The recession challenged many long-held rules about how to boost sales. Instead of slashing prices and cutting customer service, try these counterintuitive tactics:
- Don’t always hire the hotshots. You want salespeople who can thrive in a team environment. Skip over the superstar who always hits top results. Chances are that person doesn’t cooperate with others and is too set in their ways.
- Invest in customer support. Because the next level of new revenue often comes from referals, redouble your focus on after-sale service and customer support. This will keep customers happy and ensure they not only come back for more, but pass along their positive experience to their friends.
- Hold the line on prices. Don’t give your product away. You should compete with service, quality, and uniqueness, value added, not the depth of your discounts.
