Top Tips From The Show
- When you have a new person you can train them, but when you have a team that’s been around for a while, you need to coach them.
- When you understand our customers learning style, then we have to flip ourselves to match that.
- The consumer now is living in their own YOUniverse, therefore we are a guest in their YOUniverse, we have to respect that.
- The consumer will be happy to let us into their YOUniverse, if we deliver a Seamless, Comprehensive, Personalized Service
- With every contact we have with a prospect, aim to ensure they are ‘loved in’ not ‘locked in’.
Inspirational Quotes From The Experts
“Consumers are more willing than ever before to share their contact information with us and let us into their YOUniverse – BUT – they first need to trust us and we need to provide a seamless, comprehensive, personalized service”
“In health clubs, we often lock people into a contract, but if we are visiting a clients YOUniverse, and were respecting them, we build a trust and we provide a service to them, these people will no longer be ‘locked-in’ to our product, they will be ‘loved-in’ to our product”
