Make a note of business to your customersMicromarketing experts have found a curious thing that has been called “the last name effect” which translated would be something like “the effect of the name.”

It happens that as reported by The Huffing ton Post, studies show that even if you do not believe it, our names affect how we behave when buying products.

People with last names with letters that are at the end of the alphabet tend to buy more quickly when there is a bid while people with last names beginning with the first letters of the alphabet are usually not rush to acquire such offers.

The explanation that the experts give this difference in behavior would have its purpose in the way they usually are arranged in the classrooms at school and schools.

In colleges, schools, colleges and even universities to students are sorted by their last names in alphabetical order which makes people with surnames beginning with the final letters of the alphabet are always last and will generate a tension or anxiety when you have to deliver something in the class.

This anxiety makes then those people whose surnames begin with the last letters of the alphabet trying to react faster to offers that may exist so as not to miss them.

How technical services to business sales

Wednesday, November 3rd, 2010

sales infoThere is good news for those who have wondered what happens to these electronic devices fail when the warranty has expired and cannot be repaired because the country does not have spare parts or repair services.

According to information from the Consumer Commission today in La Nation, the business making the sale are required to report the existence of technical service and spare parts in the country. In addition, this information should be included on the invoice or receipt.

It is always recommended that customers make this consultation before purchasing any equipment, but who for some reason bought without checking the data and the business they are not clarified in writing, may terminate the business before the Commission for disrespecting the consumer’s right to information.

Each case is different and you cannot generalize, but if you have a shiny new phone that is useless because there are no spare parts and the seller had warned him that a complaint could help solve the problem.

Exposure Valuable Marketing without Spending Money

Exposure Valuable Marketing without Spending MoneyIf you are betting. The trick to discover these methods is to think of creative ways you can get your products or services in front of, or in the hands of, your potential customers.

And that last part is critical. It ‘not valid unless it comes to marketing aimed at people who have identified the most likely to buy your products or services.

1) Share your knowledge if you have specific knowledge or skills related to your business, think of ways to share knowledge. Consider writing a regular column for a website or publication that targets the same customers we target. Become a regular contributor to magazines or radio or television program.

2) Create Information Products Package and deploy your knowledge in the form of ozone, newsletter or special report. Build your contact list and distribute this valuable information on a regular basis. Use this as an opportunity to sell your products and services and be sure to include special offers or awards to recipients that act by a certain date.

3) Provide Seminars and Presentations Do we offer a professional service or personal? Consider the reservation for you speeches in which they can provide valuable information for your area of expertise to groups of people. Make sure that the groups are representative of the types of customers or could be expected to benefit from services. This tactic serves a variety of marketing purposes.

First, it is in front of where your prospective customers. In this campaign is called ‘awareness generation’ and is the first step towards the sale. Second, it allows people the opportunity to know you and / or services. And with a service business where customers are buying the ‘you’ (which is really what they’re buying when your purchase of services) is important to understand that the services they provide and get to know you.

People like to work with people they like. Given the choice between taking two people with the same skills and services, most people choose the person they like or feel the best, with chemistry. Be sure to give attendees a special offer on your products or services, at the end of your presentation. Let’s offer to create a time limit for their urgency to take advantage of the offer on the spot.

4) Give anything Away Find a way to give samples of products or services. There is an association or group meeting or any other event that is looking for donations to be given away as door prizes? Why not donate a package of services or products? You’ll get exposure (an announcement by the group leader) among the group when the package is sold at auction, or announced and given away to everyone. You are also the person who wins the package, the chance to try your products or services without risk.

Why is the development of technology is affecting our business

Thursday, September 16th, 2010

development of technology is affecting our businessToday more than ever, our prosperity as organizations, corporations and individuals, depends on how well we understand the forces that transform the world, because we can adapt to changes, increasingly rapid and intense. In a recent survey by Ernst & Young on the mega trends that mark the course of the planet, Dr. Ian Pearson, a renowned British scientist and futurist, said the economy will become more “human” in the next decade, given the leading role will play and artificial intelligence technology in production and business management.

The increasing spread of social networking software will create more space for the participation of people who use technology to channel their frustrations citizens and organize actions that leaders will focus on online, leading to boycotts and other actions. As a result, CSR will be a key factor for survival, and companies need to adapt to new threats and opportunities. Integrity and transparency are key factors in preserving the credibility and business reputation, and not lose the confidence of customers, who will take on greater power and be more demanding when deciding whom to buy.

the agenda and the role of corporate boards will also change. Proper risk management is probably the most important. In addition, the boards should more closely monitor the managers, challenging them on whether there are sufficient resources, including human and financial resources to successfully execute the strategies defined. The boards will have to become more involved in the decisions of companies, especially those that involve greater risks, with particular emphasis on issues of control.

The post-crisis world will usher in changes in legal and tax structures of financial firms, will have higher capital requirements, regulatory and prudential measures more stringent, and demands for more and better financial information to report, among other changes.

What is the impact of the crisis on sales of goods?

Saturday, May 29th, 2010

 impact of the crisis on sales of goodsIn times of crisis, we must therefore be more vigilant than ever to our customers must as cost increase our portfolio to get more recurring sales. However, has the commercial department of our company all the information of what happens on the clients? Your concerns? Their needs? Its challenges? There are organizational theories that defend the mainstreaming of the sales department, i.e., workers belonging to a company’s sales department since the ultimate goal of either party is selling and we should all be aligned with it. While implementing this type of enterprise policy is complex if we can convert all the different equipment components in extensions of the commercial department. How? In the end it is simply (and I stress the complex simply because it is exactly) that the information flow and knowledge of all our customers in the company itself.

No matter how well you do your job a more commercial who knows who this customer but every day interacting with him? Well, maybe this figure is certainly a / a technician to fix the cost, he or the carrier that serves the material every morning, him / her streamlines administrative procedures, etc. At the end always, depend more on these professionals as possible to our customer’s loyalty and therefore sales from them. However, there is awareness, knowledge of such unstructured, not directly measurable, which is lost, inevitably, and the valuable knowledge that we must not lose.

This is where technology is going to become our ally again. Knowledge management systems like Share Point are a powerful solution to all this valuable knowledge is not lost. The agility and efficiency by transferring the information with Unified Communications finally get information to flow in a real way in our company and we are not even a sigh escape from our customers. We will have created a collaborative environment for a team more cohesive, therefore more effective, and more efficient.
