SUMMARY:Encore Session: Mastering the Customer Journey from Onboarding to Impact
DESCRIPTION:Join AWBC and GrowthWheel International Inc. for an encore session: Mastering the Customer Journey from Onboarding to Impact. \nAs small business advisors\, we want to give all of our clients a professional service experience. A challenge is that every meeting is different and every client must be serviced differently. \nHowever\, the real problem is how we can create a client journey that is both flexible and standardized at the same time. The truth is that trust is created both through consistency and customization. That’s why we need to be able to take clients through an individual client journey rather than a generic client journey. \nIn this workshop\, you will discuss with other advisors how to create high-quality customer journeys. \nThe takeaway from this workshop: \n\nHow to onboard clients for future success\nHow to assess and triage clients\nHow to define the scope of work\nHow to track and report results to all stakeholders\n\nIf you didn’t get a chance to connect with GrowthWheel at the Leadership Conference\, here is your chance to learn best practices on mastering the customer journey! \nClick Here to Register
