Our yard needs updating and my wife and I got bids from several landscaping contractors. Many had reviews that talked about the contractor’s good work, beautiful designs, and reasonable prices. The one we hired had reviews like this and something else.
The winning contractor’s customers said things like, “He took care of everything,” “We didn’t have to worry about anything,” “We knew we made the right decision.”
Clearly, they weren’t just satisfied customers; they were fans. They didn’t just love his work; they loved him.
That’s what you want from your clients.
When your clients adore you and trust you, when they love you, you get a high percentage of repeat business, referrals, positive word-of-mouth, testimonials, and clients who are easier to work with.
Your practice thrives, and you don’t have to do a lot of marketing or advertising.
How do you make clients fall in love with you? Not just by working hard and delivering great results. Clients pay you well for that, and expect it.
Clients don’t fall in love with you because of what you do for them. They fall in love with you because of how you make them feel.
You make them feel appreciated and safe. They are in good hands and don’t have anything to worry about.
How do you accomplish this?
By how you speak to them, how you reply to their questions, what you send them, and what you do for them beyond your core work.
It’s staying in touch with them, smiling when they come into the room, and remembering the names of their kids.
It’s treating them like a cherished friend or a member of your family and making sure your staff does the same.
It may not be easy, but it’s not complicated. Show your clients you love them and they’ll show you the same.
