Introduction of... me!

My name is Anu Majkvist. I'm an entrepreneur and networking nerd.

I have started and owned different comapnies, in different areas, mostly within B2B.
My full-time job today is running my firm Eldstaden- where I coach and speak about entrepreneurship and career development. I coach mostly business owners, start-ups, executives and employee-groups.

My whole life I have worked in service, from grocery store, cleaning lady and shop assistant  to waitress, bar tender and croupier. Later I have worked as HR-manager, market developer, KAM, consultant etc. I offer courses in customer service and relationship marketing. I love customer service and I'm very interested in what makes a happy, an loyal, customer.

My academic background is a BBA degree from Göteborg University School of Economy and business administration. Further I've studied work and organizational psychology, gender studies and innovation. Currently besides the course on understanding customer experience, I'm taking a course in "Basics of Lean".

When I don't work or study (which leave only few hours left on my day), I take my 9-year old daughter and 13-year old son to their soccer, breakdance and floor ball training, help my husband to run his restaurant, or just enjoy a short quiet moment in my garden in Varberg in Swedish West Coast.

influencing the restaurant customer

Here is a couple of ways we could use the principles of persuasion to improve customer experience in our restaurant: Authority: the chef could present the menu, preferably in person by the table in and tell something about for instance how the food is prepared. Or if the chef is not available in person e could write a description or a story about the menu composition in the menu for the customer to read about. Our sommelier can organize wine/beer/spirit tasting and tell about the products qualities. This engages the customer and at the same time educates/gives new information about the product while offering a pleasant customer experience. Scarcity: We can offer menus or drinks for limited time only. For instance special menu for Easter, Mother´s day, midsummer or Christmas. Also in the bar we can offer beer of the month, cocktail of the month or other special limited time offers. Food or drinks can also be offered on season, for instance fresh berries during the summer or m

Moduel 4 about customer interractions

In the coming blogs and in the course we will dive into the exciting world of customer interactions. This I believe really is the core of any business: the customer and the service provider interracting with each other. I’m looking forward to learn about the theories connected into customer interraction.  Having worked in customer service my whole life (since I was 14, and still going strong!) I have decades of emiprical experience on the subject. I absolutely love meeting and talking to my customers. My style of service is personal, engaging and preferably humoristic, when applicable.  Although I consider myself being a person who gets along with everyone, I still meet an angry or dissatisfied customer every now and then. The challenge is to try to change their perspective, and make things right. 99 times out of 100 it works out well. I’m looking forward to read about the academics point of view when it comes to good practises in customer interraction, and what to do when thin

Resource integration and servicescapes

Resource integration gives a new perspective to how the customer's are affected and co-create value to the product or service. In her tutorial video, assistant professor Maria Åkesson decribes resource integration as how the customers interact with each other in the servicescape. Very little of this process can be influenced by the firm (open part), most of the resource integration happens without the firm's inclunece, only on the customer's terms (closed part). Customer for instance uses resources before and after a direct contact with the firm, such as finding information online, or asking friends for advice. Here the firm's assignment is to make the resources as user-friendly as possible. In a restaurant this could be easy-to-find-menus and other information on web-sites and the social media. The word of mouth becomes a useful tool, when the restuarants reputation is on the top. Other customers recommend the place to their friends, and talk about in positive terms
