Be ingenious, be creative 💡

Here's a short story on problem solving using different approaches 👇

A class teacher once asked his students, each to give 2 numbers that will equal to 5.

And the catch is, one must not repeat the same equation someone has already mentioned 😒

At the end of the exercise, every child was able to sum up individually his or her math.

These are some of many results:
✅ 3 + 2 = 5
✅ 10 - 5 = 5
✅ 5 × 1 = 5
✅ 12 - 7 = 5
✅ 20 ÷ 4 = 5
✅ 5 + 0 = 5
✅ So, it continues ..........................

Moral of this story is "There're so many paths to success, find your own unique way of solving people's problem and you'll eventually turn out great....

Be a solutions person 💪

How do you look at tasks and problems from different angles to deliver diverse solutions? 🙄

Let's see in the comments section 👇🏾

Cheers to the weekend ✌️

A short story to boot:

1. Nokia refused Android and wasn't so relevant in the phone market anymore.
2. Yahoo rejected Google and stopped being the biggest search engine.
3. Kodak refused digital cameras and was stunted as a photography powerhouse.

Lessons:
1. Take CHANCES.
2. Embrace the CHANGE.
3. If you REFUSE to CHANGE with TIME, you'll become OUTDATED.

Improvement and innovative thinking is the only way to stay relevant in any walk of life 🤔

Wishing you all a productive Thursday 💪

Did you know 🙄

SALES and REVENUE can be increased through Cross Selling and Cross Merchandising in a Retail Store.

Cross involves offering complementary or to what they are already purchasing while Cross involves displaying products together in a visually appealing way 😎

Cross selling generally is applicable in all sales related and cuts across all sectors💡

💥 McKinsey found that cross-selling can increase a business’s revenue by 20% and its profitability by 30% 💥

How 🤔

In a retail store, cross merchandising can be achieved through various techniques such as:

✅ Creating themed displays: Retailers can create visually appealing displays that show how products can be used together or are related in some way.
⭐ For example, a clothing store could create a display featuring a complete outfit, including clothing, shoes, and accessories.

✅ Using signage and promotions: Retailers can use signage and promotions to highlight complementary products and encourage customers to purchase them together.
⭐ A good example is bundling products together at a price by displaying batteries🔋alongside toy cars.

✅ Training staff: Retailers can train their staff to recommend complementary products to customers based on their individual needs and preferences.
⭐ For example, providing adequate product for staff and customer .

✅ Analyzing data: Retailers can use data to identify which products are commonly purchased together and use this information to optimize their merchandising strategy.
⭐ Using software to ascertain and track customer's purchasing behavior.

Why 😒

The goal of cross selling is to increase the average order value (AOV) and the number of sales a can make with each customer.

Cross-selling can help businesses:
** Increase average order value.
** Boost revenue from existing customers.
** Improve customer satisfaction.
** Encourage customer loyalty and repeat purchases.

Overall, cross selling and cross merchandising are powerful tools for sales and improving the overall experience for customers. By positioning products together and encouraging customers to make additional purchases, retailers can growth and increase customer .

I hope this resonates with my fellow sales especially those in and space.

How to Leverage Customer Pain Points to Drive Sales and Improve Revenue

Customer experience is directly proportional to revenue.

A customer’s pain point is a problem that the customer or prospect faces in the marketplace. It could be a problem with finding a product or service that they need desperately, or a problem with your products or services after they’ve purchased it from you.

Discovering what the customer needs and realizing the urgency to find a solution can help you refine your product or service to meet your customers’ prerequisites.

Customer pain points can be problems experienced at any point in their customer journey. If you identify these problem areas and come up with corresponding solutions, you’re likely to generate more customers and retain the ones you already have.

There are four different types of pain points:

Financial - These include issues related to money. The most common is having to buy a product they need, but which is expensive. An interesting example would be how most businesses are concerned with the rising costs of making calls through landlines. A good solution to use would be a small business VoIP system that can make those calls and reduce costs.

Productivity - These are problems that arise because products or services are not user friendly and are a waste of time. The customer finds them lacking comfort and convenience.

Process - Customer concerns with internal processes of your business, like how your sales team collaborates with your digital marketing team. The workforce management process and related software are the best way to handle pain points related to internal processes. ‍

Support - This is perhaps the most critical type of pain point. These occur towards the end of the customer journey. You’ve managed to convert a prospect into a customer, but they remain dissatisfied with their purchase. Perhaps the purchase itself or the after sales support is the issue. This is a customer service pain point.

In conclusion, you can't land a sale without addressing customer's problems and providing solutions to add value.
