BIG MISTAKE (3 of 10) according to Peter Thomson
Leaving cash on the table that is identifiable using the Magic Matrix (TM)
Do you know what you sell? If you don’t know, your customers don’t know either.
Do you know who your clients are? If you don’t know, your clients don’t know either.
The empty holes in the Magic Matrix are your primary windows of Opportunity where you are leaving cash on the table (see the pic in this post!)
Do you use survey monkey or Fusion Soft (CRM tools)? You should, to keep on top of who is buying what, who is interested in what, etc.
Books / booklets are the best business card you can have, to establish yourself as an expert and display what you sell (and to whom) brad note – check out my very first post in this blog to get yourself a copy of Jonathan Jay’s free book!
You need to be clear how replaceable you and your company are and how difficult it is for others to learn what you do
Your customers should know, like and trust you
If customers haven’t bought any of your other related products / services from you, it’s because they didn’t KNOW you sell them
You need to make sure they KNOW, via websites, emails, newsletters, service calls, face to face meetings etc…
In the telling, you are doing some selling
A great line to use is: “I’m ever so sorry, but I’ve been so busy I haven’t told you about the others things we sell”….
You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him drink – UNLESS YOU ADD SOME SALT TO THE OATS FIRST
If you're looking for short, sharp informational and inspirational quips to spur you along in your business, then you may find something here of INFINITE VALUE to your business growth.
