Ep. 89: The 1 Best Way To Stop Your Customer Walking Out The Door, Never To Return With Maxine Shapiro
Interviews, strategy and advice for building your online business with your host Trudy Rankin.
Summary
You might wonder like I did, what improv could possibly have in common with business. And not just business, but with the customer/employee experience.
As it turns out, quite a lot, actually.
In today’s episode, I speak with Maxine Shapiro, who has taken her incredibly eclectic career and turned it into a business that helps businesses save money on marketing.
How?
By teaching their employees how to keep customers happy. Especially when everything is going pear-shaped in a bad way and the customer is at risk of walking out the door never to return.
We talk about some fairly important principles like:
- How great customer experience starts with a great employee experience
- When things go wrong, the best way of fixing it is to make mending it a collaboration between you and the customer
- The best customers come from making…and fixing…mistakes
- It's really about being human
