## Summary
Handle customer complaints empathetically, build FAQ-grounded replies, create standardized service templates, and design phone scripts
## Content
> **Attribution:** Inspired by Google Workspace with Gemini Prompting Guide 101 (2025). Transformed and expanded by 6DuckLearn.

## Overview
For customer service reps and managers. Draft empathetic responses, build reusable templates, and standardize your team''s communication voice — all from Docs and Gmail.

## Prompt Templates

### Empathetic response to a damaged goods complaint
```
Help me craft an empathetic email response. A customer ordered headphones that arrived damaged. They''ve contacted us with photos and want expedited shipping that isn''t standard with their order. Include a paragraph acknowledging their frustration and three bullet points with potential resolutions. (Gemini in Docs)
```

### Brainstorm alternative resolutions
```
Suggest 10 alternative options in place of expedited shipping to resolve the customer''s frustration about receiving a damaged package. (Gemini in Docs)
```

### FAQ-grounded reply in Gmail
```
Generate a response to the customer question about our [return policy] and [product certifications] based on @[Customer FAQ Document]. Use a helpful and professional tone. (Gemini in Gmail)
```

### Build three communication templates at once
```
Draft templates for three types of customer communication: apology emails, order confirmation messages, and thank-you notes for loyal customers. Keep each to one paragraph. (Gemini in Docs)
```

### Standardized phone call scripts
```
I am a [customer service manager]. Create standardized language for phone calls — templates for common call openings, greetings, and closures for a retail store. Allow personalization with customer details while ensuring consistency and professionalism. (Gemini app)
```

### Communication best practices guide for new hires
```
Craft a list of customer communication best practices to train new team members. Outline three sections: handling happy, neutral, and dissatisfied customer inquiries. (Gemini in Docs)
```

## Pro Tip
Build a "Customer Communications" Gem trained on your brand guidelines and scenario templates (apology, confirmation, thank you) to ensure consistent, on-brand output across your whole team.
