How to Generate Word of Mouth in Six Easy Steps
Introduction
Are you looking for a cost-effective way to attract more customers to your business? Generating word of mouth can be one of the most potent and affordable strategies. Here’s how you can make it happen in just six simple steps.
Why Word of Mouth Matters
Do you want your customers to rave about your business? Word of mouth is one of the most powerful ways to bring in new clients, and it starts with delivering outstanding customer service. Remember, the difference between ordinary and extraordinary service is just a little bit of “extra.”
A Memorable Experience
I recently needed new training shoes due to sore calves after exercise (definitely not because of age!). At a local sports store, two sales assistants had me walk in my bare feet to assess my needs. They listened and engaged warmly, ultimately helping me find the perfect pair. Their exceptional service made me recommend the store to others.
What Customers Really Want
Research shows that customers have two primary needs from a supplier:
1. Quality Core Service: Your product or service should function as promised. Providing this alone, however, is just "ordinary."
2. Friendly, Caring Service: Customers desire acknowledgment and a sense of individual care. This is the "extra" that sets you apart.
Six Steps to Exceptional Service
1. Make a Strong First Impression: How you appear and sound is crucial. Maintain eye contact and smile in person. On the phone, focus on how you deliver your greeting.
2. Warmth and Friendliness: Everyone appreciates a warm interaction, and it makes your job more enjoyable too.
3. Use Names Thoughtfully: Using a customer’s name shows recognition and respect. It's one of the most welcoming sounds to them.
4. Acknowledge and Respond: Listen to your customers’ concerns and acknowledge them. This shows that you value what they have to say.
5. Listen Actively: Good listening requires effort. Show interest by nodding or making small acknowledgments, especially over the phone.
6. End on a Positive Note: Conclude interactions with a positive statement on both a business and personal level. For example, say, “Feel free to call me if you need anything, and have a great holiday next week!”
Conclusion
Don’t underestimate the power of friendly, caring service. Going that extra mile generates word of mouth that can significantly benefit your business. Embrace these steps to create memorable experiences for your customers.
