Publisher's summary

Popular speaker and consultant Joey Coleman talks to companies all over the country about how to turn a one-time purchase into a lifelong customer.

Coleman's theory of customer loyalty is that it's not about getting the sale: It's about the 100 days after the sale. During that brief window, as quickly as the customer experiences joy, euphoria, and excitement, buyer's remorse sets in. Twenty to 70 percent of newly acquired customers won't make another purchase because a company neglected them at the exact moment they needed affirmation.

Coleman offers a system designed to dramatically increase customer retention and as a result, the bottom line. He identifies eight distinct emotional needs customers undergo during the 100 days following a purchase, whether it's as small as a new drink at Starbucks or as big as a house. If you can understand and anticipate these phases, you can use a myriad of techniques - in-person, email, mail, and video - to cement a long and valuable partnership. For instance:

  • In the "Acclimate" stage, customers need language or totems that make them feel like part of a tribe. Take the software group that had to teach nontechnical users a fairly complex installation process. They turned the installation manual into beautiful puzzle that could be displayed when completed.
  • In the "Adopt" stage, customers should be welcomed to the highest tier of tribal membership with both public and private recognition. For instance, Sephora's VIB Rogue member welcome gift is a metallic card (private recognition) and a members-only shade of lipstick (for public display).
  • By the final stage, "Advocate", customers have embraced tribal membership and are primed to offer powerful referrals. That's why Dropbox waits until a free trial has expired before offering hefty bonuses for referrals.

Drawing on nearly two decades of consulting and keynoting, Coleman provides strategies to increase customer loyalty that listeners can customize based on industry and company size. His methodology has been incorporated by Hyatt Hotels, Zappos, and NASA to huge success. It requires minimal financial investment and will be fun for teams to implement. This audiobook is required listening for managers as well as for sales and marketing teams looking for nuts-and-bolts direction.

Loved it!

Lots of great, actionable items to use for your clients and client retention. This is definitely one of those books to listen to a few times because there is a lot here. And as you would probably expect, lots of surprise bonuses. Some audio books are better than others when listening but Joey made it a great and interesting experience!

Business Changer. Life Changer.

I wish I had this book when I first started our company! There are so many useful nuggets and valuable insights that I would have no idea where to start if it wasn't so clearly articulated in this book. Thank you so much Joey! SignMaster.com will never be the same.

Quick and valuable listen

This was an eye opening book. Maybe a tad bit repetitive but I the author wanted fo these lessons to go to practice. We will be implementing these throughout our company and, boy, there is some work to be done. :)

Great Exercises to Propel Your Business Forward

Joey Coleman gives fantastic real-life business examples of how giving our customers, regardless of the industry we're in, super impactful experiences. He then turns the thought process inward and gives us exercises which show us, and our teams, how we too can connect in meaningful ways with our own customers. The eight stages he outlines in the book truly cover the entire customer journey and I don't see how anyone who makes the effort during these stages can not grow their business in a HUGE way! Creating superfans has never been so straight forward! I HIGHLY recommend this book!
