You know that a one off training hit won’t have a long term effect on your team

Are you nodding? Then read on …

Mark Copeman created Helpdesk Habits to improve customer service
in the IT industry

Mark is on a mission to certify 10,000 technicians and he’s well on the way.

Helpdesk / service desk technicians and engineers are highly skilled in IT. Why? Because they’ve been trained and have practiced their art.

These same people are typically less skilled at dealing with customers and developing relationships. Why? Because they’ve likely never been trained or practiced that art – they’ve never been shown the way.

The Helpdesk Habits program shows the way and puts a focus on that underrated, yet incredibly important ‘EQ’.

“I’m only on Module 1 of Helpdesk Habits and I love this dude. Great points – just in the intro” – CFO, Smart Dolphins (MSP)

“We have a new hire starting the week after and this will be his first task.

For a long time I’ve tried to articulate how I want the helpdesk to run and I just couldn’t explain it.

The book and course are exactly what I was looking for. Thanks again!”

William Thackray – Ops Director
