Frequently asked questions & links

Consider your Business problem:

Someone is buying-they are just not buying enough from you right now! Why? As a result, how many days a month are you talking to people you shouldn’t be?

If you unsuccessfully talk to 3 people a day in search of new business, multiplied by the value of your daily rate to your business, multiplied by 11 months a year, you have just worked out the cost to your business of making the wrong decision.

It’s a huge problem; which can cost you tens of thousands of pounds, even hundreds of thousands of pounds each year in lost business!!!

Stop wasting time on non buyers for your goods or services!
Why hunt for new clients who cost 5-9 times as much to acquire, when you have existing client relationships that could be profitably improved today?

Do you know the lifetime value of a client?
Yes-that’s right-an existing client.

The life time value of a client is (a) x (b) x (c) x (d)

(a) The average order value: i.e. £ 10,000 per order,
Multiplied by:

(b) The clients average order frequency per year. i.e. 3 times per annum
Multiplied by:

(c) The number of years a client will stay with me: i.e. 10 years hopefully
Multiplied by:

(d) The number of referrals received from a client each year: i.e. 4 referrals per year over 10 years, using a proper referral generation system.

The lifetime value of your client in just this example is £12 million.

Why aren’t you out there looking after them?

Don’t tell yourself it’s because you cannot afford it

Just look at the lifetime value of your top 10 clients!

Have you considered how many promoters, sponsors and champions are out there amongst your existing clients who have the potential to help you by referring you business?

Lovewine can show you how to realise this untapped value.

Your real competitors are:

1. Fear: Are you feeling scared of face to face engagement with your existing clients?

2. Apathy: It’s such an effort organising a live event. Who can I trust to look after my interests?

3. Ignorance: If I ignore the problem of how to look after my clients, it will go away. Hmm, I don’t think so. Although, your clients may go away instead.

We have the right tools to help you overcome all these issues.

Consider this: Why do Clients leave you?

82% of clients leave as a result of perceived indifference. This is about relationship. You are in a business relationship with your clients.

Your client’s primary value is the need for recognition from you.

It’s not about money.

What would your bottom line look like if you lost your key clients?

Lose a client and morale drops. The chances are that other clients may be lost as well, as targets keep being missed. This will have a knock on effect on retention of your key staff, who may decide the future looks brighter elsewhere.

Ask yourself: “Do you want your business to have:

1. Improved client relationships?
2. Improved morale?
3. Renewed focus?”
