Finding (and Keeping!) the Right Customers - An Important Webinar Series by Dr. John Hayes

by Kyle Stites

From what we have seen in today's economy, it seems undeniably clear that finding and keeping the right customers must be a top priority. Recently, there has been a lot of talk about this in the franchise world - franchisees have been working on improved individual marketing plans to better their customer retention, and determine which customers are the ones spending the least amount of time and business resources and the most of amount of money.

Our friend and respected franchise veteran, Dr. John Hayes, has spent the past few months working with franchisees addressing this issue, and determined several crucial initiatives to help retain the customers that will make a positive impact on business.  His findings and expertise have prompted his Webinar series, How To Capture & Keep The Right Customers. Presented in four one hour long sessions, you will attain pertinant marketing tools and techniques to help prosper your business by finding (and keeping) valuable customers.

Some of the key questions he will focus on are:

  • Do you know who your “right” customers are?
  • Do you know what it costs to capture just one of them?
  • Do you know which customers not to keep, and how to let go of them?

Dr. Hayes' experience in counseling many of the world's leading franchise chains makes his insight into this recurring issue something that you can instantly put into action.  His practice of evaluating the immediate and lifetime value of a customer will allow you to realize how important it is to obtain a marketing plan that works for years and keeps consumer loyalty top priority.
