To Learn More How Radio Can Help Grow Your Business Providing great customer service is sometimes easier said than done. These 7 strategies will help you do it right. Most businesses claim to provide great customer service, but in the real world, their customers probably aren't nearly as satisfied as they think. In fact, they could be downright angry. A 2013 “Customer Rage” study by Arizona State University’s W.P. Carey School of Business found that 50 percent of American households had a bad customer experience over the prior 12 months—up from 45 percent in 2011 and 32 percent in 1976. What's worse, 56 percent of those who reported a complaint to a business got nothing in return, and many got very angry, even raging mad, due to their experience. “The moral of the story: Don’t invest in improving your customer service unless you’re going to do it right,” Mary Jo Bitner, executive director of ASU’s Center for Services Leadership, said in a news release about the study. “If a company handles your complaint well, then you typically become a more loyal customer. 1.

There are new people moving to town every week, not to mention plenty of visitors. While you may have been on the same corner since 1972 that's meaningless to newcomers who don't know who you are. To be a successful business you need to reach out to new customers on an ongoing basis. Without new customers, even a long-established business will eventually die. 2) I don’t advertise. Word-of-mouth is all I need to bring in business Word-of-mouth is great it's also one of the most ineffective forms of advertising there is. You can’t control it, you don’t know what’s being said or to whom. Plus, word-of-mouth is usually negative. Customers who have an acceptable business transaction may tell a friend or family member however those who have a bad experience will tell everyone they know. To rely solely on word-of-mouth as advertising is a serious marketing mistake! 3) Business is great. I don’t need to advertise That’s great, for now but what happens when business slows down? Effective advertising keeps potential new customers "in the pipeline." 4) Business is too slow. I can’t afford to advertise Unfortunately business will stay slow if you don’t. Advertising is nothing more than inviting people to do business with you so if things are slow, you need to be inviting more people to your store through advertising. Let's be honest...Every day you’re not advertising is a missed opportunity to gain more business. While you're procrastinating your competitors are going after all of your customers AND all of the new business too!
