To thrive in today’s economy, it’s not enough for customers to merely like you. They have to love you. Win their hearts and they will not only purchase more—they’ll talk you up to everyone they know. But what turns casual customers into passionate promoters? What makes people stick with you for the long haul?
The industry experts at FranklinCovey set out to unlock the mysteries of gaining the customer’s loyalty. In an extensive study that involved 1,100 stores and thousands of people, they isolated examples that stood out in terms of revenues and profitability. They found that these “campfire stores” burned brighter than the rest thanks to fiercely loyal customers and the employees who delight in making their customers’ lives easier.
In his book, Leading Loyalty, author Sandy Rogers reveals the principles and practices, of these everyday service heroes – the customer-facing employees who cultivate bonds and lift revenues through the roof. Full of eye-opening examples and practical tools, our upcoming Soundview Live Webinar will help you infuse empathy, responsibility, and generosity into every interaction.
What You’ll Learn:
- How to create warm, authentic connections by asking the right questions.
- How to take ownership of every customer’s individual issue.
- How to share customer insights openly and kindly.
- How to model, teach, and reinforce these essential behaviors through weekly team huddles.
