Customer service — Entrepreneurship for kids

Good customer service brings people back. Greet with a smile, serve people in turn, give correct change, keep food clean and covered and the prices clear. When something goes wrong, listen, say sorry and fix it — a fixed problem can win a loyal customer. Rude replies, arguing, hidden prices or wrong change drive customers away.

Business tip

Listen, sorry, fix, thank — “treat every customer the way you like to be treated”

  1. Good: greeting with a smile, correct change, saying thank you, listening to complaints, clean covered food, a clear price board, fixing mistakes quickly.
  2. Poor: ignoring customers, wrong change, rude replies, arguing, dirty hands with food, hiding prices, chatting on the phone.
  3. A complaint: listen → say sorry → fix it → thank them.

Use it for: Every sale, every complaint and every order.

Worked example: 😟 A customer says the lemonade is too sour. Best reply? → say sorry, add sugar

  1. Listen, say sorry and fix it.
  2. So: say sorry, add sugar.

Check: Try it: role-play a complaint with a family member and practise “sorry — let me fix that” ✓
