Using Social Media To Service Your Customers



Company Twitter and Facebook accounts are for more than spreading the word about a sale or special offer. A business can use this and other social media to enhance its customer service efforts. Even a negative comment or review from a customer is an opportunity to provide amazing customer service and possibly gain new customers. It is not difficult or time-consuming to convert social media into a customer service tool.

A separate corporate Twitter and Facebook account dedicated to customer service is the first step. When a customer tweets or comments to the main corporate account, reply and indicate that the customer service account will be contacting them. The issue can then be resolved through the customer service account via direct messaging, for privacy purposes. The complaining customer will be happy to have the issue resolved and prospective customers will see that your company takes customer service seriously.

Quick response to social media complaints from customers is imperative because it shows a commitment to timely customer service. Respond within five minutes and follow up after researching the issue and developing a potential solution. Provide your name in the response if it is coming from a corporate social media account. Customers like to know that they are dealing with a real person rather than an automated response system. Developing a personal relationship helps to establish trust, which can turn an initially rocky situation into a positive one.

Replies should always be friendly and reveal a desire to provide as much assistance as possible. Showing concern that the customer had a bad experience illustrates that you take the issue seriously. Though this approach is recommended regardless of the type or size of the business, it is even more important if you have a small work at home business because your customers literally put food on your table.

Never dismiss a customer issue or handle customers in an aggressive way. This will turn them off from the start and prevent an ongoing relationship from developing. Do not manipulate customer complaints to make them go away and never attempt to hide them. The social media world is a public one so every posting can potentially be seen by a global audience filled with prospective customers. These folks will be just as unimpressed by such handling of issues as the complaining customer is.

Every customer service issue should be tracked until resolution. Evaluating the response and solution provides insight into how successful the company was in its efforts. Be sure that staff did whatever they could to satisfy the customer and ensure that the professional relationship will continue. Learn from mistakes so they will not be made again.

Social media is a powerful tool that more companies are using every day. Harnessing it for customer service is free and can provide long-term financial benefits. Future sales that could have been lost due to dissatisfied customers will be saved and prospects will be converted to new customers. Taking customer service digital is just one way that savvy business owners are competing in this new world.

Achieving Economic Recovery In A Difficult Market



A recent poll revealed that more than 50 percent of small business owners would not have started their companies in the current economy. The uncertainty and increased difficulty getting the business off the ground would be enough to deter them. However, without small businesses, the U.S. economy is not likely to recover. This means that more people must take the leap to starting a legitimate home business. They will be the saviors of our economy.

Dani Johnson is an entrepreneur who has made millions helping others to achieve their dreams with a home business, advance their current careers, improve personal relationships, and get out of debt. She was once like many Americans: broke and alone with only her drive to succeed keeping her going. When she was living out of her car and had only about two dollars to her name, she knew that something had to change. The last thing Dani wanted was to fall into the drug-ridden, abusive, hopeless lifestyle she had been subjected to as a child.

This amazing woman managed to turn her life around with the help of a will to succeed and advice from an expert. She now operates several businesses and tours the country speaking to others about how they can achieve the success she has realized. As the owner of businesses that started small, Dani realizes the importance of small ventures. They are the lifeblood of the American economy and without them, most of us would be living very different lives.

On a recent segment of her syndicated radio show, Dani discussed the obstacles that many small business owners face. She also explained how the average entrepreneur can overcome them without making a huge investment of time, effort, or money. Nearly anyone can achieve success in this country by increasing knowledge and skills. Dani knows what is required and she is willing to share her proven methods with others.

Success is in the eye of the beholder so what makes one person happy may not be suitable for another. The good thing is that the methods Dani reveals can be customized for any type of business and any level of success. Entrepreneurs learn how to avoid common pitfalls on their way to achieving what they want. They can stop when they are financially comfortable or keep going to achieve previously unimagined wealth.

Take some time to listen to the recording of this live radio segment. Whether you are considering starting a new business or are already established and have not achieved the success you anticipated, you will learn helpful techniques. There is no reason to settle for anything less than the best because you deserve it.

There is nothing like the feeling of satisfaction that comes from starting a venture from scratch. You determine where, and how far, it goes. Dani merely provides the tools to help you get there. Follow her advice and you may soon be appearing on a television show like Secret Millionaire, just as she did a few years ago.

Jeff Usner Focuses On Teamwork In Latest Video



In a new video posted on his website, Jeff Usner, Internet marketing guru and star of ABC television’s Secret Millionaire, discusses the power of teamwork and communication. Usner has relied on his team to help him achieve success and he advocates good communication in everything he does. These are just two of the many tips the online millionaire provides to people who want to be more successful in life. By following his advice, many people have learned how to earn money with a home business that operates online.

Sitting down with the team to determine goals, predict obstacles, and establish agreement is a key part of good communication, says Usner. As the business gets rolling, time may become a precious commodity so creating and getting buy-in to goals up front is the best approach. Everyone on the team should have a good understanding of the objectives and potential challenges. They should be in agreement regarding the action plan and understand their roles within it.

Usner has seen how communicating goals at the start can make the road to success much less difficult. When he first started, he experienced setbacks, but he learned from them and now everything he touches seems to turn into gold. His team is loyal, driven, and devoted, mainly because they are in the loop and on board with what is happening in the business. Being in it for the long haul enables the group to weather the most difficult challenges without anyone jumping ship.

This millionaire is a realist so it is no surprise that he provides a word of warning in his video. He states that even establishing and communicating goals does not guarantee that problems will not arise. A business, even one that operates entirely online, is a process and as such, it can experience various challenges at different stages. The easiest way to handle these is to keep the business on the intended path and regroup when roadblocks present themselves.

During the toughest times, team members may get frustrated or lose sight of long-term goals. That is when leaders must provide the reassurance and inspiration that others need. A leader exemplifies what every team member should strive to be. Leaders who are also skilled in the main focus of their business make the best mentors for up-and-coming team members.

Does Usner know what he is talking about in these videos? Yes, because he is proof that his methods work. He went from being tens of thousands of dollars in debt to becoming a millionaire simply by following the approaches that he now teaches to others. He offers products and events that train people to achieve just as much success as he has online.

Watch the latest video from Usner to get the inspiration you need to keep your business team productive during difficult times. Make goal setting a top priority and never take communication for granted. With this advice in mind, you will establish the best team possible, regardless of what your business is offering.

It Takes Just Seven Steps To Transform Confrontation To A Skill



There are many things that people avoid in life and confrontation is typically one of them. Few people enjoy dealing with even the smallest issues and many steer clear of any type of confrontation whatsoever. Though it may seem wise to avoid an altercation, unsolved problems can damage or destroy personal or professional relationships. Confrontation may be uncomfortable for most people but it is also necessary. By turning it into a skill, it can be used to your advantage.

The reason that most confrontational situations end badly is because the motives behind them are wrong. This leads the situation to be more harmful than helpful. The experience of past confrontations gone awry leads many people to fear future ones. Ironically, this can create an even more explosive situation because the conflict is allowed to fester for weeks, months, or even years. By mastering the skill of confrontation, anyone can turn the uncomfortable situation into a productive meeting.

Before confronting someone, recognize that the goals should be restoring the relationship and establishing a foundation for working together in the future. A confrontation should never consist of listing everything the other person has done wrong or smearing his or her name. Both parties usually have the same goals in their personal and professional relationships so keep these in mind throughout the conversation.

If you think you are afraid to confront someone about an issue, you know how that person is probably feeling about confronting you. Make a decision to forgive before beginning the conversation and start by stating that you do not have any anger. If the person being confronted is on the defensive from the start, the conversation will probably turn into a mutual attack, which never leads to a positive outcome.

Say something nice about the person to establish an encouraging atmosphere. Point out that a coworker is a valuable asset or a partner is a caring and contributing member of the household. Be honest and mention specific strengths that the person possesses. Do not put all the responsibility on this person for the conflict that arose. Own up to your part in the situation and request forgiveness for your role in making things go off track.

This part of the conversation is when things can get difficult. Discuss the conflict and request input regarding its resolution. Ask what you can do to make things better. In some cases, clearing the air and statements of mutual forgiveness may be enough. If corrective action is required, provide encouragement throughout the conversation so the talks do not go awry.

Whether you have a work at home business and are confronting a vendor or employee or are trying to resolve an issue with a spouse, always honor the other person. Be respectful in both your words and actions. People see right through false facades so do not have one. Clear the air to remove negative stress without letting the ego get involved. The result will be a freeing feeling that simply being right will never provide.

Dani Johnson Teaches Us To Keep Our Money In Our Pockets



Did you ever look in your wallet and wonder where your money went? Many of us spend money as soon as we receive it, wasting cash on unnecessary things. This bad habit can land us in a pile of debt that only seems to grow. Changing our behaviors before things reach the point of no return is something we can do, with the right guidance. That is where self-made entrepreneur Dani Johnson comes into play.

Dani offers a home study program called War on Debt, which teaches us to repay our debts without increasing earnings. She provides proven step-by-step instructions that reduce account balances to zero and a debt elimination chart for tracking progress. Thousands of people have used this method to pay off millions of dollars owed to lenders, credit card providers, and other creditors. Dani herself was once in debt and used this technique to quickly repay what she owed.

The economy is not doing us any favors, which makes it more important for us to become debt-free. Dani explains the urgency in terms that will inspire anyone to immediately take action. She also reveals the differences between smart and foolish spending so we can stop ourselves before we spend unnecessarily. There are many ways to live within our means. All we need is a personal financial management expert like Dani to show us what they are.

This Dani Johnson training program pays for itself many times over because it allows us to become, and stay, debt-free. Dani refers to debt as “modern day slavery” and explains how to get free of it. Even people who have discretionary income can find themselves in this bondage due to credit card debt. Those living paycheck to paycheck are much more aware of the situation because they know that any unexpected expense can put them into a bad financial situation.

When there is not enough money to make the minimum payments on debt each month, it is time for a new approach. War on Debt is the answer for many people who have begun thinking that bankruptcy may be their only way out of debt. With the average household carrying thousands of dollars in credit card debt alone, many Americans can benefit from this program.

One cannot put a price on financial freedom. Becoming debt-free often leads to other big changes like deciding to become an entrepreneur. There is nothing like being in control of your financial future by running your own business. Dani is also an entrepreneur and has made millions with her multiple ventures designed to help people from all walks of life.

According to economist Ben Stein, “There is nothing you can buy that feels as good as being in debt feels bad.” A lifestyle that includes debt can cause personal, health, and relationship issues, some of which may be irreversible. Why let things get this bad when an effective solution is staring you in the face? Follow the steps in the War on Debt program to become the master of your debt forever.

Dani Johnson Tackles The Difficult Topic Of Addiction



Addiction is a topic that many people avoid discussing due to the associated stigma. However, many of us find ourselves affected by addiction whether we suffer from it or one of our loved ones does. On her radio show last night, Secret Millionaire Dani Johnson  discussed this touchy subject, let former addicts tell their stories, and asked professionals to provide advice.

Dani is no stranger to addiction, being exposed to it from childhood. She grew up on welfare with abusive parents who did every type of drug. Due to the drug issue, violence was a way of life in her household. Her father used to roll joints every morning and to this day, her mother grows marijuana. Over the years, their drug of choice moved from marijuana to cocaine and then pills, changing the home dynamics.

This environment was a scary place for a child. Dani says she never knew how her parents would react to questions. Their responses would be based on the type of drugs her parents did that day. Drugs were the top priority, leaving Dani and her siblings with little food to eat. This caused the now-millionaire to grow up hating drugs. One of her sisters grew up in a group home as a result of selling drugs and her other sister was also in and out of group homes, married very young, and eventually picked up the drug habits of her parents.

One of the sisters died at the age of 21 as the result of a head-on collision that occurred while she was doing a drug run for her parents. Despite being able to avoid drugs during her youth, Dani ended up doing drugs at the age of 21 while she was homeless and engaged in promiscuous activity. She smoked marijuana every day and even ended up doing cocaine, the drug that had led to so much violence during her childhood.

Many other people are all too familiar with the harm that addiction can cause. Dani believes that addiction comes in many forms and plagues our nation. People deal with addictions to alcohol, pornography, work, and even things. According to Dani, if we can learn from addiction, we can stay away from it. Her guests on the segment shared stories of how they walked the road of addiction and learned to get away.

The stories will shock you because they involve personal destruction, death, and a complete turnaround. Faith is a theme in many of these sagas and its power is undeniable. Hearing the tales of how people tried unsuccessfully to fill a void in their lives is heart wrenching. Listening to how they eventually came upon faith as the answer is inspiring.

It is never too late to address an addiction of any type. You decide what you turn the power in your life over to, so make it something positive, not destructive. Listen to the audio recording of this radio broadcast on Dani’s website and learn how to overcome your addiction to narcotics, work, money, and material things.
