Great customer service
You can’t go wrong with great customer service. Whether product or service based, wholesale or retail, your clients will become repeat clients when your customer service is on point. However, an unsatisfied customer will not return and may go on to tell 100 people about the bad service they received.
When you go out of your way to assist your customers, they tell everyone they meet. Wouldn’t you rather be a source of happiness than one of frustration? Enterprises with terrible customer service cannot expect to grow. Is there any way that you can give better customer service? Ask your customers for feedback and perhaps offer them an incentive.

Marketing
If you are not investing time in marketing your business properly, you are missing out on numerous opportunities. Our business consultants will provide you with a way to market your business to the right customers.
The first essential step is defining the identity of your client. You want to know them like the back of your hand. What is important to them? What’s their annual income/revenue? How do they spend their disposable income? Where do they reside? There are many tools on the internet that can provide these answers.
Once armed with the correct data, we will help you plan how to spend your marketing budget. Will you grow your business through various marketing platforms? Social media, email campaigns, T.V., radio, personal appearances or sponsored events are just some of the ways in which you can market your business.

Strategic partnerships and networking
When you embark on the journey of becoming an entrepreneur, you will find that your social circle of professional partners gets smaller. To grow your business and expand your market share, you will need to create strategic partnerships with like-minded businesses. The goal is for their clients to become your customers too.
We find that our clients spend more time on their computers than interacting with real people. When you take time out to attend a networking event or benefit lunch for two hours you can make real connections. Reading body language and fully engaging with someone personally can win you more clients than staring at a computer day in, day out.
It’s about striking a balance. There are many networking groups across the UK and we encourage you to look up what's going on in your local area and regularly get out and meet people.

Periodic goal setting and philanthropy
What gets measured, gets done. Goal setting doesn’t stop once the doors are open and your business is up and running. Our business consultants will help you set daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, bi-annual, annual and 5-to-20 year business goals.
Philanthropy should be woven into your business plan. Not only does the law of reciprocity work in your favour, but if your customer associates you with doing good in the world, they are more likely to purchase from you. TOMS is an excellent example of this. Their shoes may not be particularly attractive or practical in urban environments and yet people all over the world purchase them because they feel like they’re doing their part in making the world a better place. What could you do to help your local community?
