Say Rhino Customer Service — Expert Playbook

Overview and Purpose

“Say Rhino” customer service is a brand-forward support model designed to resolve rental-insurance and tenant-support inquiries quickly while reinforcing trust and clarity. The approach emphasizes three outcomes: clear communication (every interaction leaves the customer knowing the next step), fast resolution (measured in minutes or hours, not days), and defensible documentation (every commitment is logged for compliance and analytics).

This document is written from the perspective of a customer operations lead with 10+ years running high-volume, regulated support teams (SaaS and insurance-adjacent). It condenses playbook-level standards, measurable KPIs, sample scripts, escalation rules, and training requirements so you can operationalize “Say Rhino” consistently across phone, chat, and email channels.

Channels, Hours, and Contact Templates

Primary channels: phone, live chat, and email; secondary: SMS and a secure portal for document uploads. Recommended staffed hours: 8:00–20:00 local time weekdays and 10:00–18:00 on weekends to match leasing cycles. Target online self-service coverage (knowledge base + automated flows) for 24/7 low-touch resolution of common requests (policy lookups, payment receipts).

Use consistent contact formats and templates so customers never guess where to go. Example/contact placeholders (replace with your live values): phone: +1 (800) 555-0199 (example); email: [email protected] (example); web portal: https://support.examplegetrhino.com (example). Display local office address only if legal/regulatory teams approve: HQ (example) — 1234 Market St, Suite 100, San Francisco, CA 94103.

Key Operational KPIs (with Targets)

• Average Handle Time (AHT): 6–8 minutes for phone; 8–12 minutes for email cases.
• First Contact Resolution (FCR): ≥85% on first interaction for standard inquiries.
• Answer Speed: ≥80% calls answered within 30 seconds; chat response within 2 minutes.
• Email SLA: first reply within 12 hours, resolution within 48–72 hours for standard claims.
• Customer Satisfaction (CSAT): target ≥90% per interaction; Net Promoter Score (NPS): target ≥50 annually.
• Quality Assurance: maintain QA pass rate ≥92% across random monthly sampling.

These KPIs align with modern insurtech expectations and make trade-offs explicit: shorter AHT often reduces FCR, so measure both and prioritize FCR for complex, regulation-sensitive issues.

Staffing ratios: 1 full-time agent per 300–600 active customers depending on self-service maturity; budget 5–8% of gross revenue for support operations in growth-stage companies. Per-ticket cost benchmarks: chat/email $4–$12; phone $9–$25 depending on complexity and verification time.

Scripts, Templates, and Practical Phrasing

Consistent phrasing reduces escalation and improves clarity. Begin voice calls with a 7–10 second opener: identify, empathize, and state intent. Example phone opener: “Thank you for calling Rhino Support, this is Maria. May I have your full name and the rental address so I can find your policy?” Keep verification to two data points (name + rental address or last four of payment) to limit friction.

Email first-reply template (subject + 2 short paragraphs): Subject: “Re: [Case #12345] — We received your request.” Body: “Hi [Name], thanks for contacting Rhino. I’ve located your account and will review the documentation. Next steps: I will confirm eligibility within 24 hours or escalate if additional information is needed. If you have documents, please upload them here: [secure link]. — Maria, Rhino Support.” Use templated snippets to avoid free-text errors while allowing personalization tokens.

Short Chat Flow (3 turns)

1) Greeting + verification: “Hi — I’m Maria from Rhino. Can you confirm the rental address or the last four digits of the payment card?” 2) Acknowledge + action: “Thanks — I can see the policy. I will submit a document request and confirm within 30 minutes.” 3) Close: “Done — I’ve created Case #12345. If anything changes, reply here and I’ll follow up. Have a good day.”

Train agents to use “I will” and “You can expect” language rather than “I’ll try” to set clear expectations and reduce repeat contacts.

Escalation Paths, Refunds, and Resolution Timelines

Define three tiers: Tier 1 (policy lookups, basic billing) — resolve within 0–15 minutes; Tier 2 (claims assessment, dispute resolution) — owned within 24 hours and resolved within 2–7 business days; Tier 3 (legal, regulatory, or complex refunds) — acknowledge within 24 hours and resolve within 7–30 days depending on evidence. Document the rationale for each escalation to speed underwriting decisions.

Refund and chargeback guidance: process refunds within 7–14 calendar days after approval and provide a standardized notification to customers with expected receipt dates and reference numbers. For disputed charges, assemble the evidence packet (contract, payments log, timestamps) within 48–72 hours; aim for a 7-day turnaround to card networks where applicable.

Training, Tools, and Quality Assurance

Onboarding: 20 hours classroom + 40 hours supervised calls/chat (shadowing and co-browse), with certification required before independent handling. Continuous training: monthly 2-hour product updates and quarterly 8-hour refreshers on policy changes, compliance, and empathy training. Use role-play and recorded call review to maintain soft skills.

Required tooling: integrated CRM with ticket automation, call recording and AI-assisted summaries, secure document upload with audit trail, and a public knowledge base with change-log and version control. QA cadence: sample 5% of interactions weekly with automated scoring and weekly coaching sessions for agents scoring below 90%.
