The book has all the letters of the alphabet and each letter has a series of words that give insight on how to provide great guest service.
The following are helpful tips excerpted from the books section on the letter U.
Universal language. Smiling is the universal language. When people see a smile, it brightens their day. When people see you smile, they know youre happy. When people see a smile, they feel better. When people see a smile, theyre likely to give you one in return. Smiling is not hard to do. It actually requires fewer muscles than frowning. All you need to do is turn up the ends of your mouth a little and before you know it, theres a bright smile waiting to come out. Oh and dont forget to smile with your eyes, too.
Unbelievable. Thats the kind of experience your guests must have. They must be in awe of how much fun they had and how nice everyone was. When customers go to Wal-Mart and spend $100, they have something to show for it. When guests come to a gaming property, they dont always walk out with something tangible. When guests visit your property, they must have an unbelievable experience they can take home. Thats what they have to show for the time and money they spent.
Unique. Every guest is unique. Every guest service experience is unique. Therefore, you need to be unique in the way you provide it. You cannot take a cookie-cutter approach to service. Every guest wants things their specific way.
