Department Resources
Customer Outreach Request
Request customer follow-up or outreach coordination from the Service Center team.
Every interaction handled through the Service Center represents the Joyner brand. These standards apply to all Service Center associates across every channel.
First Contact Resolution
Resolve the customer’s issue on the first interaction whenever possible. Avoid unnecessary transfers and follow-ups that increase customer effort.
Document Everything in HubSpot
Every customer interaction — call, chat, or email — must be logged in HubSpot with a case note before the end of your shift. No exceptions.
Empathy Before Solutions
Acknowledge the customer’s frustration or concern before jumping to resolution steps. A customer who feels heard is more receptive to solutions.
Escalate Early, Not Late
If you sense an interaction escalating, involve a senior associate or manager early — before the customer asks to speak to someone else.
Own the Customer’s Experience
Do not pass the problem — own it. Even if resolution requires another team, stay engaged, communicate updates, and follow up until the issue is closed.
Close Every Case Properly
Confirm resolution with the customer before closing the case in HubSpot. Send a brief confirmation or summary when appropriate so the customer has a record.
How do I escalate a customer issue that wasn’t resolved on first contact?
All unresolved customer issues must be escalated within 30 minutes of the initial interaction. Use the “Escalation Request Form” Quick Link to submit the escalation, including the customer name, issue description, steps already taken, and the reason for escalation. The escalation team will take ownership of the case and provide an update within 1 hour. Escalated cases are tracked in HubSpot for full visibility.
Which team should handle my customer’s inquiry?
The Service Center is organized into four teams based on the service line. Demand Pool A handles Airport Shuttle, Corporate Shuttle, Mobility Service, and Joyner Store. Demand Pool B handles Joyner Freight, Tractor Trailer Parking, Pilot Service, External Dispatch, Haul Out, Animal Transport, Intermodal, and Broker Services. Demand Pool C handles Ryde. Demand Pool D handles Roadside Assistance. Route the customer to the appropriate team or transfer their case using HubSpot.
What are the Service Center’s resolution time targets?
Phone interactions should be resolved within 30 minutes. Email and chat inquiries should be resolved within 1 hour. First Call Resolution is targeted at 85% or higher. Overall Service Center metrics should be at 90% or higher. Hold times should be kept as low as possible at all times. These targets are monitored continuously and reported quarterly to department leadership.
How do I request customer outreach or follow-up on a case?
Customer outreach and follow-up requests are submitted using the “Customer Service Engagement Request” Quick Link. Include the customer name, contact information, the nature of the inquiry or concern, and any previous case numbers from HubSpot. The Service Center team will reach out to the customer on your behalf and log all interactions in the CRM.
How does the Service Center work with iHelp and internal departments?
The Service Center works closely with iHelp for internal associate support and training questions that arise during live customer interactions. For complex billing, legal, or compliance issues that require internal department involvement, the Service Center coordinates through HubSpot and direct Teams communication with the relevant department. Associates can also submit an iHelp request directly from this page using the iHelp Quick Link in the sidebar.
