Are you doing enough for your clients? And, what is it you need to be doing to keep them onboard? This is a question every single business owner needs to be considering. Because if you aren’t, then it is highly likely someone else will, and before you know it, even your most loyal clients have jumped ship to take advantage of something you are offering or considering in your part of the relationship.
But how can you meet their needs, and why is it your reusability? Like anything, a relationship is a two-way street. If your client feels you are making that street more challenging to drive, constantly putting roadwork in the way, or making excuses for why the road isn’t open on their side, yet you’re hurtling along the other, they will start driving a different route.
Talk to them
Quite possibly, one of the easiest ways to find out what your customers want is to talk to them. Learn more about who they are and what they need, and, more importantly, why they are partnering with you. Then you need to look at what you’re offering them to see if you meet these needs. If not, then meet them; how can you go the extra mile if you aren’t? Filling a gap in the market before they know there is a gap is a skill all good business owners need to work on doing to ensure only the highest standards are met and that you are innovating to meet client demands and needs.
Improve internal processes
It doesn’t matter what industry you are in; if your internal processes are working smoothly, you are decreasing your ability to put the client first and deliver on your promises, from using job management software to allow you to connect all employees, whether in the office or working away from it, at all points of the journey, from contract signing of the last order to investing in top-of-the-range production equipment and machinery to improve production times, reduce delays and meet demands for physical products.
Improve communication
Poor communication is one of the biggest reasons for things not going to plan. Poor communication leads to mistakes and things being overlooked and is the beginning of a breakdown in your relationship with employees and clients. You need to be clear about what you want, what you expect, and how you are delivering on your promises to clients. Be to the point and precise, and don’t try to hide behind vague language or terminology to buy you time. Be upfront and honest and communicate regularly both when they are going well and when they are. This needs to be across the board, internal communication between yourself and employees and between employees themselves too, between your company and your suppliers and contractors and also the client. You cannot expect to meet a client’s needs if you aren’t communicating clearly with anyone.
The customer journey and experience are vital to every single business. People won’t continue working with you if you fail to meet their needs and do what you promised. So step back, identify areas you can do better and make the required changes so things are better going forward.
