THE PROGRAM

STEP 1 - ONBOARDING

Team interviews

Confidential interviews with each team member. We will interview each of your employees to gain insights into how their personal and professional lives impact one another and to understand their impressions of the business, the employee experience, the customer experience, and owner leadership.

Confidential interview of owner(s). We will interview each of the owners to gain insights into how their personal and professional lives impact one another and the business. The interview will also assess individual owner objectives.

Financials review

We will conduct an overview of activity to establish a baseline and to prioritize activity according to frequency, profitability, and scalability.

Customer acquisition and retention review

We will analyze your churn rate to better understand what attracts customers and what factors contribute to customer attrition.

Marketing review

We will analyze your marketing strategies and compare factors driving initial customer buy-in to the realities of the customer experience.

Processes review

We will consider the dynamics controlling for the interactions between customers and employees, between employees and owners, and between customers and the business generally.

Team meeting

Discuss interview findings. The entire staff will sit and discuss interview findings. The objective here is to create total awareness and to bring all members of the team to a common understanding of team dynamics. Identities will be kept confidential and all team members will have an opportunity to weigh in on each finding.

Discuss desired outcomes. The team will engage in a discussion about desired outcomes to create a common definition of success and an understanding of what activities will discourage or encourage success.

Leadership principles training. We will establish a hierarchy and work with the team and with individual staff members to learn and adopt effective leadership techniques.

Creation of team agreement. Based on discussions about desired outcomes and the establishment of leader-follower roles, we will draft a team agreement that all owners must first approve and then all employees will sign.

Touchpoint Choreography: Engineering a premium customer experience

The team will work to design a customer experience flow that aims to standardize the customer experience to improve customer retention, boost referrals, and increase revenue.

Marketing and communications strategy development

Having established a new customer dynamic, we will work to align marketing and communications strategies to achieve consistency between initial customer impressions and the overall customer experience. We will further establish your current Customer Acquisition Costs (CAC) to determine the effectiveness of internal and external marketing efforts.
