Dear
Uniqlo,
customer
service
is
not
a
department
Preparing
myself
for
a
hot
summer
I
decided
to
buy
some
cool
basics
from
#Uniqlo
in
Milan.
Happy
to
enter
the
#flagship
store
without
the
usual
crowd
I
collected
my
basics
and
went
for
the
check
out.
Out
of
the
7
check
outs,
2
were
occupied,
while
15
customers
were
waiting
in
line.
No
self
check
out
was
available.
Staff
was
running
in
and
out
but
nobody
was
asked
to
join
or
decided
to
help
out.
Customers
stood
in
line,
growling
and
complaining.
It
seems
a
disease
a
lot
of
retailers
are
suffering
from.
By
focussing
on
on
short
term
results,
efficiency,
operational
excellence
and
new
technologies
they
miss
out
on
the
big
opportunities;
people!
Making
their
staff
and
customers
fans.
Staff
is
treated
as
costs
while
they
could
be
brand
ambassadors.
Customer
service
is
much
more
than
having
a
chatbot
or
a
department
handling
the
complaints.
Why
invest
in
a
flagship
store
but
save
out
on
staff
and
real
customer
focus?
