In a situation where a customer gets a faulty goods or there is an issue with the service, what do you think is the best way to apologize to the customer and make things right? Some persons usually give discounts, while some offer coupons or free gifts and things like that.

I would offer to take responsibility for coming to get the faulty products and giving a replacement. I won't allow the customer to go through the stress of paying his or her way to get a replacement

l think in business, this is treated in a very special way. Here you can give the customers free giveaways as sign of apologizing to them for the truth of the matter.

That is the way to go. Replace the product and add a little extra for the customer. That would go a long way to pacify the customer and make him or her forget about the bad experience.

True, customers from what i have seen want to be treated like royalty. So in situations like its best to just start petting them, yes they would still react and all that but with time they would definitely calm down.

When the business is wrong, apologizing is the most important stuff. Most people won't really care about gifts or extra compensation. They just want their main problem solved. Of course, going the extra mile will be good too.

I think the best way to apologize our customer is to give some of our products for free in also giving some store credits so that they can buy things with less money in our store, and also offering some good deal on good, so in this way they think that we are sorry.

Yes, it is to take responsibility when you offer bad, damaged or faulty products to a customer. Yes, you can give a verbal apology but give a replacement more. it would be better.
