The Dead Pixels Society podcast. Mastering Customer Service Excellence with Richard Blank
This podcast is for a business-to-business audience of entrepreneurs and companies in the photo/imaging retail, online, wholesale, mobile, and camera hardware/accessory industries.
Embark with us on a journey to the heart of entrepreneurship as Richard Blank shares the vibrant tale of his rise to business success in Costa Rica. From his early days as a Spanish major, Blank's path diverged from family expectations, leading him to the lush tropics where he cultivated a top-tier bilingual call center. His story is one of embracing individuality, with a healthy dose of risk-taking, as he lays bare the trials and triumphs of building a business anchored in empathy and the genuine acknowledgment of his team's dedication.
https://youtu.be/TIUS4cl829g
In our dialogue, Blank unveils the crucial role of interpersonal relationships in business development and the art of fostering a customer service ethos that prizes personalized interactions over rote transactions. His approach to leadership—judging performance over a season and embedding 30-second checkpoints in conversations—reveals a philosophy that sees beyond the numbers to the people and passion that drives enduring success.
MAY 02, 2024 RICHARD BLANK SEASON 5 EPISODE 164. Blank discusses his philosophy of workplace dynamics, emphasizing the symbiosis of discipline and understanding in nurturing a growth-centric environment. He underscores the enduring value of human engagement in an age where automation often overshadows the personal touch.

Richard’s journey
After graduating in 1991 from Abington High School in North East Philadelphia, Richard went to the University of Arizona. He majored in Spanish and Communication and focused on public speaking, non-verbal communication, and micro-expression reading. When he was 27 years old, a friend who had a call center invited him to go there to teach English, and he ended up working there for four years.
Starting a call center
In 2008, Richard decided to start a call center with his wife. They began with one seat and fifty hours. Today, fourteen years later, they are 150 strong. They are very selective and reject more accounts than they accept because Richard wants to ensure that he can fulfill his clients’ needs with the accounts that come in, and the agent will be comfortable enough to do the work.
The agents’ experience
Richard respects Costa Rican customs, culture, and native tongue. He also respects the bilingualism of his agents. He can mold brand-new agents, and with older agents, he sometimes has to get rid of bad habits. By properly preparing his agents, he feels he can put them all on a level playing field.
The culture
Sometimes, telemarketers and call center agents feel like numbers or robots, and they feel expendable. So before putting them on the phone, Richard gets to know their names and who they are. He also trains them to give them a base foundation to grow.
Quality calls
Richard likes his agents to focus on doing quality calls. About 30% of all calls come about through referrals. Much of their business happens because they do an excellent job on the first call. By working smarter rather than harder, they earn those referrals.
Growing a business by working with call centers
Growing a business has a lot to do with workforce management. Small business owners in the meetings and events industry can grow their businesses using omnichannel support and emails. By making phone calls, they also get the chance to do up-sales, get referrals, and answer questions.
Put more effort into your communication
Putting more effort into your communication, and making it warmer and more inviting, will separate you from others. If you make outbound calls, send an email, or leave a voicemail, take the time to look at the website or the CEO or business leaders’ LinkedIn profiles to get a sense of the tone or the company culture.
Answering calls
Have your best people answer calls. If there is an overflow, it is worth paying a little extra to work with a blended call center answering service so that you never have to miss that special call!
Cold calls
Doing cold calls represents half of their business. Their forte is appointment setting and lead generation, and they sometimes do surveys.
Outbound calls
Richard believes he has cracked a code for making outbound calls! The best approach for a phone call is to use anonymity (apart from mentioning the name of the company you represent) in the first three to five seconds of the call.
The Buffer Boomerang technique
If someone gives you a negative one, negative two, or a negative three-tone, reduce that tone and make it positive to reset the conversation. Then, show active listening by repeating the question. Land it back at them with a plus-two boomerang response.
Positive escalation
When your call gets transferred, it is the perfect time to give a positive verbal escalation (complimenting someone who works for you) to gain momentum and move forward.
Concluding a call
Calls consist of an introduction, a body, and a conclusion. To conclude, ask if there are any final questions, and then finish up with a military alphabet to double-check the email address of the person to whom you are talking.
Follow up
Follow up with a thank-you email that includes the name of the person who assisted you by transferring your call.
Motivation
Richard’s agents are properly prepared and well-rehearsed. He motivates his team by giving them prizes for meeting their goals. Working with good faith and good intentions also helps them weather the storms.
Reading micro-expressions on the phone
The purest form of communication is phonetics because congruence is where audio matches the visual. Phonetics can be broken down into four different sections:
Tone
Rate
Pitch
Duration
Your tone is the one consistent variable you have when you read micro-expressions. Keep it confident and empathetic.
Mirror imaging
Focus on the speed and pitch of the person you are talking to. Read them initially to see if they are going faster, slower, louder, or softer. After about five minutes, you will notice if there is a spike or dip in their speech. Tone, rate, and pitch can be manipulated. Your ultimate tell-sign is your subconscious answering speed. Then it will be the ideal time for you to ask a tie-down, a pin-down, or a clarification question.
Repetition
Richard suggests that you repeat something from time to time to make sure that the person you are talking to is following along with you. It will also give them time to digest what you have been talking about.
An exit interview
Better phone calls sometimes include an exit interview. You could get five reasons why someone chose your competition or get a suggestion to enhance your services.
OUR APPROACH
To build a successful event business, you must be an artist who can play several instruments and smile at the camera all at the same time.
The Event Business Formula™ is designed to help you clearly address 3 major success arenas:
PEOPLE
If you’re “alone at the top” putting out fires and saving the day, then it’s time to share your leadership challenges with experts and peers. The Event Business Formula will help you and your organization solve problems by ’brainstorming with other professionals who face the same challenges and collaborating one to one with top innovators and experts.
STRATEGY
You’re stellar at putting out fires and creating on the spot solutions.

It’s time to stop the insanity and develop new strategies and processes that will move you and your organization to a more fulfilling and profitable position.
TECHNOLOGY
Ever wish you had more time to think, learn and grow? Do you spend countless hours doing business – not building business?
