Maybe a controversial one, but we don't believe that test drives work.  Demonstration Drives work - you demonstrate the right feature, to the right customer at the right time. Think about it, no one enjoys a test. The customer doesn't want to feel like they are on their driving test. We discuss how to optimise you demonstration drives, how to make the customer feel comfortable and when to stop talking. Here are the highlights: {01:41} Right Feature, Right Customer, Right Time {02:50} Can you sell a car without it? {07:04} Who should drive first? {08:36} Demonstrate features {09:14} Car, people, car, people {17:33} Stop talking About Symco Training: Symco Training was founded in 2000 by Simon Bowkett and it was his belief that the business had to offer its clients something different. That difference was clear to Simon from his days in the dealership when he experienced many sales trainers who had all the answers, but were unable, unwilling or both to actually show the delegate how they could be implemented. It remains the ethos of the business today. You see, Symco only employ trainers that are committed to delivering not only inspiring and insightful training, but are equally as happy to demonstrate these skills and techniques with real customers in your own showroom. We believe in order for sales training to be effective and in Simon's words ‘real world', it needs to be tried and tested in the only place it matters the showroom floor. There is no room for theory when your goals are for your team to sell more cars, hours or parts and retain more profit. In dealerships around the world the focus applied by many of the sales executives is to try and sell a deal. Symco specialise in getting your teams to focus on selling themselves, the product and then supporting this with the deal. To find out more visit: www.symcotraining.co.uk

With host retail coach Wendy Batten   https://wendybatten.com/podcast-intro/   In This Episode:    Don't skip this because you're not a “touristy” shop.    Many of you will want to skip this episode because you may think souvenirs would not fit in with your shop's brand but I'm challenging that perspective in Episode 202 of the Creative Shop Talk Podcast. Your retail shop may not be in a traditional “tourist town,” or maybe it is and you just leave that to the regular tourist shops, but not carrying locally branded merchandise could be a HUGE missed opportunity.    In this episode, I'll share some “souvenir” ideas that you may want to incorporate into your product line. Local merchandise and souvenirs don't have to be mass produced (even though there is also a market for that too!) Even if you aren't in a tourist town, many of your customers are likely proud of their hometown or have friends and family whom they buy for who have moved away and are missing home.    Consider what local businesses you can collaborate with to add some locally branded merchandise to your product line.    I'm hoping this episode helped change your perspective on adding souvenirs. Let us know if you decide to bring some products in and tag me in IG with your photos.    Need more? Join me and our supportive community of retailers in my Retailer's Inner Circle!

In this episode i'm going to help you with Finding the right customers for your woodworking business requires a strategic and thoughtful approach. Identifying your ideal customer, tailoring your marketing efforts, qualifying leads, collecting feedback, and collaborating with industry peers are all crucial steps to success. Steve Larosiliere's insights provide a roadmap for your woodworking business's growth and prosperity. By following these steps, you'll be on your way to attracting and serving the right clientele, ensuring the long-term success of your business. It's time to hear the complete story now! “Define your ideal customer. So what you want to do is, before you find the right customer, you need to know who they are. And you want to start by creating an ideal customer profile. This is a detailed description of the right type of customer who are the best fit for your business? And so some of the things you want to think about our demographics like what are the age, whether to gender, income level, occupation or types of occupation?”  -Steve Larosiliere Tailor Your Marketing and Outreach Once you've created your Ideal Customer Profile, tailor your marketing and outreach efforts to cater specifically to this audience. Here's how: Content Marketing: Develop content, such as articles, videos, and posts, that directly addresses the needs and interests of your ideal customers. For instance, if your target audience consists of homeowners looking to renovate kitchens, create content about kitchen design and the benefits of custom cabinetry. Social Media Targeting and Paid Advertising: Utilize platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and Google PPC to target your ideal customers based on their demographics and interests. Leverage localized Search Engine Optimization to attract local customers. Attend Local Events and Network: Engage with your community by attending local events, joining business associations, and building relationships with potential customers and businesses that can refer customers to you. This hands-on approach can be highly effective. “Facebook and Instagram make it so easy to target these people geographically by age by what their lifestyle is, whether they have family, that sort of stuff, we can probably do another training on that localized Search Engine Optimization” -Steve Larosiliere Contact him through: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thelarosiliere/?hl=en Woodpreneurlife Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/woodpreneurlife/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stevelarosiliere/ Acres of Timber Website: https://www.acresoftimber.com/ Stoked Website: https://www.stoked.org/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/SteveLarosiliere Woodpreneurlife YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@woodpreneurlife4211 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stevelarosiliere1/ Woodpreneurlife Website: https://www.woodpreneurlife.com/

Get social on social media: In addition to nurturing the clients you already have who follow you on social media, take a few minutes every day to comment, share, like, etc. on the posts of other businesses/groups where your ideal customers are hanging out. Check out who is watching your stories and who is following you and reach out to thank them or like some of their posts. 2. Get involved in your community: Getting involved can mean joining the Chamber of Commerce, shopping around and supporting the other local businesses, joining a club or group, etc.  3. Host a community event or service: Host an event that doesn't have anything to do with your shop but supports your community. Examples from my clients are pet adoptions, paper shredding events, flea markets, book clubs, outside group meetings, etc. 4. Set up collaborations: Think about your customers and what collaborations you can offer them to make their lives easier. What goods or services are complimentary to your products? Collaborate with other local businesses to offer workshops/events/products that your customers will love. “[A mindset of] Collaboration over competition can work miracles for you.” 5. Introduce yourself to people in your community: Retailers need to get out. Drop by some businesses in your community and introduce yourself without expectations. If it's doable, offer a gift certificate or small gift as well. Having people know and recognize you and your business is incredibly valuable.

 With host retail coach Wendy Batten   https://wendybatten.com/podcast/   Before we get started today, I wanted you to know that I am offering a FREE private coaching call for everyone who joins the Retailer's Inner Circle during the month of September! It's a GREAT time to join - we've added the revamped Holiday Bootcamp to our long list of masterclasses. Join us on the inside and work through it with us! Remember: You don't have to do this alone. Today on the Creative Shop Talk Podcast, we are talking about the people we want in our shops: our ideal customers. Where do we find them? How do we attract them? Let's dive in! You'll need to first identify who your ideal customer is. In identifying that person, remember that great brands are not for everyone. It is okay to repel some people while you work on attracting your ideal customer. Here are some questions you can ask yourself to help with this process: -How is your retail shop different from the other shop down the street? -Who are you currently serving versus who do you WANT to be serving? -What are 3-5 words that describe how you want your ideal customer to FEEL when they are in your shop? -Think of everything about your brand from your customers' point of view. What are the words your customers use to describe you? What do your customers WANT to buy in your shop? -Are your customers value-driven? Connection-driven? Pride-driven? Something else? -Where are your retail customers hanging out? What other shops/restaurants in your town are your ideal customers frequenting? Where else do they shop? Throughout the episode I'll give you some real examples of my clients who adjusted their offerings based on their customers' needs/wants with great success. In order to find your people, you need to understand them. In order to attract them to your shop, you need to make sure that every piece of your brand is speaking to your ideal customer.   Related podcasts we think you'll like:     Episode 144: How to Create a Customer Journey Map Episode 126: 10 Simple Ways to Level Up Your Shop Episode 55: Unscalable Conversations: A Free, Simple & Powerful Marketing Tool to Use   About your host, Wendy Batten In case we haven't met yet, I'm Wendy, a small business coach and founder of the Retailer's Inner Circle, where I help other independent shop owners learn how to gain the right business skillsets to see more profits, paychecks, and joy as they navigate running their retail business.  Through online classes, business coaching programs, speaking, and a top-ranked podcast, I've helped hundreds of retailers around the globe reclaim their dream and see the success they want from their beautiful shops.

This podcast interview focuses on exploring the biggest business lessons learned after our last podcast interview 5 years ago. My guest is Ryan Falkenberg, Co-founder and Co-CEO of CLEVVA. Ryan has always been fascinated by what makes people tick and what makes them perform optimally. He's been frustrated at the slow pace of change when it comes to education and learning. To address that, he created a learning consultancy, Hi-Performance Learning, that aimed to push the boundaries of organizational learning through e-learning, gamification, and expert systems. To then remove the constraints by tech. bandwidth, he founded CUDA Technologies. Yet no matter how they optimized formal learning, a core problem remained. People still had to memorize and repeat complex decision formulas in a world that was accelerating. It was time for a complete rethink. This was the starting point for CLEVVA back in June 2011. In the meantime, CLEVVA has been in business for well over 12 years, and five years have passed since Ryan was on my podcast last. This interview inspired me in many ways, and parts of it ended up in chapter 1 of my book, "The Remarkable Effect." Since so many things happened since I decided to invite Ryan back on my podcast. We explore the big lessons Ryan learned over the last five years. He shares a story about what made him realize they competed for the wrong business in the wrong market. He then explains what he changed from a mindset perspective and how that helped them get remarkable traction in a completely new category - thereby attracting the right customers and the right partners. Last but not least, he shares his experiences in how to create funding freedom for the business - and how that liberates them to do the right thing. Here's one of his quotes We took ownership of the outcome. So we didn't put on a lens of a Software as a Service company. We put on the lens as a solution as a service company. So we actually then got teams to be able to specialize in these conversations. And so that we could not just say to our customer, here's the software, I'll teach you how to build that conversation; we said we will deliver a virtual agent having those conversations, and it will be up and running in four weeks. And we will take ownership of that and be accountable for the performance. And so what changed as well is, is our customers didn't feel we were having to convince them on our software. What we were showcasing is we actually were selling an outcome, a measurable outcome that would have conversations that mattered.  During this interview, you will learn four things: That even if you add significant value, it doesn't mean it will help you scale  The importance of clarifying what business you're really in (and how that changes everything) How changing one small thing can move you from nice to have to ultra-sticky and mission-critical When you know the moment is right to build an ecosystem For more information about the guest from this week: Ryan Falkenberg Website CLEVVA Subscribe to the Daily SaaS Reflection Get my free, 1 min daily reflection on shaping a B2B SaaS business no one can ignore.

How do you define customer centricity? What it is not? How does it challenge the traditional view as irresponsible, ineffective and misaligned with best practice?

Please share a case study showcasing the impact of CLV on business performance and decision-making.?

https://DarkHorseSchooling.com Tracy Brinkman is the host of the Dark Horse Entrepreneur podcast, which is designed to help entrepreneurs, coaches, and course creators who feel overwhelmed and uncertain about their business or technology skills in the online space. In this episode, Tracy talks about the importance of storytelling and how it can be used to build an empire. Storytelling, Tracy argues, is a great tool for entrepreneurs to reach their audience, build their brand, and create an unforgettable experience for their customers. By sharing their own stories and experiences, entrepreneurs can create a powerful connection with the people they are trying to reach, helping them to stand out from the competition. Storytelling can also help to inspire others, giving them the courage to take action and pursue their dreams. Tracy encourages entrepreneurs to use storytelling to connect with their audience and create an unforgettable experience.   Tracy is advocating for the importance of storytelling, and is hosting a free summit on the topic. However, he believes that the same storytelling strategies that gurus use to gain followers can actually be detrimental to businesses. He gives an example of a story that is often used, where someone goes from being in debt to becoming successful. He argues that this type of story does not actually help customers because it does not provide actionable advice. Instead, he encourages businesses to focus on providing useful tips and strategies that can help customers. Tracy Brinkmann discusses how rags to riches stories work, and how they may not be the best option for attracting high-ticket customers. He advises using discounts, time-sensitive offers, and stories that illustrate how easy and fast a product will work to attract lower end customers. He suggests dampening the rags to riches stories in order to attract more high-end customers, and to use content that demonstrates results. He suggests doing an A/B test to compare the results of a rags to riches story with more powerful stories such as Here's how we increased our conversions by 93% in 8 weeks. Tracy shares the importance of using winning stories and messages when trying to increase conversions. Tracy gave examples of stories that could be used to better engage customers, such as earning free publicity and gaining subscribers, customers, and sales in a short period of time. He also suggested telling a story of building a business from $0 to generating revenue in 14 months. He also noted that it's important to make sure that any stories used are ones that have actually been experienced by the speaker. He made the example of a rags-to-riches story to a more effective one of living in a 1971 Vega car to a 442-room mansion in only four hours of work per week.   TIMESTAMPS  0:00:00   "Unlock Your Potential with Storytelling: How to Level Up Your Business with Dark Horse Entrepreneur" 0:02:32   "The Dangers of Storytelling in Business: How It Could Be Ruining Your Profits" 0:04:02   "The Power of Storytelling: How to Attract the Right Customers for Your Business" 0:09:36   "How to Increase Conversions with Winning Messages and Stories" 0:11:37   Heading: "Authenticity is Key: Proving Your Value to Your Customers"   HIGHLIGHTS  But keep in mind, you're going to have to continually focus on volume, volume, volume finding more and more and more of these customers to bring through your sales funnel to take them through your ascension letter.   Now, when you want to attract customers on the lower end of this financial spectrum, it's great to use things like discounts, time sensitive offers and the sort of stories that illustrate how easy and how fast your product will work.   I've been there, right? And simply maybe they're not as knowledgeable about the world of business and the world of marketing. Now, these folks, they'll easily spend $17, $47 on a product, but they will likely never shell out hundreds or preferably thousands for training, no matter how good the promise, know how great the product is, or know how bad they need the result that they could get on the other side of it.   Your messaging, your story is going to determine what kind of client demographics you attract. Using a rag to riches story tends to attract the people on the lower end of the financial spectrum.   I just start leveling up with some great marketing, personal, or business tips and results, man, we got to get those results in order to build that beautiful business of yours into the empire it absolutely deserves to be.

Nathan Harding is the founder of Yo Media, a digital marketing agency operating across Australia. Yo Media was founded after Nathan had spent a lot of time building his skills in Wesfarmers. Nathan then took the big leap and bought his own business, a newspaper, that had a significant revenue base. Unfortunately, Nathan bought this newspaper as advertising and information consumption was moving from print to electronic. While running his newspaper Nathan honed his skills in selling and marketing and what it means to hustle as he was sometimes making 50-100 cold calls to generate advertising revenues from his car! Having the skill for marketing and technology, Nathan was asked to improve the on line advertising for a small business. What he did worked and then more people kept asking him to improve their business, and from here Yo Media was born.

The Customer-Base Audit: The First Step on the Journey to Customer Centricity by Peter Fader, Bruce Hardie and Michael Ross About the Book: As a leader in your organization, you will be very familiar with your organization's key financial statements and monthly management reports. You may have spent countless hours discussing budgets and expenditures. But how much time have you spent reflecting on the fact that these revenues are generated by actual customers―the people who pull out their wallets and pay for your products and services? In The Customer-Base Audit: The First Step on the Journey to Customer Centricity, experts Peter Fader, Bruce Hardie, and Michael Ross start you on the path toward really getting to understand your customers' buying behavior as well as the health of your overall customer base. A customer-base audit is a systematic review of the buying behavior of a firm's customers using data captured by its transaction systems. It will help you answer questions such as: How healthy is your customer base? How realistic are your growth objectives? How do your customers differ in terms of their behavior and value? How has the quality of your customers changed over time? What changes in customer behavior lie behind period-to-period changes in firm performance? What is important to your high-value customers? Which products help you acquire and retain your best customers? Fader, Hardie, and Ross present five “lenses” through which an executive can address questions like those above. The answers are often lurking in various parts of the organization, but it is rare to find all the relevant analyses in one place, let alone performed on a regular basis (as an audit should be). Yet without such a basic, systematic understanding of the foundations of the firm's primary source of cash flow, how can executives make informed decisions? Fader, a Wharton professor, is the author of Customer Centricity and coauthor of The Customer Centricity Playbook, both of which have helped businesses radically rethink how they relate to customers. In this first step of the journey, Fader, Hardie, and Ross assist leaders in gaining a fundamental understanding of their customers' buying behavior―and thus their company as a whole. About the Author: Peter S. Fader is the Frances and Pei-Yuan Chia Professor of Marketing at The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. His expertise centers around the analysis of behavioral data to understand and forecast customer shopping/purchasing activities. He works with firms from a wide range of industries, such as telecommunications, financial services, gaming/entertainment, retail, and pharmaceuticals. In addition to his various roles and responsibilities at Wharton, Professor Fader is also co-founder of Zodiac, a predictive analytics firm that was sold to Nike in 2018. He then co-founded (and continues to run) Theta to commercialize his more recent work on “customer-based corporate valuation.” Peter is the author of Customer Centricity: Focus on the Right Customers for Strategic Advantage and co-author with Sarah Toms of the book The Customer Centricity Playbook (which was featured on episode 222 of The Marketing Book Podcast in 2019). He has been quoted or featured in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Economist, The Washington Post, and on NPR, among other media. And, interesting fact – he was a math major at MIT!

We, as marketers, all understand how important it is to get to know our customers. But what discipline are we bringing to that process? Do we understand the many levels of empathy we need to have for them, and how to translate those insights into the customer experience and product or service?Today, Emily Vernon, shares so much wisdom about how to look at our customers' experience. We talk about the cumulative experience and how brands can shift from being reactive to cultural moments to being more proactive. Emily shares the three altitudes of empathy - the layers at which we need to understand our customers in order to create an engaging experience. We discuss how brand experience is shifting from user-centricity to human centricity, and requires leaders to address more complex, emotional needs (yes, even in B2B!). We chat about how empathy should be viewed as a skill, not a trait.  She also shares 5 empathy exercise types so you avoid seeing customer insight gathering as one-dimensional and discover which ones your brand is doing well, versus what you may be missing to get a fuller picture.  Today's episode may change the way you gather customer insights from now on! Key Takeaways:You have to understand your customers as people, not as a broad, generic demographic. In order to connect with the right people, some people won't like you. B2B has evolved over the last 20 years, but it is important to remember that you're selling to humans, who justify emotions with logic, but are still buying with emotion. There is more than one way to look at empathy exercises. It is important to look at empathy from all angles, gather and analyze that information, and then implement with your team and see what sticks. "We bring meaning in terms of how we live, we bring meaning in terms of how we do our job. There's much more of a movement in B2B to start to look at things emotionally." —  Emily Vernon About Emily Vernon, Customer Experience Consultant an, B2B Experience Lead:Emily consults Reckitt around the end-to-end experience for B2B hygiene solutions.
