--- title: Building a Better Customer Experience | Empathy description: "Empathy | Shaping great customer experiences begins with one of the first critical moments that matter, the phone call. Smartphones and the ease of click-to-call are driving phone call volumes up. Dealership employees are finding they are spending more time on the phone making connections, answering caller’s questions, collecting information, and creating the desire for the caller to want to come in and see their boat. The telephone is the primary entry point for a prospective boater to connect with a dealership." --- Topic # Empathy empathy - [All Post](https://blog.heartbeatlabs.io) - [phone skills](https://blog.heartbeatlabs.io/topic/phone-skills) -
