"Make 2006 the Year of Communication" One of the biggest reasons why companies lose customers is simply because of the lack of communication. Communication can break or make a customer. It takes more time to win a new customer than to keep a current one. So make your business life easier this year, communicate to your customers and encourage repeat business. Here are some tips: 1) Call all your customers on a regular basis (start with quarterly). Whether you are selling a service or a product you will want to thank them for using your services or purchasing your products. If you are a service-oriented company ask "Are we meeting your needs?" If you are providing a product you may want to ask "Is the quality you are receiving up to your standards?". This simple tool of communication forms a partnership which can be the basis for a strong, long-lasting business relationship. 2) Do you have a new product or service that you have initiated? Tell everyone about it. Share this new knowledge. Write a press release and have it sent to the media, and to your customers. Why to your customers? Because they may know someone who needs exactly what you are offering. Your customers are your number one fans for providing you with new business. 3) Do what you say you will do. This needs no explanation. If you promise someone something, follow-up and ensure it has been done. This makes you a reliable person and a reputable company. 4) Do not forget about communicating to your employees. How about a monthly newsletter. Newsletters can be an effective tool and as small or as large as you want them to be. Include employee anniversaries and birthdays. Feature an article about someone's position and what their responsibilities may be. Often, this type of communication leads to a positive feeling and that attitude is expressed indirectly to your customers. GC Business Services LLC can help your company on any of the above tips.
