Employee buy-in can be much deeper, and more productive if management leads by example. The days of executives telling employees to do one thing, and then they do another are long gone. Managers who grab an order and row with the team become an inspiration to the entire organization. Is it time to row with the team at your company?Support the show

Do you advocate for customers? How often? To what degree? Do customers bear witness to instances where you deliver on advocating for them, or do they just hear empty words? We all have inter-company directives, goals, and objectives, but the employees don't chip in and pay invoices for the goods and services we provide to customers. So, why don't we put the customer needs above ours? Afterall, customers pay the invoices that fuel our paychecks! Sometimes priorities can be really simple!Support the show

“I'll explain our price once, but I'll never apologize for our quality.” The words of Terry McManus were defensible. So many business people operate in a “Word Salad World” where empty statements cannot be converted into provable claims. First of all, is your product or service good enough to charge a premium price? Secondly, if so, can your company prove it? Have fun defending your premium price!Support the show

Schemes and scams are a fast track to the business boneyard! Customer are way more intelligent than scammers give them credit for. Maybe it's time to do a full company-scrape for any unwanted schemes and scams being conducted by your personnel? If you are intentionally misleading customers, it's just a matter of time before it all caves in on you. Maybe today is a good time to start deploying honesty, integrity and truth-telling?Support the show

During my career I have witnessed dozens of executives avoid managing tough business situations. Why? I'm not totally certain, but most of the times it seems rooted in mistaken identity. In other words, they see their obligation to manage as an eventual path to confrontation. Not liking confrontation, the executive turns away, avoids managing altogether, and the problem festers and mushrooms. If this is your company, maybe it's time to redefine the expectations of leadership?Support the show

Proactivity is a wonderful business quality, but sometimes unique situations require reactions to solve an issue. Contingency plans can't always be planned out, but many times that can. Has your company ever examined the various contingencies that can be mapped out to help mitigate future calamities? Maybe today is a good time to start planning out contingencies? Turn the mission into a fun collaboration process. The curve balls are sure to come. Why not be ready for some of them?Support the show

“When you're wrong, admit quickly and emphatically.” Dale Carnegie's sagewisdom remains as powerful today, as when he uttered them 90 years ago.Humility is an endearing human trait that is dissolving away in modern business.How about going a little “old school” to show customers you own your mistakes?Your buyers will reward your honesty and humility. Why? Because you are notblame-shifting like other vendors!Support the show

“If you can't measure it, you can't manage it.” Harold Geneen's simple, yetpowerful words can be a bright light in a dark room. Company performance, and customer perception has to be convertible into metrics that can paint a factual picture. Without them, it's like trying to navigate a path in a dark hallway!Support the show

Imagine an Octopus with eight sucker-bearing arms, a soft body, and a strong beaklike jaw. Now transfer this image to what happens when a company lies to a customer. Each outright lie (body) ends up requiring many sub-lies (sucker-bearing arms) to support the false story (body). Here is the rub…customers detect lies more often than not. What can we do to stop this? Easy…find the crooked jaws within your company, weed them out, and then start to tell customers the truths they deserve to hear. The health of your business will get better as your company watches the Octopus swim off into the deep waters.Support the show

Features, features, features. What about the benefits? Many companies fail to explain the “WHY” when it comes to listing features. in the features. What if you were to pair every feature with a benefit. “The real benefit to you” is a phrase more customers need to hear. What's in it for the customer?Support the show

Customer transactions travel a road of various micro-experiences (transactional components) that shape buyer's opinions, perceptions, repeat and referral business. Collectively, these components are called Experience Events (EE). Are your identifying these events? Are you managing these events for customer-pleasing delivery? If not, you may unknowingly be waving goodbye to healthy repeat and referral business. Perhaps today can be the beginning of your Experience Event journey?Support the show

Samuel Langhorne Clemens (November 30, 1835 – April 21, 1910), known by the pen name Mark Twain, was an American writer, humorist, and essayist. He was praised as the "greatest humorist the United States has produced",[1] with William Faulkner calling him "the father of American literature".[2] Twain's novels include The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1876) and its sequel, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1884),[3] with the latter often called the "Great American Novel". He also wrote A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court (1889) and Pudd'nhead Wilson (1894) and cowrote The Gilded Age: A Tale of Today (1873) with Charles Dudley Warner. The novelist Ernest Hemingway claimed that "All modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain called Huckleberry Finn."[4]

I got to try the all-new CarPlay Ultra with Fabrice Esteve, Project Lead for Infotainment at Apple—and it completely changes what driving with CarPlay feels like. From the stunning full-dashboard interface to the smart integration with your car's native features, this is Apple's most ambitious in-car experience yet. In this video, I take you inside the car to show you exactly how it works, what surprised me, and what it means for the future of driving with Apple.

Customer complaints can set up course corrections for companies that are going off road! The keys to getting back on track are 1) listening to the customer (not just hearing), 2) being humble enough to accept the criticism, 3) and being smart enough to fix the problems! In many cases, the complaints have a common thread that make the course correction that much easier to recognize.Support the show

Send us a messageSeven centuries before Jesus ascended the hill on which He preached the Sermon on the Mount, the Prophet Joel described a valley which he called the Valley of Decision. Multitudes were gathered to that call.Up until today, decisions are still being made every day – some of them minor – and some of them major. But of all the decisions of life we find ourselves making – none are more important than whether one will enter the Narrow Gate that leads to Eternal Life – or the Wide Gate that leads to eternal destruction.Lord Jesus revealed these two Gates with the understanding that only one willgrant entrance to Heaven's Kingdom of Eternal Life – and that is the “NarrowGate.” But He also added that only a few will enter by it.As the Return of Jesus draws so very near, the Holy Spirit is raising up His Watchmen on the Wall with the cry of “Choose you this day who you will follow.”Only two gates are open – one to Eternal Life – and the other to eternal death.May the power of God's Grace help you to – Choose wisely!Support the showVisit our website: https://agapelightministries.com/

The appetite for “DIY” products and services has never been higher. What does your company do to cater to this modern mindset? Assuming no salesperson will aid potential customers, what information are you providing to assist informed decisions? Do you deploy tools of Silent Selling?Support the show

"The Juniper Tree" (also "The Almond Tree"; Low German: Von dem Machandelboom) is a German fairy tale published in Low German by the Brothers Grimm in Grimm's Fairy Tales in 1812 (KHM 47).[1] The story contains themes of child abuse, murder, cannibalism and biblical symbolism and is one of the Brothers Grimm's darker and more mature fairy tales.

Are you in need of some additional ‘WOW” factors in your business presentations to customers? One of the coolest ways to do this is to search your facts, features, and benefits vault for things you have never communicated to customers. Once discovered, tell and sell your customers in ways that create more compelling “AHA” moments.Support the show

Perception and facts often compete for the truth. Perhaps it is time to start examining the perceptions customer have of your business, and the services that are delivered. Often times companies lose customers just because their bad impressions became a reality that may be void of fact!Support the show

Optography is the process of viewing or retrieving an optogram, an image on the retina of the eye. A belief that the eye "recorded" the last image seen before death was widespread in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and was a frequent plot device in fiction of the time, to the extent that police photographed the victims' eyes in several real-life murder investigations, in case the theory was true. The concept has been repeatedly debunked as a forensic method.

Some research suggests the need to create 12 positive experiences in order to negate the effects of one bad experience. 12-1 odds are a mighty hill to climb. Unreturned voice mails contribute to making that hill. Are you sure you want to let voice mails go unanswered?Support the show

Flexibility. Creativity. Willingness. Finding solutions that solve unique issues. Going the extra mile. Never saying never. Do these descriptions sound like your company? If not, imagine what kind of repeat and referral business you could attract by becoming these descriptions. CANDO companies win more friends and influence more people then CAN'T DO companies.Support the show

Mirrors fill a board room during an inter-company meeting. Edicts are laid down, and attendees are told to reflect what the C-level demands. Imagine what would happen if companies abandon that reflective mindset, and exchanged it with an outward-looking mindset? If customers pay the bills, then why don't more companies look through the windows that lead to discovering what customers need and want!Support the show

To some companies, servicing really kicks into high gear after the sale. Why then? Because those companies realize that the repeat and referral pot of gold awaits them, when their paying customers feel they are being cared for after the sale. We encourage you to inject this mindset into your business models.Support the show

We have all witnessed companies that aren't flexible. They defend their legacy procedures as a badge of honor, and claim they have been doing business the same way for decades. For some companies that is their hallmark. For others, it is going to allow the competition to zoom by them. Where do you stand? Do you have some stinkin thinkin that needs to get eradicated?Support the show

Does your management style look like this: “Your hired. Come in tomorrow at 4:00, and you can start waiting on those tables of hungry people.” Why do so many brands manage this way?

This sounds like a funny question! However, the reality is sad. So many companies don't train their associates to be greeting initiators. When we bypass the chance to greet first, we are often starting the transactional experience as thought the customer is an intruder! Why would we do that? Why do so many of us do that? Imagine if your company deliberately started saying hello first?Support the show

Our surroundings are filled with observations and conversations that can reveal potential improvements for our businesses. All we have to do is look, listen, and think! Are you in?

One. Just one. Today. There is low-hanging improvement opportunity fruit all around us. We invite you to grab a pen, paper, find a quiet space, and we are confident you can find an easy, customer-pleasing improvement in 30 minutes of thought. One. Just one. Today.Support the show

Like it or not, consumers are gauging the purchasing process through the lens of experience. Every word, motion, action, or inaction, seems to be subject to an experience scorecard. If your company is not buying into this, you are most likely losing potential sales to the competition.Support the show

Be the customer from time-to-time. Thank about how your products, and services affect the buyer. As you peer through the user lens, ask yourself what you would want to know. This periodic exercise can be fun, and beneficial to your bottom line! We encourage you to embrace this mindset. Think. Fix. Deliver. Create more repeat, and referral customers.Support the show

Do you give customers detailed information? How often? Is it vital information? Are you bypassing the release of pertinent information the customer is wanting to receive? What formats do you use to communicate information. Is this information written with internal company-speak, or is it presented with simplicity, and clarity that customers can understand?Support the show

Solving customer problems requires a rolling up of the sleeves, managing the details, and finding a workable solution. This can be hard work requiring patience, diligence, and research. Is this your company? If not, should it be?Support the show

CIT units are a valuable corporate component that can offer insight to necessary changes. As many athletic coaches have said, “if we are not striving to always get better, we are getting worse.” Why? Because competitors who use CIT units will surpass stagnant mindsets. Complacency breeds mediocrity.Support the show

Most customers like it when vendors display good listening skills. Vendors have heard plenty of customer feedback, and many times the feedback is very similar. As a result, the vendors start to finish the customer sentences in hopes of speeding things up. If this is you, maybe it's time to slow the train down, and let the customer finish?Support the show

Very few customers admire vendors that talk over them. Humans have two ears to listen, and only one mouth to speak. If over-talking is overtaking your customer interactions, then maybe it's time to let listening overtake talking?Support the show
