Converting your customers into your sales force

We are all familiar with the idea of keeping customers happy and managing relationships for long term profitability. However, many business owners struggle with the concept of utilising existing customers to bring in more referrals for your business. When you are thinking of customer service, it is not good enough in the modern business world to achieve the bare minimum. Instead, businesses should aim to exceed their customers’ expectations and leave a lasting impression.

With that said, how do you achieve this? How can businesses convert their existing customers into their most trusted sales people? Let’s find out…

Customer retention is a concept that the majority of business owners have heard and to some degree understand. However, what is less clear is what actually generates repeat sales. It all starts with the business being knowledgeable about their customers. As a modern day business owner, it is imperative that you understand what your customers are doing. Knowing when they last purchased from you, when their contract is up for renewal or even who your highest value customers are will aid your retention success.

The more customers a business acquires, the more information you need to record, track and analyse to ensure long term customer success. As discussed in previous blog posts, CRM systems such as Capsule are vital in building up a successful business. Having all information in a central location with easily accessible reports will allow you to identify where there are more opportunities.

Exceeding customer expectations is a key way of differentiating your business from the competition. It helps to enhance your reputation and revenue, allowing you to focus your sales activities. Satisfied customers are much more likely to influence others to buy from you based on their own positive experiences. In effect, they become the front line of your sales force all on the basis of how you have serviced their needs.

From a prospective customers view, a recommendation from an independent source is far more powerful than any marketing activity conducted by the business as it offers more credibility than any sales person.
