S02E11 - Building Authentic Connections with Gracie Ruth Melendez

The Exceptionally Irresistible Show

How important are deep and meaningful relationships to the long-term profitable sustainability of your business?

VERY!!!

Yes, Very!

Most businesses struggle with customer retention let alone having their customers refer more business their way.
What seems to be the issue?
Well, as Gracie puts it - they don’t really have a relationship with you.

The more you invest your time and energy into the meaningful connection, the less your customers will feel like just another “number” or “account” - people like to feel like people!

Gracie does a great job explaining how we go about building those authentic connections, so what are you waiting for? Hop on to the episode and have a listen…
