Behind the Curtain

Behind the Curtain

Don The Idea Guy October 19, 2010

Customers are curious. Customers like to “know” things.  Let customers peek behind the curtain of your business to see how the magic is accomplished. 

The Wizard of Oz only succeeded in frightening and aggravating his prospects when he tried to make himself appear to be the big man and impress them with how big and powerful his organization was (we’ve been in business for 100 years, we’re largest supplier of Munchkin Mufllers in the west, etc.), but once his buyers expressed doubt all his bragging evaporated into a puff of smoke.

Bring your prospects inside.  Give them a tour of your production facility so they can witness how clean and organized you are, so they can actually see the care and quality control your employees demonstrate on the job, so they can connect with how you’ll serve their needs when they choose to become a customer.

Give your prospects a peek behind the curtain of your business.  Make them feel at home and engage their brains while you win hearts. It will give them the courage to do more business with you.

Job Duties vs. Opportunities

“That’s not my job.” I’ve heard this phrase uttered way too much in the workplace during my career. The sentence is usually being shot off like a gun intended to blast anyone else in the vicinity of the person’s ire. People tend to have a narrow view of what their job duties entail, and they […]

Don’t Lose Your Head

There are people who drive you absolutely bonkers (I feel your pain), and make you lose your cool at work. They don’t “do the work” and expect other people to cover for them, they’re constantly running their mouths all day instead of actually doing their work, they play their music through speakers instead of ear […]
