Mining Your Database for New Business 
Average: 
Your rating: None 
I had an interesting conversation by getting an owner of the roofing company this past week. I ended 
up being leading any seminar for a neighborhood house builders association and in addition the 
conversation involved your Gloucestershire after builders cleaning very best way to find new 
business. I explained that will it really is 80% less costly to get past customers to purchase of your 
current stuff rather than discover new customers. The idea can in addition be simpler to see through 
clients to purchase after builder cleaning Gloucestershire of your own stuff because, assuming you 
does a great task last time, they will know you collectively with know the quality of one's work. 
The owner in the roofing organization raised his hand and also asked how this concept could connect 
with him since most folks simply replace their own roof each and every 15 or even 20 years. He 
features a great point. What do you must do as soon as your products or services has a long "itch 
cycle," which is some time in between when a person usually replaces any product? 
You even now must remain within contact with individuals customers simply because they have 
friends, family, neighbors and other folks they talk to along with you need these phones recommend 
you to individuals people. I suggested which he start once a new year inspection program of most his 
previous work where he would inspect the roof and supply a published assessment of the condition. 
He could furthermore help to make just about any minor repairs such like a lost shingle and clean 
the particular gutters. Following completing the inspection, he could drive round the neighborhood 
and put the flyer in the paper boxes stating "we just completed our annual inspection of the Jones' 
roof also it is still throughout great condition as well as looks nearly as good as new. In case you've 
any kind of concerns concerning the roof, we could be glad for you to give a free, absolutely no 
obligation inspection." 
This marketing program is actually minimal in price in comparison in order to most classic 
advertising applications also it is actually targeting the neighborhood exactly where you've a solid 
testimonial through a happy client and also includes a high probability involving roofs needing 
repair work. 
Every company to collect information about their clients to become able to remain in connection 
with them. According into a Harvard Company study, the main purpose consumers quit purchasing 
from a business is actually perceived indifference. Perceived indifference means which our 
customers don't believe we value these people anymore. This specific is born for you to our not
enough follow-up along with make contact with between purchases as well as our constant focus on 
acquiring a manufacturer new sale. once we shut the deal we move in towards the next one. Our 
past customers needs to be the particular largest portion of our own continuing sells and in addition 
our source pertaining to most of our new business. What we business people require to complete is 
to create doing business with us therefore different, special and memorable which our customers 
just want to buy through us plus they will tell everybody they know to do company using us too. 
So, how will we do that? I believe we do it by not seeking to be much much better than your 
competition nevertheless being remarkably different. How many roofers do you realize that provide 
annual inspections and also to totally clean your current gutters when they tend to be up on your 
current own roof? Would an individual recommend any roofer in which does in which to your 
neighbors and also friends? I would. This kind of buying expertise is what can make your current 
company be noticeable above the actual rest. I possess seen companies who have almost no 
conventional marketing simply because they've built a strong "word of mouth" status inside the 
community. 
When ended up being the final occasion an individual spoken with your own past customers? If it 
continues for you to be over a year, then you need to reach out to them. Any database involving 
customers which have not been spoke with inside a 12 months is ripe for your competition for you to 
steal. Don't allow that happen!! That will be way too expensive for rebuild. 
Remember, they may be your own customers. they just like along with believe in an individual simply 
because you have previously completed enterprise together with them. Anyone are generally 
probably your most likely individual to obtain their own company within the future. Reach out for 
them this week.
