Helping Increase Sales Through Turning Customers Into Superfans Reducing Risks.

New Arrival

Created 4 years ago in Business / Getting Started

I am a practised, dynamic, inventive and resourceful leader of change. Having run numerous projects and programmes, I strive for continuous improvement in my own work and in service delivery and regularly identify and develop opportunities.

One of my particular strengths is that I am not hung up on sales speak, the way you have always done it, based on what you think customers want and how they work or what analysts think. I tell you straight what customers want. Some of the things I can help you with, how to:

• keep customers happy
• treat your customers as individuals
• manage expectations
• exceed expectations
• deal with difficult customers
• turn customers into superfans who rave about you and drive more custom to you

Everyone knows that it costs at least 5 times as much to gain a new customer than retain a new one. This increases still further if you provide poor customer service or don’t handle a complaint appropriately.

I will be able show you what customers get frustrated with, how to avoid these mistakes and exceed expectations, so as to increase loyalty, improve reviews, referrals and consequently sales.
