My friend (yesterday’s post) has learned a lot about her program over the past year and offers a fresh perspective based on lessons learned, here are some tips I’ve offered to enhance her outreach:
1) Spend a little more time engaging the customer in relevant dialogue; talk to them about the product they’ve purchased, solicit their input and point out your digital assets – sell them on visiting these portions of your site and sharing information.
2) As you sell them on these digital assets and associated benefits, be crisp and precise – make sure you have this scripted so there is no confusion by the reps. A consistent branded message across channels goes a long way in keeping things clear.
3) Take a little extra time to get their email ID, get them to notice your Facebook page, let them follow you on Twitter. Don’t just ask for their email first, describe the benefits of your program and only then ask… this increases your chances of collecting the information.
This intelligent conversation gives your brand credibility, makes your reps look real and helps to engage your customers.
