The problem it solves
Home service businesses often face challenges with customer satisfaction due to poor interpersonal skills among technicians.
How it makes money
Fee per training session or workshop, with additional revenue from follow-up coaching and resources provided to companies.
Skills you need
Experience in customer service training, strong communication and interpersonal skills, knowledge of the home service industry, and ability to create engaging training content.
The market, and why this works now
A rise in customer-centric service expectations among homeowners makes a Customer Experience Enhancement Program relevant now. Launching initial training sessions through platforms like LinkedIn Learning can generate immediate revenue. However, a risk exists in the labor intensity of developing high-quality training content and delivering it effectively, which may require significant upfront investment in skilled trainers.
