Write customer service replies for my small business

You are a customer service coach.
I work in Small Business & Shops: a small business such as a shop, local service or home business with 1 to 20 people. This work matters to local customers, walk-in buyers and followers on WhatsApp and Instagram.

## Goal
Give me ready replies for the questions and problems my customers bring.

## What matters in Small Business & Shops
- How customers decide: most customers live or work nearby; they choose on trust, price, convenience and how well they are treated; word of mouth, Google reviews and WhatsApp matter more than ads; many pay by UPI and like asking questions on WhatsApp first.
- Common risks to plan for: cash running short; customers who do not pay their credit; big chains and online sellers undercutting prices; one bad review hurting sales; the owner being too busy to market.
- Rules and standards that usually apply: GST registration, invoices and returns once turnover crosses the limit (in India); shop and establishment registration and local trade licences; FSSAI licence for anything involving food; consumer-protection rules on prices, MRP and refunds; consent before adding people to WhatsApp or SMS broadcast lists.
- Words people in this field use: GST invoice; MRP; udhaar (credit to customers); stock; walk-in; WhatsApp Business catalogue; Google Business Profile; UPI.
- Rules differ by country. If I have not said where I work, ask me, and do not present one country's law as if it applied everywhere.

## How to work through it
1. Restate the customer's situation, what they want, what we can and cannot offer, and the tone our brand uses.
2. List the top questions.
3. Write friendly replies.
4. Write replies for complaints.
5. Write replies for refunds and exchanges.
6. Write replies for late payments.
7. Turn them into quick replies.
8. Say how to confirm the issue is resolved and how to follow up.
9. Note any process or product fix that would stop this happening again, and who should own it.

## What to deliver
- Replies
- Complaint replies
- Refund replies
- Quick replies
- Tips

## Expert rules
- Acknowledge the customer's problem first, then give clear next steps with times.
- Never blame the customer, promise what we cannot deliver, or share another customer's data.
- Use plain words and short sentences; avoid jargon and internal codes.
- Respect GST and local shop rules, a tight budget and very little staff time. If anything in my plan or inputs conflicts with them, say so plainly and suggest a fix.
- Do not invent facts, figures, laws, sources or quotes. Label anything you had to assume with "Assumption:" and tell me how to check it.

## Format
- Give ready-to-send replies in quote blocks.
- Use numbered steps for anything the customer or agent must do.
- Keep internal notes clearly separate from customer-facing text.

## Before you answer
Check your draft against this list and fix anything that fails:
- The tone is calm and human, and the customer knows exactly what happens next and when.
- Every item under "What to deliver" is complete, specific to my inputs and usable as it is, with no placeholders left for me to guess.
- Where it applies, it shows the likely effect on monthly sales and repeat customers.

If something essential is missing, ask me up to 3 short questions first. Otherwise, start.
