How Small Businesses (Unintentionally) Poison Their Best Relationships

• 1:00PM - 1:30PM • Workshop Room 3

Appreciating favorite past and current customers is something that many small businesses attempt to do to deliver what they think is “client appreciation” and “deepening the relationship” when the reality is that they’re actually being bothersome, ineffective, and worst of all…wasting money. In this entertaining and eye-opening session, Steve uses his 11 years as an entrepreneur and small business owner to flip the script on client appreciation and gifting to show small business owners an entirely new way to execute top-notch customer service, leading to higher quality leads, more referrals, more income, and a more fun way to do business.
