An irate and unhappy customer can be a headache for the employee dealing with them, but, if you use the correct tact, it can become a win-win situation. A few rules of conduct and you should both walk away happy.First, always remain calm. Don’t jump to the defensive. If you are relaxed, it will help your customer better keep their composure. Don’t argue with the customer and don’t place blame on them. This will only lead to a vicious circle of words and accomplish nothing. Be professional.Show the customer respect. Listen to their words, not their tone. Their words will tell you what the problem is. Don’t interrupt them. Let them say everything they have to say. Show empathy for their problem.

I wanted to set about teaching you in this article the secrets to customising your Microsoft PowerPoint presentations and how to change those common Microsoft Powerpoint Templates. See whether you realise it or not, all of the powerpoint template presentations that Microsoft provides are in fact customisable. In fact, most of the presentation templates you find in Microsoft Powerpoint 2000, XP or 2003 are simply built on individual drawing objects or shapes that can be found on the Drawing toolbar under the AutoShapes menu.
Lets look at how you customise Microsoft supplied templates …
First off we have to create a new presentation, which I strongly encourage you to do at this stage by opening Microsoft Powerpoint and using the shortcut keystroke, [Ctrl] + [N]. Next we want to apply one of those common Microsoft templates, seeing I am working in Microsoft Powerpoint 2003 as I am writing this article, I am going to describe changing the Digital Dots template. So you need to apply this template by choosing the Format menu and then choosing Slide Design from the drop down menu. On the right hand side of the screen the Task pane open. Move your mouse pointer over each of the slide designs till you see the one called Digital Dots and click on it once. You should notice this design now applied to your slide.
When you first see this template, you may probably think it looks pretty complex, something too difficult to modify. Well do not be fooled. This template is simply made up of a series of lines and circles from your Drawing toolbar. Not a single thing more. I know when I am running my instructor led courses, many of my students say to me "It’s a picture and way too difficult to modify". Ahh, but its not, it is simply a series of drawing objects that are skillfully coloured to look like a picture.

In a previous installment of medical billing software, we covered the many nightmares that a programmer has to go through to get that medical billing software on the market. In this article, we're going to reveal what the poor QA tester has to go through when getting the module fixes from the programmer. In the world of major headaches, this ranks up there with the worst of them.The QA tester basically takes what the programmer does and makes sure it works the way it is supposed to work. But that's not where it ends. The QA tester, in smaller companies, also has to write up the documentation to show the end user how the software is supposed to be used. Sometimes just one wrong instruction can mean the difference betwe

Now is your chance. While the marketing and public relations experts are off enjoying their hard-earned vacations, the media are left scrambling for much needed copy. Plan ahead, and give them what they're looking for!In June, July and August reporters are more accessible and open to creative, fun press releases related to entertainment, lighter business stories, trend pieces, technology news, travel features, and back-to-school and education themes. In September, the marketing, PR and agency reps will be back at it, so make hay while the pros are away!One publicity strategy is to tie into current events. Think about the upcoming Tour de France. Now that Lance Armstrong has stepped away from the competition, cyclist

That’s right, I said it. Schmoozing is for suckers. And I’ve finally grown tired of people using the word as a synonym for conversation, networking, mingling, small talk and chatter.So I decided to look up the word schmoozing in the dictionary for the first time. And I found three VERY interesting facts that you might like to know:1) It’s defined as, “To converse casually, especially in order to gain an advantage.”2) It derives from the Yiddish term shmuesn, or “rumor.”3) Synonyms include: gossip, bad-mouth, blather and tattle-tale.I don’t know about you, but that’s NOT the way I communicate. Nor is it the way I’d want people describing the way I communicate.I also Googl

Very good question, the secret to modifying these templates, is to modify the master slide. The master slide controls the look and feel of your presentation so to do that you must first activate the master slide. To do this simply goto the View menu, choose Master from the drop down menu and then choose Slide Master. In the left hand pane you should see two pictures towards the top of your screen just before the toolbars. These two pictures represent your Title Slide Master and the Slide Master used by the main body of your presentation. The Title Slide Master should be open in front of you and this is the one we will modify. Keep in mind that the rules we do for the Title Slide Master also apply to the other slide masters in your presentation.
What you need to do is to modify the drawing objects in this slide so just click on one of the buttons in the slide that is away from the placeholders. What you should notice is that a square object select marker appears. This tells you that all of the elements you see are a group. So to ungroup these objects, right mouse click and from the shortcut menu choose Grouping and then Ungroup.
You will then see all the individual objects selected in the slide. Simply click away from the select objects and then click on any one object, actually lets change one of the buttons. Once you have selected the button, right mouse click and choose Format Autoshape. You should notice that the Format Autoshape dialog box is similar to the Autoshape dialog box you use for standard drawing object.
Let us change the colour of the object to green by choosing green from the Fill Colour drop down box. To complete your change simply choose the OK button. Now what you should notice is that you have one green button. You could now go through and change every single button and customise the slide master to look the way you require.
You can even go through and customise the background of the Slide master by going to the Format menu and choosing Background from the drop-down menu. When you change the background on the Title Slide Master and the Slide Master, it will be reflected in all the slides in your presentation.
Just a short side bar …
If you want to copy the formatting from one object to another, the simplest way is to first choose the object you want to copy the formatting from. Go upto the Standard toolbar and double click on the Format Painter button and then click on each of the objects you want to copy this formatting to. This tool is really useful especially in thi
