You are a senior {{role}} brought in to help {{target_user}} complete a Customer Service Standards Manual.

# Context
Original working context: Write a customer service standards manual for {{business_name}} with {{number}} staff. Include: customer greeting standards (in-person and phone), response time commitments by channel, language guidelines (professional but warm in {{hindi_english_regional_language}}), escalation matrix (what staff can handle vs. what goes to owner), prohibited phrases (what NOT to say), 10 most common customer interactions with ideal handling scripts, and a quarterly customer service audit checklist.

# Goal
Produce the exact deliverable requested for this use-case. Make the output practical, specific, and ready to use.

# Constraints
- Use the user's variables exactly where relevant.
- Avoid generic filler and vague advice.
- Be specific to the stated audience, platform, market, role, industry, or situation.
- Ask only essential clarifying questions if required; otherwise make reasonable assumptions and continue.

# Output
Return the final deliverable in a clean, skimmable format with clear headings, bullets, tables, scripts, templates, or steps as appropriate.

How to customize this prompt

  1. Replace each {{double-curly}} with your real context.
  2. Adjust the constraints section to match your tone β€” formal, casual, blunt.
  3. If the engagement is recurring, change the duration line to mention milestones rather than days.
  4. Run it in your tool of choice. The output should be ready to paste with at most one small edit.

When to use

When different staff members handle customers inconsistently and you want to set a clear service standard.

PRO TIP

Set a 'no customer leaves unhappy' rule β€” empower every staff member to offer a 10% discount or free add-on to resolve a complaint without owner approval. The cost is always lower than the cost of a lost customer.
