11 Ways To Double Your Customer Base In Four Weeks

"The gift of the gab" People often say you're either born with it, or not. Yes having that "gift" or certain personalitiy type helps when it comes to someones natural ability to sell but there are ways we can ALL increase our sales.?

ActionCOACH are proud to have produced a White Paper that outlines simple but highly effective steps that are guarenteed to produce new leads and succesfully convert them into paying customers.??

To give you a brief overveiew of what to expect here are just three of the 11 methods that will guarentee you new customers in record time no matter what your personality type.?

1. Don't Be Affraid To Say 'No' - It's time to 'Weed Out Bad Clients and Cater to the Best.

Idenitify who you're best customers are, take into account the £££ they earn you but also you're relationship with them, are they an easy customer to work with?

Start prioritisng those customers your business prefers and start saying 'no' more to those who casue you a headache. Contrary to popular belief, it is sometimes advantageous to lose customers. By prioritising the customers you prefer to have, it makes it possible to remove those who create unnecessary headaches and detract from your overall bottom line. This allows you to better serve your ideal/ more valuable customers. Furthermore, it also allows you to focus on attracting the kinds of desirable customers you want. By removing those who cause headaches and no longer fit as your 'ideal customer' you will form the core of your business’ customer base, and by appealing to them it is possible to create more customers who are similarly lucrative. The needs your new customer base will always be the same as the needs of the best potential customersyour are trying to attract. Learn to cater to those needs and those kinds of clients, and you’ll watch your bottom line swell in size.?

2. Upskill - Source further sales training.

This will not only directly impact your sales teams skills to convert prospects into paying customers, it will also show?them that they are a valued part of the business. Feeling valued helps employees to develop a sense of ownership and responsibility, as well as feeling worthy and happy in their role. It means they will?become a better sales person and asset to your team, whilst at work, but also during their personal time. If an employee is happy and feels worthy in their role they are far more liekyl to unwittingly sell for your business during their time out of the office, possibly to those who were never even a prospect to begin with, and thus, further growing your database.?

3. Welcome To The Party - Time is of the essence

As leads and contacts are made, they need to be converted as soon as possible into customers. Keeping tabs on leads or sending out costly mailings can be a drain, not an asset. They can simply become a nuisance and a labour-intensive list of names.

Once someone becomes a “lukewarm lead”, it is important to warm them up so that they become a hot prospect and then a loyal customer. Conversion requires getting to know the person, understanding their wants and needs, and then fulfilling those needs. It is so important to take those prospects through that journey as soon as they become lukewarm.

When someone walks into a party and doesn’t know anyone, they are inclined to turn around and leave. But a good host or hostess knows how to spot them, introduce them, show them around, and help them enjoy themselves. The same holds true for businesses that are converting strangers into loyal customers.

You have most likely worked hard to get your prospect to the party so don't let them walk out the door before they have even been shown around.
