Why Referrals Are Important For Business

Posted on January 10, 2013 | 1 Comment

Why-Referrals-Are-Important-For-Business

Referrals – A Powerful Way To Increase Your Client Base
All of us must have surely recommended a favorite restaurant to a friend at one time or the other, or you may have praised a much-loved shopping haunt to your mom, or told your colleagues about your latest mobile. All these are good examples of referrals, which could also be termed as word-of-mouth advertising.

Referrals – Cheapest And Most Effective Promotional Tool
Rather than spending your valuable resources on high scale advertising and promotional techniques, it would be a more profitable investment to spend your money on maintaining a high quality standard in your services/products. It does not take much to earn the loyalty of clients – dedicated customer service, outstanding support services, quality products, etc. More the satisfied customers, more referrals your business can get. And ultimately referrals mean new customers & more revenue for the business.

Getting Lesser Or No Referrals – Something May Be Wrong
If you find that the percentage of new customers coming in through referrals has suddenly dropped then there may be something wrong with the customer service being offered to them. In such cases there needs to be a proper analysis & evaluation of the present customer relationship management programs to understand what is wrong. Timely action is a must before much damage is done; this is so because badmouthing customers are as bad as the referrals are good for your business.

 Follow the ‘Customer Is The King’ Policy
As already mentioned, a satisfied customer is worth more than all the revenue you can hope to earn from print advertising & other promotional measures. A smart entrepreneur never makes the mistake of taking his/her customers for granted.

Today, many marketing experts around the world are advocating something which successful businessmen have known for ages i.e. satisfied customers are the most valuable assets that a business can hope to have.

Determine The Right Business For You

Posted on June 25, 2012 | 1 Comment

Never let haste and impatience play their part when you decide to start your own business. It is not something new that, young and energetic entrepreneurs indulge in businesses not knowing the pros and cons of the concerned venture. More often than not, they end up struggling for long course. Thus, it is crucial that you analyze various determining factors and choose your business accordingly.

Experience Is The Best Guide
Go by your experience rather than instinct. Yes, business can be tough proposition to handle. It is better to opt for a business in which you can use your accumulated experience. For example, if you have been working in transport industry for quite some time, you can utilize your knowledge and experience to start a business in the same sector. You won’t have to rely on too much external help in that case.

Refrain From Extravagant Business Ideas
Taking risks might be a good idea, but not for beginners. There are quite a few who believe that out of the box and novel ideas always work. This may not be necessarily true. It is advisable to experiment only after you have achieved some sort of stability in your business. Before that, it is better to go for tried and tested methods and business practices and stay away from extravagant business concepts.

Seek Business Where Competition Is Less
Having analyzed other factors, competition factor is worth considering while thinking of setting up a new business. It is advisable to choose a “less crowded pool”. This gives you an opportunity to concentrate on more on business than competition. Moreover, the “Survival Of The Fittest” condition eases out too. Less competition means more chances to survive, progress and prosper.

Consider Franchises
Buying a franchise operation is a good option. Franchises have tried and tested business model and may serve as the catalyst for bright business career. It may be a bit expensive alternative but considering the brand value some of the franchises enjoy, you can give it a try without worrying much about the consequences.
Remember, you must be aware of your strength and weaknesses and then only determine the business that suits you best.

Tools For Lead Generation In B2C and B2B

Posted on April 30, 2012 | 1 Comment

Before getting into the complexities of B2C and B2B, let’s have a brief recap of the concept of lead generation. Lead generation is a marketing term, commonly used in Internet fraternity that refers to the generation of interest among the consumers regarding a product or service of a business.

Categorization into B2C and B2B
The understanding of the target market is necessary for any business to strategize and eventually stay afloat. An acquaintance with the needs, tastes and interests of the target market helps an organization to plan accordingly and be able to come up with suitable lead generation. For simplification, the target market can classified among any one of the two large groups

  • Business to Consumers (B2C)

  • Business to Business (B2B)

Although, the two classes bear narrow distinction, yet the classification is relevant for the fact that the two require different approaches for lead generation.

Techniques for Lead Generation

For B2C
In context of Business to Consumers, simple advertising is perhaps the best tool for lead generation. Consumers who look for products and services for personal applications are interested in the same once they encounter the respective and frequent advertisements. If in any way they relate themselves with the product, they are curious to know about it. The basic principle of advertising is AIDCA, i.e. Attention, Interest, Desire, Conviction and Action, come into play for the consumer.

For B2B
Business to Business is altogether a different ball game, to talk in terms of cricket analogy. The prime requisite for lead generation in this case is specialization and a direct interaction with the target market. Specialization, in this context means that the product or a service for a business firm should be specifically meant for it so as to cater its organizational demands with maximum efficiency.

In the case of B2B, advertising proves to be useless altogether. The reason for this is the target market, which comprises of people busy in running their own business. They, on most of the occasions don’t have the time to watch your product in advertisements unlike housewives and children. Here, the lead generation technique seeks a more direct approach such as telemarketing. Telephone proves as one of the most useful tools for a direct interaction, a pre-requisite of B2B.
