18 Ways To Extract Maximum Value From Your Clients!
Do you have acres of diamonds in your backyard?
· Don’t overlook the value of your existing customers. Sometimes we overlook how valuable something is because we believe we already know it.
· Look at your familiar customers in new ways. Think differently. Always be looking for new and innovative approaches.
· Learn what your customers want, then give it to them. Too often businesses do this in the wrong order. They come up with an idea for a product or service and then try to find people that will be interested in it. You’ll have more success if you see a desire and then try to meet it for your customers.
