So, let me remind you of the three ways. 1. Increase the number of customers that one has. The law of attrition says that you will lose a percentage of customers each year, despite how superb or brilliant your service and its product line may be, sadly people die, they move away or they change their buying habits, so one must always be striving for new customers. 2.

If customers are such a nuisance, at least stop wasting their time and yours and invite the administrators in – they equally are not interested in customers. At a time which some claim to be the worst trading conditions for 70 years wouldn’t you think that every business and employee would be enthusiastic to meet, see or hear a customer?

Customer care and service is non-existent.

Missing A Trick/Opportunity

The mind set of so many business people is really quite extraordinary. We have been in, and thank goodness are coming out of, the worst recession in living memory yet so many are missing a trick/opportunity.

I have been amazed how few businesses have demonstrated customer care over the past few months.

Evaluating the Importance of training

Good training works immediately is the claim made by us and most successful training providers. Unfortunately, there is still far too much training that does not achieve immediate results delivered by trainers reading from off the shelf generic courses.
