In this article, you'll find sample prompts and tips to help you use ChatGPT in your customer service department. Let's start with a simple definition.

Prompt ChatGPT is being used more and more, but what does the term really mean? The term ChatGPT prompt simply refers to an instruction or question posed to ChatGPT.

The interactions you have with ChatGPT can only be initiated using these prompts. Prompts can take the form of a simple sentence, or more complex text such as a paragraph. You can specify constraints, exclusions and any specific instructions to help you get what you have in mind from the AI.

In the next few lines, we'll look at some of the ways in which ChatGPT can help you optimize your call center. However, bear in mind it's an assistant, and you'll almost certainly need to humanize certain responses or contextualize your prompt.

Here are the top 10 prompts to use in customer service call centers.

ChatGPT can help you respond positively to customer complaints. To do this, prompt ChatGPT to assist you as follows:

"We are a company in [industry name]. One of our customers placed an order and paid online, but has not received the product. However, it says that the product has been delivered. Put yourself in the shoes of a customer service agent and offer him a solution by being empathetic."

Open AI's artificial intelligence tool can also be used to create chatbot scripts and enrich their responses. Use the following prompt ChatGPT to achieve this:

"You're a customer relations professional tasked with creating a customer service chatbot for a website of a company in [industry name]. Generate 10 examples of effective phrases for the chatbot's greeting."

Empathy is one of the essential qualities for working in a call center. However, it's not always easy to be original and personalize your message. And yet, personalizing customer relations is essential to improving the customer experience. ChatGPT can help you respond positively to your customers if you use the following prompt.

“Generate 5 examples of phrases a customer service agent can use to empathize with a customer who hasn't had the expected experience or level of quality.”

Some companies offer their products and services all over the world, and must therefore adapt to the language and culture of their customers.

If this is the case for your company, know that your contact center agents can use ChatGPT to translate content on the fly, whether it's emails, comments on social networks, or Google reviews.

In fact, ChatGPT supports the translation of written content in over 50 languages! You can even translate text in several languages with a single prompt:

“Translate the following paragraph into Spanish, Haitian Creole, and Bulgarian:

‘It was a pleasure to help you. Your satisfaction is our top priority. Once again, we apologize for any inconvenience caused. If you have any further questions in the future or require any other assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us. We're here for you.'"

Even if you offer a top-quality service, there's always a chance that something will go wrong. Unfortunately, this can impact your customer's experience and your reputation. The customer is king, and you must do your best to provide the best possible experience or solution. Use the following prompt, it will help you manage their dissatisfaction.

“You're a customer service agent at a company in [industry name]. One of your customers is very dissatisfied because [context and cause of dissatisfaction]. Respond to this customer in a way that manages his dissatisfaction and eases his anger. Suggest a solution.

Example:

You're a customer service agent for a fruit delivery company. One of your customers is very upset because the fresh fruit he was expecting for a very important event was not delivered on time, even though he ordered it well in advance of the event. Respond to this customer in a way that manages his dissatisfaction and eases his anger. Suggest a solution.”

ChatGPT can generate support articles thanks to its ability to analyze and synthesize large volumes of information. However, be sure to provide it with sufficient context and detail according to the problems encountered. Some instructions will almost certainly need to be supplemented, but you'll have a solid foundation.

"Imagine you work for a company that offers an application for its online jewelry sales site. Write an article on how to solve a problem related to user account login. Start your article by talking about the most common causes of this problem. It could be a hardware problem, an ISP problem, server maintenance, an out-of-date application, incompatibility or incorrect logins.

Then provide a step-by-step guide to help users solve the problem independently. This guide should include detailed instructions as far as possible on how to check account connection, connectivity, compatibility, etc.

Provide clear, accessible instructions for users who are not necessarily technophiles or familiar with the terminology of the issues raised. Avoid using overly technical jargon whenever possible and favor simple sentences."

Reply from ChatGPT:

You can also use ChatGPT to create an internal knowledge base to which your employees can refer when necessary.

“You work as a customer service manager at a company in [industry name]. Write a knowledge base article on the topic: ‘How to deal with an unhappy customer as a customer service agent?' This article is intended for your colleagues. Suggest 10 tips for dealing with difficult customers to prevent them from turning away from your company's services. Write an introduction, a body text and a relevant conclusion.”

If you don't have a sentiment analysis tool, you can also turn to ChatGPT. It will still be able to give you some idea of how your customers feel, even in a summary way.

“You specialize in handling customer complaints. Analyze the customer's feelings using the following example: ‘Hello, I recently bought your product and was particularly disappointed by its quality. I've tried several times to contact customer service, without success. Can anyone help me solve this problem?'"

Reply from ChatGPT:

Looking for more information on how your customers perceive your brand, your products, or your customer service? Ask ChatGPT to create a script for your satisfaction survey.

“You specialize in improving the customer experience at a company in [industry name]. Recently, [context]. We'd like to carry out a satisfaction survey to get feedback on our users' experience and identify areas for improvement. This data will be used for future campaigns and to improve our application. Create a short satisfaction survey with 5 questions that will help us achieve this goal.”

Imagine you've had a long conversation with a customer by email or chat, and you need to summarize this exchange to a colleague so that he or she can help you with the issue. To save time, you can simply ask ChatGPT to summarize the conversation with the following prompt:

"Summarize this long conversation:

Customer (initial e-mail): Subject: Refund request - Order #12345

Dear Customer Service, I hope you are well. I recently placed an order on your site, but unfortunately the product I received is not at all what I expected. The quality is very poor and does not correspond at all to the description on your site. I would therefore like to request a full refund for this purchase. Can you guide me through the procedure for obtaining a refund? Thank you in advance for your assistance. Sincerely, Thomas”

Customer service agent (reply): Subject: Reply to your refund request - Order #12345

Dear Thomas, Thank you for taking the time to contact us regarding your recent order. I am sorry to hear that the product did not meet your expectations and I understand your disappointment. In order to resolve this issue, we would like to offer you a refund.”
