Brainstorm. Here are some key threads that might get you started:-
1. What can you do to make the experience for your customers as complete as possible from start to finish?
Think through in detail exactly what a customer experiences. From the first moment that they hear about your business through making a call, coming to see you Wholesale Marcus Davenport Jersey , parking their car, getting in the door Wholesale P.J. Williams Jersey , making that first purchase, getting advice etc. etc. Think it through in minute detail. Think about how they might feel how you can enhance the experience at every stage.
2. Create hidden depths.
Create things that customers might not see every time that they visit. But little things that they might pick up on as they come back to you more often.
For instance Wholesale Andrus Peat Jersey , nice flowers in reception could create a great first impression. But how about if one of your customers wants to use the washrooms? Some nice perfumes would make it pretty special.
And what about when customers leave your business? Or when they get back home? What can you do that will really cement their experience?
3. How could you respond to complaints that you receive?
