The following service tip on attention is provided by Robinson & Associates, Inc., a guest service consulting firm to the gaming industry, and its Web site CasinoCustomerService.com.
Service Tip:
“Attention is something everyone wants. We all want it in different ways, but basically we want to be recognized. We want a certain level of attention. Giving the guest personal attention could mean just smiling and walking by because that’s what the guest prefers. It could mean using their name or remembering what they like to drink or how they like a sandwich. Providing that level of attention tells them you care about them and want them to come back.”
