About this book
"Haters are not your problem. Ignoring them is. Eighty percent of companies say they deliver outƯstanding customer service, but only 8 percent of their customers agree. This book will help you close that gap by reconfiguring your customer service to deliver knockout experiences. The near-universal adoption of smartphones and social media has fundamentally altered the science of complaints. Critics ("haters") can now express their displeasure faster and more pubƯlicly than ever. These trends have resulted in an overall increase in complaints and a belief by many businesses that they have to "pick their spots" when choosing to answer criticisms. Bestselling author Jay Baer shows why that approach is a major mistake. Based on an extenƯsive proprietary study of how, where, and why we complain, Hug Your Haters proves that there are two types of complainers, each with very differƯent motivations: ·Offstage haters. These people simply want solutions to their problems. They complain via legacy channels where the likelihood of a response is highest--phone, e-mail, and comƯpany websites. Offstage haters don't care if anyƯone else finds out, as long as they get answers. ·Onstage haters. These people are often disapƯpointed by a substandard interaction via tradiƯtional channels, so they turn to indirect venues, such as social media, online review sites, and discussion boards. Onstage haters want more than solutions--they want an audience to share their righteous indignation. Hug Your Hat
