We all look on with a degree of envy at that select group of people who we consider have made it in the world, building a successful business, the big home, the sports car and expensive life style, you all know what I mean. How is it that the law of attraction has manifested this wealth for them and not for us? I mean to say we went to the same school, had the same marks and we got into the same college and university? We even went into business at the same time.nnThe one secret that has never changed and never will is nn“Talking to Your Customers”nnTo build a successful business, I hope you are talking to your customers – “often”. If you don’t, how can you possibly meet their needs? How can you sell them products or services that they really want? If you’re not meeting client needs, how can the manifestations of wealth you seek for your business come true. Your success is built on the success of others who need your products or services.nnThis critical advice for owners of small companies can never be understated. The quickest way out of business is to forget this principal. Talking to your customers allows you to build a successful business on the universal energy that you both share from this interaction. Know your customers needs, manifest in your own mind the steps to success that they need to achieve, to bring the rewards to you that build your success. Be grateful as you proceed through each stage as a supplier, what ever the level. Be there for your client and they will be there with you. As they build their business yours will be pulled along with it. You may even want to think about joint venture if you can see a blockage in growth that can be beaten working together.nnRemember success builds on success. This is the key in building a successful business. Clients remain loyal only on good service or there being no other supplier. Change these variables and see how long it is before you are out of business.nnNot Talking To Your Customers?nnIf you aren’t talking to your customers, you have probably fallen into negative patterns. Lets look at some of the more common mistakes made repeatedly by small business.nnLosing attitude #1 - You are so pressured to get short-term results in your new business that you forget about long-term strategies. There are times during the startup phase when you need to generate profits quickly. But at some point - the earlier the better - you have to get to know your customers so you can market to them strategically. If you don’t, any success you achieve will be short-lived.nnLosing attitude #2 - You think that you already know your customers so well that there is no need to communicate with them. An even more damaging version of that attitude is, “My customers are just like me and they think the same way that I do. We’re on the same wavelength.” You are living in fantasyland. To build a successful business you need to understand; your competitor is just around the corner waiting to pounce. Relationships grow off understanding; close contact lets you know any changing needs or pressures on the clients business. Good relationships will give you advanced warning of competitor’s approaches and allow you to counter with supported serve levels.nnLosing attitude #3 - You welcome good news from your customers, but shut off the bad. It is great to hear from customers who love you. But are you also eager to talk to them when they call to complain? Remember that complaints are much more valuable than praise. They point up areas where you can increase your profits by improvement this helps you build a successful business.nnLosing attitude #4 - You have blind faith in your product or service. It is so great that it will succeed with no effort from you! That line of thinking also causes you to ignore your competitors. And remember that the more successful you are, the more aggressively your competitors are gunning for you. Relationships not just product or supplying a service, is the key to success. It is an established fact that a good relationship can allow as much as a 7% increase in the purchase costs of sales a client makes.nnLosing attitude #5 - You think that you don’t need to understand and target specific consumer groups. All people are really just the same, right? No, wrong! Your profits are maximized only when you understand just who your customers are, so you can market to them strategically.nnSo the bottom line is:n nTo build a successful business you need to; Talk to your customers often and efficiently. Visit them to see how they are using what you have to sell. Survey them. Hold focus groups to pinpoint what they like and dislike about your company’s products, services, people and everything else. When customers call to complain, capture what they have to say. And share it with everyone in your organization.nnUse the Law of Attraction to build a successful business. Manifest in your mind that which you want. Act as if you have it, and before you know it, it will be yours. Never waste your time dreaming about what other have, what you don’t have. You bring to yourself only what your really believe in. Negative thoughts are the key driver to negative events. If you are negative the gains you seek will remain unfulfilled and the concerns you had, will become reality. nnDevelop winning attitudes, Give gratitude for what you have. Trust the Law of Attraction, the universal laws of provision. Manifest that which you seek. Hold your belief in the manifestation. Think of it as a reality, live the dream where possible and you will see the results. Other will look at you and ask how he achieved it, ask why it happened to him and not me.n nUltimately, the success of your business and your marketing can only succeed if you listen to your clients. Ultimately the future you seek to MANIFEST will only happen if you follow The Law of Attraction Principals.nnBE GRATEFULL FOR WHAT YOU RECEIVE.nGIVE BACK AND YOUR BOUNTY HAS NO LIMITS
