​The leaders at Scorpion Associates prepare for the crushing demands of the holiday season through team training. “Customer interactions increase dramatically during the holidays,” stated Joslyn, the firm’s director of operations. “We want to make sure that our team members are prepared for the hectic nature of the season. To do so, we organize team training sessions that touch on a range of critical topics.”

Joslyn and her fellow leaders focus on customer service during group training sessions. “We know people are pressed for time during the holiday season, and they want to get the answers they need quickly,” she added. “Our team members know how to engage people while keeping interactions swift and efficient. During the holidays, that is the best strategy for making positive impressions on customers.”

Company leaders also use a team approach when they set expectations. The director commented, “It’s easy to get caught up in the rush of the holiday season and lose sight of what you are striving to accomplish. We like to get out in front of this tendency by bringing our people together and outlining specific year-end goals. I don’t want our team to give in to the stress of the season and waste opportunities to deliver big wins for the brands we represent.”

Through this commitment to ongoing training and setting solid expectations, Scorpion Associates’ leaders have ensured strong performance through the busiest times.

It’s also crucial to be accessible to consumers throughout the holiday season. “We take advantage of technology to stay in touch with customers,” Joslyn added. “Whether it’s through social media, chat tools, or e-mail, we want people to know where to find our associates when they have questions or concerns. Time is of the essence during these final weeks of the year, so we do our best here at Scorpion Associates to be right where customers need us to be.”
