When it comes to building your business, effective communication plays a big role in your success. This goes beyond simply pushing sales and promotions onto your customers.
As a business owner, you must do what Gene Gates calls closing the loop, so you can break out of that problematic one-way communication. According to Gates, you’re at a disadvantage when you don’t make the time to have a conversation with your customers. And above all, communicate successfully with a clear message.
In the latest episode of the “Winning on Main Street” podcast, we sit with Gates, an expert in effective communication and host of the podcast Back to Better, as he explains the importance of communicating in ways best suited for each customer and adopting their preferred method during the on-boarding process.
