Should Listen carefully and give a gesture to customer that we do care if He/She is facing problem. Try to solve the issue which made the customer annoyed within the company policies.
Customer Representative should be Calm and body language is " I'm here to help you Sir ".
active listening, can do attitude and willingness to help are very important to help them deal with difficult customers. in addition to doing the extra mile.
I don't like to say difficult let's say'' special'' customer.
First the ability to put yourself in the customer shoe in a way making the customer feel that you understood and acknowledge his issue and his point of view. The customer will calm down.
Second, educate the customer about your point of view representing the company.
Third give options so you throw the ball to the customer to choose, angry customers look for options and alternatives.
Don't say sorry or apology more than one time, this will put you in a weak position, giving more points to the customer to attack, I understand your frustration and i am sorry how you felt would be a professional and better sentence to use.
The above is only few ideas , but at the end front liners or whoever is in direct contact with customers should have a strong personality along good communication skills and subjectivity.
