Description:

In this workshop, business coach Erica Saccoccio shares why business owners should spend as much time caring for their current customers as they do seeking new prospects. Suppose you are wondering about the best way to make the most out of your existing business relationships. In that case, this session is full of golden nuggets you can implement in your business today. You will see gains in your fanfare and bank account if you have a business-to-business model or a business-to-consumer. So we implore you to stop looking for that next customer and cultivate the ones you have as one method to build customer loyalty and a strong brand. The stats do not lie. Did you know that " The closing rate to selling a product or service to a new customer is 5%-20% in retrospect, this percent is increased dramatically with a closing rate of 60%-70% when doing with an existing's customer." World Steam.
