- Obtain pertinent information
- Find their RTP profile
- Find the transaction or order in question if applicable
- Check their access to verify type of passholder they may be
- Be patient and clear with your questions
- Ask simple questions that limits usage of resort specific terminology
- Remember that a guest may not understand our processes
Step 2) Search for the Answer
- Use your knowledge, tools and resources
- HelpJuice / RTP
- Microsoft Teams & Sharepoint
- Killington.com / Picomountain.com
- Easily searchable questions
- Don’t send a guest to another place or person to acquire information
- Seek the answer yourself
- Assist with the solution
Step 3) Request teams assistance
- Ask the cenres teams chat/your supervisor for help if your search was unsuccessful
- Remember to gather information first (IP, name, email, phone number)
- Inform the guest you are putting them on hold to look into an answer or solution
- Thank the guest for their patience
- If it takes longer than 5 minutes to find the answer, get a good callback phone number and inform the guest we will reach out when we have an answer for them.
- In person collect the guests email/info and tell them we can research the issue and pass it along to someone who may be able to find the answer and get back to them.
- Common situations you might team up on
- Processing cancellations outside of our policies
- RTP help
- Specific questions not answered by documentation provided
- Modifications to SP benefits and perks
- Pricing discrepancies
Step 4) Determine the Urgency
- Some concerns cannot be solved at time of initial contact and may not need to be. You may want to ask yourself:
- Is this an emergency?
- Are we placing the guest in a financial burden?
- Can it wait to be resolved when we are less busy?
- Can we provide a temporary solution and follow up later?
- Is this the guest's first point of contact? Are they already working with someone towards a resolution?
