Tips For Dealing With An Upset Customer In Person

AMAZING NEW SYSTEM BUILDS YOUR BUSINESS ON AUTOPILOT








If the job where you work rarely puts you in a position where you have to deal with customers - and where, if you do deal with customers, it is usually through email or over the phone - you will not have to worry about one of the things that is among the biggest concerns of people who deal with customers all the time: dealing with an upset customer in person! When it comes to dealing with an upset customer in person, it is not that you have necessarily done anything wrong that makes it such a frustration - but in fact, the fact that you have probably done nothing wrong heightens the frustration, as the customer will often treat you as though you have done something wrong; for this reason, knowing how deal with an upset customer in person can be extremely valuable, as it can lessen the strain these encounters put on you.

The first thing the customer will want to know is that you are on their side, as they will assume you are "against them" if you are not "for them"; even if you do not necessarily agree with their complaint, you should always be understanding and create an image of agreement, as this will cause them to feel like you are their ally rather than their enemy - which, of course, will prevent them from turning their attack to you.

Once the boundaries of the discussion have been established in such a way that they feel you are on their side, you can take the next step, which is offering solutions; the person with whom you are dealing may turn out to be inconsolable, but at least - in taking this approach - you can try to solve the problem on your own.

When it comes to an upset customer, however, there will be times when you will not be able to solve the problem on your own; when this happens, remember that there is always someone above you to whom you can pass this customer along - which is what you will sometimes have to do, as many customers in this position simply remain upset until they get the satisfaction of talking to someone's "superior"!

Tips For Promoting Your Business Through Pictures

One thing that you are probably aware of if you run a small business of your own (that you are perhaps even painfully aware of!) is the fact that, within your business, you will always be competing against others, as it will be inevitable that some of your competitors will thrive while others of your competitors will not survive; because of this - and because you will certainly want to be on the "thriving" side, rather than on the "not surviving" side - it will be important that you look for every edge you can find in order to experience success, and one edge that you should pay attention to is learning how to promote your business through pictures.

More than likely, you have a website that you use for your business - either as a promotional tool, or as a storefront in its own right - and you may even have realized that one of the most important things for you to achieve success with this website is for it to be visually appealing, but what you may not have realized is that having pictures that pertain to your business is one of the best ways to make it visually appealing!

Another thing that will be important is to have pictures that pertain to your business in print ads of yours; it is one thing to have a print ad that gives the viewer information, but it is another thing altogether (that is, it is a much more effective thing!) for the print ad to tell the viewer something all on its own, through a well-placed picture.

And having some pictures on site if you have a storefront, or (to an even greater degree!) if you have an office that customers or clients come to for meetings, will go a long way in drawing these customers and clients in; have some of your favorite pictures (of those that relate to or pertain to your business) blown up and mounted on the wall, and this will give your offices an extra, useful flair.

And most importantly of all when it comes to these pictures, make sure you are hiring someone who knows what they are doing to take these pictures; if you are using pictures as one of the "faces" of your business, you will want these pictures to look professional - and the way to make this happen is to have a professional take the pictures!

Writing Good Articles To Grow Your Website

AMAZING NEW SYSTEM BUILDS YOUR BUSINESS ON AUTOPILOT








One thing you may have come to understand is that writing articles - and submitting these articles to article sites - is one of the best ways for you to create backlinks for your website, and for you to drive up direct traffic, but one thing you may still be trying to figure out is exactly what constitutes a "good" article.

Of course, good, competent writing should be the foundation of a good article, but while it is pretty much impossible to write a good article with bad writing, it is not at all impossible to write a bad article with good writing - and the content of the article itself will be your first defense against having a bad article: make sure the content relates to your site, and that it provides readers with valuable information.

In addition to covering a topic that relates to your site and doing so with good writing, you will also want to make sure the writing itself is conversational and engaging; try to make readers feel as though they are reading something written "to them" by someone they know, rather than making them feel as though they are reading some sort of business correspondence.

And making sure to leave your articles open-ended will be one of the biggest keys to getting clicks on the links you include within the content of these articles; this can be a fine line to balance your writing along, as you will want to make your articles informative and worth reading, but will want to do so without giving so much away that your reader feels there is no need to click on the link you provide - so write with this goal in mind, and keep tabs on how many clicks you get on different articles, so you can determine which approaches are working and which can be discarded.

When you keep these tips in mind as you write your articles, you will be able to start increasing your site's search engine ranking and traffic - all by writing about a topic that relates to your site, and that you probably enjoy writing about in the first place!
