The importance of constructing (and following) a meaningful client service plan cannot be understated. Simply defined, a client service plan is a roadmap that defines the specific actions and processes around a firm’s client service objectives and related professional responsibilities. It also shows how these objectives can be met and exceeded.
A client service plan should serve to facilitate communication while eliminating boundaries between your firm and its clients. It is important that the plan is set up to anticipate and qualify client needs, while also highlighting related firm solutions. A well-constructed client service plan should lay a foundation for purposeful and sustainable future growth.
