In-House Concierge Training Program
 

Keeping your employees happy — and your company strong.

Wouldn’t it be great if all of your employees came to work on time … every day … with a song in their hearts and an overriding desire to exceed your company’s every expectation? In a competitive job market, “work-life balance” is the buzz — and employee burnout the norm. That’s why more companies are setting themselves apart, and boosting employee retention, through a valuable workplace benefit: an in-house concierge department. Imagine how much more productive your employees would be with an errand runner to pick up their dry cleaning or prescriptions, wait on their behalf for the home repairman, and attend to a host of other necessary , but time-consuming  tasks that cut into their precious free time and work productivity.

 
Show your employees that you care.
 

Perhaps you want to create a new concierge department as an additional revenue source, or you simply wish to offer it as a benefit to your employees and clients. Whether you are a corporation, hospital, association, financial institution or real estate property, we can help.

Taught on and off site by best-selling author and international concierge training expert Katharine Giovanni, our information-packed In-House Concierge Program teaches you everything you need to know to create an in-house concierge department. Through personalized attention, we will answer all your questions, give you the tools you need to develop pricing, and help you figure out what services to offer.

"Your visit to St. John's Health System was extremely helpful in our committee's preparation for presenting a concierge program proposal to our system leadership. You provided much insight into the concierge industry and brought  great knowledge to the table regarding many nuances of developing these services. It provided us with a wonderful opportunity to learn the do's and don'ts without having to experience them firsthand.   Your experiences have shed light upon the positive impact it will have on our organization and community. The software program, TriTrax, The Concierge Manual, as well as your reminders and basic set-up guidelines are wonderful tools that will greatly assist in the success of our program. We appreciate the time, commitment and amount of information-sharing you have provided to us during this proposal process.  It was a pleasure meeting you - your visit has generated many more ideas and excitement surrounding this venture. Your passion and dedication to the concierge consulting work you do is evident through the detailed training workshop." St. John's Health System Springfield, MO

Our popular program that will take your company's customer service to the next level!  When someone thinks about a concierge, you automatically assume that they will provide you with over-the-top customer service and will treat your customers like royalty. We'll teach you how.

  • How important image is including your appearance, manners and even the way you speak.

Thanks for providing this training to our staff. It was important and vital. We thoroughly enjoyed having the opportunity to work with you. Mike Wright, Chief of Security, Reading Hospital

I just wanted to take a moment to thank both of you for a job well done. You’re not just obviously experts in your field, but you are also very warm, honest, sincere and humorous individuals that the students in the Concierge and Customer Service Training classes could all relate to, and because of that there was no hesitation on the student’s part to openly participate, which helped make these classes such a success. The training sharpened our employee’s current skills and also taught them new and improved ways of performing their jobs, which lends itself to better customer service and which ultimately will aid in distinguishing our Company from our competitors. Thanks again for everything.  Kenneth C. Stuke, PHR, Vice President of Human Resources, Cammeby’s Management Company, LLC
