Good Customer Service . . . Good Marketing! Many business owners tend to think in a two dimensional manner when it comes to marketing. It can be difficult to think "outside the box" and see the potential offered by unique, less traditional marketing options. In fact, at times it can be difficult to see the potential of the most traditional marketing around! One of the most valuable forms of marketing to a business is, has been and always will be good old fashioned word of mouth. It is often taken for granted and left to chance, but it shouldn't be. There are things that can be done to maximize your word of mouth advertising. Some word of mouth may come from people telling other people about an ad they saw or heard, and suggest they give you a try. The amount of traffic generated this way is bound to be minimal though . . . it lacks personalization. Testimonials, Referrals, or Word of Mouth is truly most effective when the person giving it feels they have a vested interest. They are confident that there advice is solid, and will not result in them "getting egg on their face". This confidence transfers itself to the person receiving the advice, allowing them to act upon on it feeling secure in their decision. How do you earn loyalty like that!? The most straightforward and sure fire way to accomplish this level of confidence in people is to simply provide great customer service. How do you do this? It will vary a bit for each of us, but speaking generally:
An interesting thing to note here is that many of the best referrals come from people who initially had a problem. Wow! How can that be!? You can not provide flawless products and services all of the time; people really don't expect you to. Having said that, they really don't want to be the one that experiences problems either; they would rather have it be someone else. The key here is not in being "perfect", but it is in how you handle the situation when you are not.
"Marketing" is a concept that involves a great deal more than just "advertising". Step beyond traditional advertising and consider the power that good customer service has to offer. If you work to ensure that your customers receive great customer service, you will find that you have a loyal following of customers that shop with you frequently and provide you with a limitless supply of leads.
