There are pretty much no secrets anymore, I think that we can all agree on that. So, where does that put you in managing your business? One wrong size, one delayed delivery…one unfriendly rep…and it’s all over the internet. What can you do?
- Earning your prospect’s trust has always been important, but now it’s more important than ever as the internet brings total transparency.
- The 2022 Edelman Trust Barometer “shows that consumers may buy a product (service) based on its reputation, but 59% would stop buying if they didn’t trust the company.”
- Where are your Google customer reviews today? What is your business’ average rating? When was the most recent review? If you’re not in the “4’s” and your most recent review is over 2 weeks old…you’re in trouble.
- Nowadays if a customer feels that they have been wronged, it is easier than ever to throw your company name overboard.
- What can you do: Stay truthful and genuine. Get ahead of negativity. Make ethics contagious.
- In many cases, customers don’t give you a second chance. High standards are more important than ever today.
