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 works with small businesses and huge corporations. A small operation littered with debt and failed advertising will turn to Dan's instruction. Less than two years later, the business has zero debt and a home-based mail-order business generating over $200,000 a month with insanely high profit margins.
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 immediately made my business healthy again by one simple principle that I was neglecting. I think it is neglected by a lot of businesses. Dan believes simply that having strong relationships with existing customers is an essential growth and profit center in a business. In fact, he sees it as even more vital then getting new customers.
The thing that made the biggest difference in turning around our business was learning about what it meant to give excellent customer service and to set out to doing those things consistently. This means dealing with the customers in all states of emotion. Customers are just easier to deal with when everything goes the way they want it. The fact is that things don't always please them. So customer service is really about managing the times when they aren't happy. It is a much harder skill to master but with the potential for great rewards. The goal is to take the difficulty and grow customer loyalty by how you handle it.
A client can take offense to a number of things when it comes to doing business with you. Whether it be the actual product, your prices, or your customer service, some clients just find things to gripe about. And you can't ignore their complaints. Instead, acknowledge their problem and defuse 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.
Starting your phrase with, "Let me see if I understand you completely." Then restate the person's complaint. This will do two things. First of all, it gives the person a chance to calm down. And secondly, it shows the client that you are truly listening and taking their concerns seriously.
Finding at least one thing in their complaint that you can agree with. Regardless of how unfounded their complaint is in your mind, you should pick out one major point that you can agree with. Then, build your rebuttal on that point. For instance: "Well, Mr. Harris, I can certainly understand you being upset about delivery being late. I will personally make sure that it doesn't happen again. Now, about your other concerns..." This lets them know that you are not defensive about the situation, and you would rather help solve their problem than make excuses.
Solving the problem. The only reason a client picks a fight in the first place is to let you know that they have a problem. It's your job to play along and solve that problem. Remember, this is your chance to turn a negative situation into a positive one and actually gain your client's loyalty.
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.
My advice would be to copy those that have had success. Take the trail blazed by the millionaire business man.
