Not to long ago I was wondering around a few restaurants while my car was getting some work when I noticed something about the way corporate businesses are ran in this day and age. They miss out on the minor details, which means if you remember details people will notice. Details all the way down to how your bathroom looks and even the way you open the door. If you show any kind of sincereness to your customers you are already one step ahead of the game, but what details do you need to remember to please your customers? All of them! But here’s a few ideas for you to think about:

First idea, clean your workplace. If you care about your store so will other people. “Cleanliness is next to godliness!” Too many times I have walked into shops that have dusty counters and dusty items. If your items are dusty what does that tell your customer? It means no one is buying your product, which signals to everyone else that this is not a product worth buying. (more…)

Remember when you went to the grocery store and the clerk knew your name or going to the bank to catch up on gossip? What happen to these times? Technology is what has happened.

A lot of customers also have experience in business and be able to share many words of wisdom. Not only may they have some words of wisdom they maybe able to broaden the scope of your market.
