Have you taken the time to think about the personality of your painting business and how it affects your ability to attract and keep customers?
How do you represent your business on your website, through reviews and in the community? Does it represent reality?
Episode 2: What Are Your Google Reviews Doing for You?
Why are your online reviews so important for your painting business? Because customers write feedback and potential customers make decisions based on those reviews.
In this episode, we focus on the importance of having Google Reviews and how to effectively use them.
Without customers you have no business. But when you are being pulled in five different directions it can be difficult to give a customer the time and attention they deserve. It’s important to remember that your reputation is at stake every time you are interacting with a customer or potential customer.
In this episode, we discuss the customer and what they are looking for when it comes to great customer service. We talk about three specific areas of customer service – everyday communication, your employees and the final walkthrough. Take a listen now!
