Dan Kennedy is known in business and marketing circles as the "millionaire maker". His fame comes from his results. He takes his clients and shows them step by step how to take and idea and turn it into money.
Entrepreneur Magazine says that Dan Kennedy has "at least 101 moneymaking ideas for any business owner." 'Millionaire-Maker' Dan Kennedy moves with remarkable ease from one very different field to another, working with clients in 62 different businesses, industries and professions, earning as much as $250,000.00 in a single month providing unusual direct-response advertising and direct marketing advice, strategy, copywriting and marketing materials, video production and infomercials, and profit improvement systems.
Kennedy's value is best measured by what he has been able to do for the mom and pop business that is failing in every way. They'll turn to Dan's methods and in months will go from high debt to zero debt and revenues of over $200,000 a month.
On the other hand there is Dan's marketing consultations with billion dollar information marketing company Guthy Renker. Dan helped U.S. Gold increase its revenues by millions. The list goes on and on.
Dan taught me the principle of total customer value. Basically, Dan stressed that it easier and faster and ultimately more profitable to focus on developing the existing relationships with current customers.
Taking this principle to heart, we revitalized two of our businesses to stability, then profitability, by becoming excellent at customer service. Part of that means learning how to deal with and engender loyalty in your after they have had a problem with something you are doing. Now there are definitely problem clients out there and they need to be fired as customers. But many times, it is a great client who may bring more future business, if you can make the situation right.
It is no surprise that customers can complain about any number of things. It could be the product, prices, or your service. Also, even when all those things are excellent, some customers just find things to gripe about. Whatever happens, avoid the temptation to simply ignore them. Instead own up to the problem and calm the situation by:
Thanking them. Often the customer will express themselves impolitely. Start by thanking them regardless. None of this is personal. Stay calm and composed.
Beginning your phrase with, "Let me see if I understand you completely." Then restate the complaint of the customer. This accomplishes two things. First, it gives the customer pause and a moment to calm down. Second, it shows that you are listening and taking their concerns seriously.
Making sure you find one thing in their complaint that you can agree with. It doesn't matter how baseless you may see their complaint, pick one major point you can agree with. Build your rebuttal on that point. As an example: "Well, Mr. Thomas, I can totally understand you being upset about the delivery being late. I will see to it that it doesn't happen again. Now, about your other concerns..." This shows them that you are not defensive about the situation, and you would rather help solve their problem than make excuses.
Finding a solution to the problem. Remember, the only reason a client picks a fight in the first place is to get their point across that they have a problem. Your job is to always stay focused on solving that problem. Don't forget that when you handle this situation correctly, you will gain more customer loyalty and this will really pump up your bottom line.
In my mind the right instruction saved my business. I learned about total customer value and how refocusing on that alone can make things fun and profitable, where before it looked dreary and hopeless. Dan Kennedy's Magnetic Marketing is the centerpiece of his teachings.
Dan backs up Magnetic Marketing with a full year's money back guarantee. Anytime you want to send it back, there will be no hassles, just a full refund. I think that many times, the student really has to be ready for the right teacher appears. With a new business, with limited money to lose, missteps or wrong trails can destroy you before you even start. If you are already going, but just haven't solved the riddle of how to market for big money profits, you might be ready for Dan Kennedy and the magic of Magnetic Marketing. It could make all the difference and you have nothing at all to lose.
Simply walk the path of the millionaire business men. I am betting Magnetic Marketing and all Dan's other real world profit making teachings will be the bedrock of your business and all your future businesses.
