Customer Service Week was established in 1984 by the International Customer Service Association and is celebrate annually during the first full week of October. The United States began recognizing Customer Service Week in the late 1980’s but it became official on
October 8, 1992 when President George H. Bush gave his stamp of approval and signed a Presidential Proclamation (NO. 6485) proclaiming the first week of October as National Customer Service Week for the United States. This proclamation states:
A business will do a better job of providing high-quality goods and services by listening to its employees and by empowering them with opportunities to make a difference.
We thought Customer Service Week would be an excellent time to feature our customer service professionals, and their positions. Traditionally in the auto repair industry, most repair shops customer service is handled primarily by the Service Advisors. At Honest Accurate Auto Service we have a few positions that deal directly with the customers, our Service Advisors, our shuttle drivers, and our Quality Control Managers.
Our expert Service Advisors are responsible for checking your vehicle into the shop and collecting all the important information we need for the ASE Certified Technicians to work on your vehicle. They also communicate with our customers any information about their vehicle while we have their vehicle.
The Service Advisors also find all the parts for that are needed for the Technicians to do their job. Our Service Advisors are master communicators to our customers and for our customers to the technicians. They also greet everyone who comes into the shop. Our Service Advisors also handle all the vehicle records in our system of all the customer vehicles we care for. We rely on them for accurate, detailed information and communication. They are detail oriented and experts on various makes and models of cars, trucks, and SUVs.
