Customers are the lifeblood of every business. For a business to survive, it needs customers. However, few businesses understand that it is much better to focus on customer retention rather than customer acquisition. Because of this, precious time and resources are wasted on drawing in new customers who aren’t in it for the long haul. This is why businesses need to focus on customer lifetime value.

How do you respond when someone asks, “Are you doing okay today?” What if someone asked, “How do you feel today?” Most likely, you would answer these two questions slightly differently. One question asks you just generally how you feel while the other implies that you might not be doing well in the first place, so you might answer differently. There was bias in the wording of one question while the other stayed more open-ended.

When managing a multi-location business, it’s important that employees at every touchpoint understand the laws and regulations that apply to their industry. Promoting responsible sales and ethical selling is crucial and requires a structured approach, as noncompliance can result in punitive damages for a brand. Responsible sales can include day-to-day decisions that are made on the fly by employees, or larger campaigns that are publicized to show the company's values in practice.

The lockdowns and aftermath of the 2020 global pandemic spiked growth in e-commerce sales as brick-and-mortar stores and restaurants closed their doors. Meetings and classrooms shifted to Zoom almost overnight. The pandemic pushed late adopters into new ways of shopping and interacting. Today even as people are returning to stores, the share of purchasing due to eCommerce continues to increase steadily. eMarketer estimates that by 2024 almost 20% of total retail sales will be via eCommerce, and

When you want to get information from customers, it might seem nice to be able to ask every single customer. To make that happen, you would need every customer to agree to be surveyed, and it would take an extreme amount of time, effort, and money to then ask every customer your survey questions. Even then, you would have an inordinate amount of data to sift through.

I did it to see if I was becoming a grumpy old man or if others had noticed this too. It turns out I am not alone in my assessment.
