Leveraging Customer Obsession
What is your company’s approach to customer obsession? Do you have a customer-centric approach or is your emphasis more on ensuring that employees are fully engaged and satisfied with their role in the organization which will, in turn, lead to excellent customer service? On this episode of #SellingWithSocial, Toby and I discuss this topic of customer obsession and how leaders like you can evaluate your approach. While Toby agrees that an organization needs to be focused on serving its customers effectively, he brings up the helpful point that a company can’t be so obsessed with a customer-centric approach that it leads to the detriment of everything else. Make sure to listen to this episode as Toby and I expand on this topic and much more!
The Value of Boots On The Ground
How can the support staff of your organization best serve and complement salespeople in the field? On this episode of #SellingWithSocial, Toby opens up and shares an approach that he’s used in the past and continues to champion. If we want to emphasize an approach that focuses on customer obsession, a good way to do that is to expose as many of our team members to interactions with clients and the perspective of salespeople. This boots on the ground approach can reap huge rewards in helping support staff get an idea of what the client’s needs are while also helping them glimpse the perspective of a salesperson in the field. How can your organization learn from Toby’s lessons and insights? Find out on this episode!
