training minute focuses on identifying different types of customer personalities using a model by psychologists David Merrill and Roger Reed, which categorizes customers into four types: driver, expressive, analytical, and friendly. Understanding these types helps in handling dissatisfied customers effectively. The 'driver' wants quick results, while the 'expressive' is emotional and social. Analysts are precise and may appear cold, and 'friendly' individuals seek acceptance and are generally conflict-averse. Each type responds differently to dissatisfaction: 1. **Driver**: Show commitment and respect commitments to ease their anger. 2. **Expressive**: Listen empathetically without interrupting their venting. 3. **Analyst**: Use evidence to support your claims and avoid emotional reactions. 4. **Friendly**: Develop good relationships to ensure continuous engagement. This model helps manage stressful experiences with difficult customers by adapting effectively to various situations and minimizing conflicts.

The training video discusses various types of customers, leveraging the Merrill and Reid model, which categorizes customers into four personalities: driver, expressive, analytical, and friendly. Each type has distinct characteristics and requires a specific approach to handle dissatisfaction effectively. For example, drivers want quick results and have strong opinions on process efficiency. Expressive customers are emotional and can be influenced by personal issues. Analysts value accuracy and are skeptical of information that doesn't meet their standards. Friendly customers avoid conflict but may switch providers quietly after an issue. Understanding these types helps manage difficult interactions more successfully.
