In this series of articles I am suggesting you look at the areas where you have the potential to double your business. So far I have suggested you look at how you can make your marketing twice as effective, what you can do to bring clients back twice as often and how to get your clients to spend twice as much.

Finally, this beauty has heaps and heaps of upside, because I simply suggest you harness the power of referrals!

You see, you can double your results if every client introduces a friend. And that’s when you get word of mouth working for you (somewhere between 80% and 92% of new customers come from that). To make it happen is simple. You get clients talking positively about you because your team make them say “WOW!” by doing those little extra, unexpected things that others don’t do (try shaking hands to welcome them or saying you are “fantastic!” when they ask).

The “how’s things?” call is one of those techniques every businessperson should use.
It works beautifully for anybody who is serious about making their business successful.
In fact, if you’re not using it you should be.

 

Remember, it’s what you do differently that people talk about! Or maybe you ask them whether they know somebody who would appreciate your service or products. Or you create a system to regularly talk to your database about referring a friend (ask me for the “I must be stupid” letter). And you reward clients every time they introduce a friend. Make it worthwhile by giving them an unexpected reward they’ll appreciate.

So there we are! You have had four simple way of boosting business beautifully. It’s as easy as remembering 2 x 2 x 2 x 2.
