Add Escalation Branching Paths to a Complaint Script
Use this as a follow-up prompt after generating the base complaint script. It adds branching paths so staff have specific language ready when a call escalates beyond the cooperative-customer scenario.
The Prompt
Now write two variations of the middle section: one for a customer who is upset but willing to work with us, and one for a customer who becomes abusive or starts threatening to leave a review. For the second path, include clear language for how to transfer the call to a manager without the customer feeling dismissed.
