Creating a well-structured process map helps teams handle complaints consistently and efficiently, turning frustrated customers into loyal advocates. Before jumping into process mapping, though, it's essential to gather the right information about team structure, existing tools, and specific business needs - which is exactly what this carefully crafted prompt helps you do.

2. Are there any existing tools or software currently used for complaint management?
3. What is the average volume of customer complaints received daily, weekly, or monthly?
4. Are there specific industries or types of complaints your business deals with most frequently?
5. What are the key performance indicators (KPIs) or metrics you use to measure complaint resolution success?
6. Are there any regulatory or compliance requirements that need to be considered in the process?

8. Should the process include escalation paths for unresolved or complex complaints?
9. Are there any specific pain points or inefficiencies in your current complaint-handling process?
10. What level of detail do you need for roles and responsibilities at each stage of the process?
