Top Ways to Build Customer Loyalty

Top Ways to Build Customer Loyalty

There are so many different ways to build customer loyalty in your business, but it generally boils down to whether or not your customer has a positive experience when interacting with your business. Once you can build that loyalty, you’ll have customers that are willing to go out of their way for your business.

The best part is they’ll show this support and love in a variety of ways. Whether it be through glowing reviews on social media, wonderful recommendations to friends and family, or even through continuing to purchase your product/service, your customers will stand by you.

Without these customers, your business, brand, or idea will struggle to gain steam and grow into the powerhouse you imagined it could be. That’s why we like to call these customers your “VIP customers” or “brand champions,” but you can call them whatever you’d like.

Why Do We Need Loyal Customers?

One of the things we’ve heard many business owners ask is, “Why should I care how loyal they are? I already made money off them.” First off, it’s not all about making money off of them. Like we mentioned above, you also have to provide a positive experience.

Secondly, it’s not just one loyal customer you’re dealing with. With the way customers shop today, one loyal customer turns into another loyal customer -- which eventually grows into a loyal customer base that keeps your business running and growing.

Lastly, you can’t have customers that think bad about your business. Again, this isn’t just one customer because that customer will multiply. Eventually, you’ll have a lot of customers that are avoiding your business due to warnings from other customers.

In a recent study by Jay Baer, he concluded that 92% of consumers trust recommendations from friends and family, while 70% trust reviews from anonymous consumers online. This high-trust rate means you need to rethink your strategy when interacting with customers.

That’s why it’s important to treat every customer your best, that way you’re constantly building and nurturing a culture of loyal customers.

So, How Do You Build Customer Loyalty?

Most business owners expect loyal customers to come as a result from being open for a long time or just through luck alone. Instead, loyal customers come as a result of hard work, dedication, commitment, and genuine gratitude toward the customer.

If you’ve been trying to build a loyal customer base, but haven’t had the luck you were hoping for, we’ve got several tips that will help you on your way:

1.    Ask Your Customers

Never be afraid to reach out to your customers or clients and ask them for feedback about how they were treated, how their experience was, and what your business could’ve done better to provide a more memorable experience.

This can be done through surveys or by having a specified place on your website to accept suggestions/feedback. You can also make use of those emails you’ve been collecting and start a campaign. If customers truly want to see change in your company, they’ll let you know.

Ignite that change, and you’ll start to gain trust!

2.    Respond to Reviews

While customers like to read the reviews of other customers before purchasing a product or signing up for a service, they also like to know how the business responded to that review -- if they responded to it. That’s why it’s important to always monitor your reputation online and respond to customers in a timely manner.

The key is to always stay positive when responding, always apologize, and always present a solution to the issue. This will show them that you’re here for them, not for yourself.

3.    Incentivize Referrals

If you were wondering why you aren’t getting that many referrals, it might be because your customers aren’t being pushed to doing so. Sometimes, that’s all they need -- a little incentive to make it that much more worth it for them.

Get creative with this, but it doesn’t have to be anything crazy. Give them each a discount on their next purchase, or a free meal the next time they come in. Something that won’t cost you that much on the back-end, but something that they’ll appreciate nonetheless.

4.    Loyalty Programs Work

In addition to incentivizing referrals, introducing a loyalty program can help increase your ability to build trust with customers. Offer a free meal after the purchase of five or a free item after spending a certain amount -- trust us, it works.

Those people that would normally only visit you once will suddenly start visiting you monthly and even weekly. This gives you more time to nurture their experience with your business and keep them interested in doing business with you long-term.

5.    Give Back to the Community

Especially in a day and age like this, it’s extremely important to give back to your community and show that you’re more than just a business -- you’re here to help make life better for others in any way possible.

When there’s a local event going on, find a way to participate. If there’s a charity you have respect for, make a donation. You should always be looking for new ways to give back and show your business’ true colors so the rest of the community can see with their own eyes.

6.    Customer Service Is Key

Of course, there’s nothing customers like more than being treated well. When you interact with a customer, you have to make them feel special and turn all your attention towards them. If you don’t, they’ll easily take their business elsewhere and talk bad about yours in the process.

Take the time to train your employees correctly and make sure you’re following all the right protocols when interacting with customers. You should also reassess those protocols often to make sure they meet evolving standards.

7.    Consistency Helps

Another thing that’s essential to building a loyal customer base is being consistent. You can’t expect to keep a customer engaged with your business if you can’t consistently give them good products or service. They want to rely on you long-term, but only if you can prove it to them.

To solve this, make sure you and your employees are always following the best practices and protocols we discussed in the previous section. You should also ensure your employees know how to handle themselves in a high-pressure situation to avoid any mishaps.

8.    Quality Over Everything

Last but not least, focusing on quality never hurts anyone or any business. It’s what the customers want, it’s what they expect, and it’s the only thing you should think about delivering when they need you.

Don’t cut any corners and always find ways to improve your company -- from top to bottom. Every little improvement will benefit the overall experience by the customer, so don’t take anything for granted here.

Don’t Stop There!

Once you start implementing the right strategies, you’ll see loyalty rise with customers. They’ll start engaging with your business more often and be more willing to spend their hard-earned money at your business.

If you want to enhance your connection with customers, social media can be a huge help. Your customers are already on there, they already use it frequently, and they likely already want you on there. Furthermore, it gives you an opportunity to show your business’ true colors and personality.

Ultimately, you have to figure out what your customers want and what they expect out of a company like yours. Once you can figure that out, you’ll know what needs to be done to satisfy them day-in and day-out.

Of course, you can always contact Consultants In-A-Box for more strategies, tips, advice, and assistance when building customer loyalty in your business. We can’t wait to help you find success with your customers and build a lasting relationship with them!

 

Signs It’s Time For Payroll Help

Signs It’s Time For Payroll Help

New business owners are faced with a wide range of difficulties and obstacles when getting their feet on the ground, but most people won’t properly prepare themselves for the payroll process. It might seem easy in the beginning, but you’ll eventually be screaming for payroll help as your business grows.

The more employees you hire, the more difficult it becomes to manage and maintain your daily, weekly, and monthly payroll challenges. It’ll get to a point where you simply don’t have enough time in the day to focus on your responsibility as owner AND manage your company’s payroll.

While most owners find themselves in a pickle when forced to decide between the two, Consultants In-A-Box is here to change that perspective and provide reasonable solutions to your payroll challenges. We’ll become the payroll assistant you’ve always wanted!

When Is It Time for Help?

We assist you with every part of the payroll process -- not just the part where you pay your employees. New hire paperwork, W-2s, quarterly payroll taxes, and much more are required on a consistent basis, taking away even more of your time.

We’ve helped many companies -- just like yours -- solve their payroll issues and we understand the biggest warning signs when it comes to needing payroll help. Let’s take a look at some of those warning signs, that way you can avoid disaster with your own business.

1.   Late Payday & Tax Forms

Paying your employees late because you were too busy with other work or didn’t have enough time to process them sooner is unacceptable as a business owner. Your employees depend on receiving their hard-earned money on-time and won’t settle for anything less.

While timing is important with paychecks, it’s also important to the employee’s W2s and 1099s, which need to be sent out in a timely manner so the employee can file their taxes properly. Failing to send them on-time will surely lose your employee’s trust.

2.   Payroll Errors

Errors in payroll are never welcomed and put your employee in a tough spot. Spelling their name or address wrong on the check can cause delays when cashing the check. Furthermore, the wrong amount in the check leads to distrust and more delays.

If errors are plentiful when processing payroll, consider finding a payroll assistant or software. They’ll help cut down on the mistakes and ensure everything is handled properly and accurately.

3.   Missed Tax Deadlines

Constantly missing tax deadlines can result in some serious fees and charges against your business. These are an important part of owning a business and something most people aren’t aware of before they start a business.

The last thing you need is the IRS on your back. Talking with a professional ensures you know exactly how much to pay, when to pay it, and how to pay it so your business remains in good-standing with the IRS.

4.   Depleted Cash Flow

Cash flow is essential when processing payroll. Without the money, you can’t pay your employees. This is the worst case scenario when doing payroll because it brings the entire process to a halt -- even if you’re ready to complete it.

If you’re having issues in this area, payroll software can help you stay better organized and ensure you have the necessary funds when you need them. You won’t need to rely on loans to pay your employees anymore and can start to build a level of financial stability.

5.   Hourly Employees

Hourly employees present a wide range of difficulties without the right tools or resources. Especially in today’s digital world, technology is your best friend when taking control of your hourly payroll. If you’re having a tough time accurately keeping track of hourly employees, a payroll software or assistant helps you stay diligent.

At the end of the day, payroll should be an easy process for the owner that requires minimal work and more reviewing than anything. You shouldn’t be running into issues left and right. If you are, it’s time to search for some help -- and there’s no shame in that. It’s a smart move!

Are You Ready to Save Your Payroll?

A quality, smooth, and accurate payroll process is essential to a business. It keeps your financials in order, it keeps you prepared, and leads to more employee loyalty -- which benefits your business in so many more ways.

If you need help keeping everything in check, there are three quality options you can consider immediately -- outsourced professional, payroll software, or both.

The payroll software will make things easier for anyone, whether you’re taking care of the payroll yourself, already have a payroll team, or plan on hiring one. Outsourcing your payroll to a professional might cost money each month, but it’ll add time to your day and accuracy to your books.

Of course, the combination of both is what puts your business in the best position to succeed. Choosing a professional who knows your payroll software is important, but having a professional with their own solution is even better.

When you’re ready to save your payroll and prove to your employees that your company can be a reliable place to work, contact Consultants In-A-Box today to be connected with one of our highly-rated professionals.

 

Grow Your Sales By Selling Gift Cards Online

Grow Your Sales By Selling Gift Cards Online

In 2020, who would’ve imagined that selling gift cards online would be one of the hottest trends for both brick-and-mortar shops and ecommerce sites? Believe it or not, it’s an excellent way to increase revenue and keep customers engaged with your business during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Unfortunately, most businesses either don’t know how to sell gift cards online or simply haven’t thought of the idea yet. If this sounds like you, you’re not alone! Many businesses just like yours have struggled to make it happen, but Shopify is making it extremely easy to get started.

Below, we’re going to teach you everything you need to know about using Shopify to sell gift cards online. We’ll discuss how it works, why you should do it, how to get started, and how to enhance the experience for both your company and its customers.

How Does Selling Gift Cards Online Work?

Before the COVID-19 pandemic was an issue, many brick-and-mortar businesses weren’t selling online and had no intention of it. With the COVID-19 pandemic only worsening throughout 2020, many businesses are being forced to either start selling online or close up shop.

No one wants to see our beloved local and small businesses shut down, which is why Shopify has made it so simple to sell gift cards online. This is how it works:

  • You create a simple online store with Shopify’s easy build features
  • You share your online store with customers so they can add gift cards to their cart
  • Customers receive the gift card via email
  • You track the purchased gift cards and wait for them to be redeemed in the future
  • The gift cards never expire, but you receive the funds immediately

Since many customers might find it difficult to shop your brick-and-mortar store right now, you can easily give them the option of shopping online now to shop in-store later. It’s easy for both you and the customer, which adds to the excitement.

Benefits When You Sell Gift Cards Online

As you might imagine, you open the door to a wide range of possibilities when you sell gift cards online. With so much to gain, you’ll be wondering why you haven’t considered this months ago.

If you’re still on the fence about whether or not your business can benefit from this venture, we completely understand. To help you see the amazing opportunity in front of you, here are some of the ways it can help your business:

  • Brand Awareness. Especially during today’s unique times, interacting with your customers is extremely important whether you’re open or closed.
  • Increased Sales. Anytime you introduce a revenue stream you weren’t entertaining before, you open the door for more sales each month.
  • Useful Data. When observing your customer’s online buying behaviors, you gain useful insight into what they want and how they want it.
  • Cash Flow. Customers might not be purchasing products right this moment, but you’re still receiving money now for their business later.

Those are just some of the amazing benefits you receive when adding gift cards to your online store. It’s super easy to do, doesn’t require anything to get started, and gives immediate benefits to both you and the customer!

Getting Started With Shopify Today

If you’re ready to give your shoppers the option to buy online gift cards, you’re making a smart choice. We’ve been talking a lot about how easy it is to get started, but what better way to prove it to you than by explaining it.

You can get started in just five easy steps -- that’s right, just five! Let’s take a look at what’s needed for each step of the process.

1.   Start a Free Trial on Shopify

First thing’s first, you need to get started with a Shopify account. It costs $29/month, but they’re giving businesses a free two-week trial before being charged anything. This gives you enough time to establish yourself before having any costs.

When you set up your account, you’ll need to select your domain name. It’s where shoppers will go when looking for your online store. By default, it will look like ‘yoursite.myshopify.com’ unless you purchase a domain, but it’s not necessary. (‘yoursite’ would be replaced with the site name you choose).

It’s important to note that you will need to enter credit card details and select a plan in order to get started, but you won’t be billed until after the free trial. You’ll also receive an email before the trial ends as a reminder.

2.   Create an Online Gift Card

Now that you officially have a Shopify account, you’ve opened the door for customers to find you online. The next step is creating the digital gift card that shoppers will buy, which you can do by clicking Products > Gift Cards.

Making the online gift card your own is easy, but you’ll need to edit five main things before it’s completed -- the title, description, media, denominations, and availability. Let’s take a closer look:

  • Title - you can either choose to be detailed in your description or minimalistic, but it’s always a good idea to include your company name and something COVID-19 related
  • Description - this is your opportunity to really connect with your customers. Let them know you feel their pain and give them reasons why they should buy online gift cards from you.
  • Media - creating a custom image for your online gift card is essential in today’s digital world. Customers want something that’s appealing and stylish.
  • Denominations - when customers go to purchase an online gift card, they’ll have several different options in terms of amounts. Keep it simple because they can always purchase multiple.
  • Availability - this feature allows you to choose where you want to make this online gift card available. For now, we’ll be selecting ‘Online Store’

Once you have the gift card created, you’re one step closer to launching your store and seeing the revenue pile in. As of right now, it’s always good practice to double check your work and make sure you’re happy with the design of your gift card.

3.   Personalize & Brand Your Online Store

Now that you have a gift card to sell, it’s time to personalize your online store so it matches the rest of your brand. This is a vital part of the process because your customers need to recognize the online store as yours.

To do this, select Sales Channels > Online Store > Themes and select the theme you’d like to use. There are a wide range to choose from, so take your time and select one that fits your business the most.

Clicking Customize allows you to edit the theme to your liking.

Inside the edit screen, you’ll see a list of sections on the left side and then a visual of what your site looks like in the middle. You can switch between different pages on the top, as well as different screen sizes (mobile and tablet also offered).

As you go through and edit your online store, here are some things to keep in mind: 

  • You can remove sections on the left to start with a clean slate or you can hide them to add back later.
  • It’s best to start with an image overlay with text as an intro to your online store. Upload an image that represents your company well.
  • Add a Featured Product section to easily and clearly display your gift card to shoppers. You can allow them to purchase multiple by turning on the Quantity Selector.
  • Add your logo to the Header area of the store, as well as other pages if you want to create an About Us.
  • Add social media links and buttons to the site wherever possible, as well as a place for them to contact you via email or phone.
  • Go to Settings > Payment Providers to allow Shopify to automatically capture payment for orders.
  • You can play around with adding different sections, but this is all you’ll need for an easy-to-build online store.

With your store in-tact, you can officially say you own an online store to supplement your brick-and-mortar business. This is the start of something new and can be the venture that saves your business during these difficult times.

4.   Share the Store With Customers

Now you’re ready to start bringing customers to your online store. In order to give them access, you first need to take away the password protection on the site. Go to Online Store > Preferences and turn off the Enable Password option.

Once you complete that step, your site will be visible to anyone that enters the URL to your online store. Start marketing it all over social media, notify your customers via email, and spread the news through word of mouth. Make sure everyone knows where to find your online store.

5.   Manage Your Sales

One of the amazing features on Shopify is the ability to easily track orders and gift cards that have already been purchased. This makes it easy to verify when someone wants to use a gift card by checking the date it was purchased, as well as manage how much the customer has remaining.

Enhancing Your Gift Card Experience

There’s a lot to gain when you start selling online gift cards, but this is only the start of this journey for you. There are a wide range of things you can do to enhance the experience for both you and the customer as you start to gain traction with your online store.

Here are some ideas to keep your creative juices flowing on how to continue expanding: 

  • Use Canva’s gift card maker to create a personalized image for your gift cards. The more unique and engaging this is for the customer, the better it is for your business.
  • Reward loyal customers by discounting gift cards with a higher price tag on them. It incentivizes them to buy the big gift cards, putting more money in your pocket now.
  • If you want to easily market your gift cards on someone else’s site or make them available on your existing site, use the Buy Button channel when selecting the availability of the gift card.
  • Don’t hesitate to start bringing your other products and services to your online Shopify store. There’s so much to do, including an About Us page, Staff page, advertising opportunities, customize emails, and more.

Getting started with selling gift cards online is easy and the opportunities are endless. If you need help working your way through this process without difficulty, contact Consultants In-A-Box to connect with one of our trusted professionals immediately.

We look forward to helping your business offer customers an online store and online gift cards!

 

How To Choose The Right Bookkeeping Software

How To Choose The Right Bookkeeping Software

Most small business owners aren’t considered experts at financial management. Since your business’ financials never stop, having to manage this yourself with ineffective tools can be frustrating and time-consuming. It’s what makes small business bookkeeping such a dread.

Finding the right bookkeeping software for your company is essential to maintaining an organized environment that limits mistakes and confusion. Below, we’re going to discuss some of the most important factors when determining the best bookkeeping software -- that way you can make a more-informed decision.

Finding the Best Bookkeeping Software

First and foremost, you need to understand what your business needs. Some businesses need something simple, while others need something complex. Some companies might be looking for something that can support both if they plan on scaling the business in the future.

Either way, you need to have a deep understanding of this before you start looking at software or consultants. It’ll help you narrow down your options initially so you can focus on the things that separate the best bookkeeping software from everything else.

In order to determine that, there are five major factors you need to consider -- customization, simplicity, accessibility, customer support, and integration. To limit any confusion with these factors, we’ll break them all down one-by-one for you.

1.   Customization & Personalization

When it comes to small business bookkeeping, every business is unique and they all have their own way of operating. In order for a bookkeeping software to be of any assistance to your needs, it needs to be flexible enough to customize and personalize to your liking.

Whether you have hourly employees or contractors working for you, need assistance managing income and expenses, or need general help when it comes to taxes, your bookkeeping software should have a solution for you.

2.   Ease of Use is Crucial

No small business owner wants to invest company funds into a bookkeeping software that provides more confusion and frustration than it does assistance. In fact, it would defeat the purpose of investing in bookkeeping software to begin with.

Your new software shouldn’t have a steep learning curve for any business owner or accounting team. It should streamline the process and save you loads of time in the process. If you’re receiving anything less than that from your bookkeeping solution, it’s time for new software

3.   Accessibility At All Times

Much like you want the software to be simple, you also want it to be accessible. This means having the ability to view your books and financial insight whenever or wherever you need to -- especially since most small business owners are constantly on-the-go.

It doesn’t matter what device you’ve grown to love over the years, your new bookkeeping software should be supported on it. Phones, tablets, laptops, PCs, you name it!

4.   Excellent Customer Support

Any product, service, or software needs excellent customer support. Nothing is perfect and you’re sure to run into an issue, question, or comment at some point. Since bookkeeping is a stressful process in general, having courteous and helpful customer service agents by your side is a must.

That also means having easy access to these agents, whether it be live chat, phone call, email, by mail, in-person, or through social media. The more options, the better!

5.   Integration At It’s Finest

Over the years, every small business owner has become attached to certain software, apps, tools, and resources when running their business. Having a bookkeeping software that easily integrates with your existing operations is essential to finding one that works for you.

When you have all your technology working together, it makes everything that much easier for you and your team. Since putting yourselves in a position to succeed is crucial to achieving success, you’ll be in a good spot moving forward.

Now that you know what to look for, put that knowledge to good use and find a bookkeeping software that works well with your business. Contact Consultants In-A-Box today to learn more about our solutions and how we can help you take control of your business’ financials.

Six Reasons For Outsourcing Payroll

Six Reasons For Outsourcing Payroll

The vital role outsourcing plays in business growth cannot be downplayed. A lot of major players in the marketing industry have long taken advantage of these ‘outside expert services’ to streamline and boost the productivity of their business.

The strategic services of outsourcing companies have been utilized in times past, and if success stories are any indication, it is quite beneficial to hand out some core responsibilities to these outsourcing firms—and that includes payroll.

We, at Consultants-In-A-Box, will be exploring some of the reasons why you need to outsource payroll to an expert firm. But first things first.

What are Payroll Outsourcing Services?

Payroll outsourcing services, like Consultants-In-A-Box, are employed by companies to handle their payroll process in an efficient and specialized manner. As a payroll provider, these outsourcing companies bring their expertise and efficiency in procuring payroll to the parent company.

Why Do You Need A Payroll Outsourcing Service?

There are several beneficial reasons to hire the services of an expert payroll service. We’ll be looking at 6 of them.

Less Time Calculating The Payroll Of Every Worker.

An employee in charge of payroll will always have a long, rough day before or after payment day. He or she would have to constantly and accurately calculate the net salary of every worker in the organization.

They’d have to calculate and remove the taxes, include benefits such as child supports, pension, healthcare, transportation allowance, and other additions or deductions. And that’s just one person!

When you factor in the amount of time that he or she would complete the task, ensuring all your staff is accounted for, it’s going to take a huge slice of the week.

Contracting this specific task to an expert payroll outsourcing firm is beneficial for you in the long run.

Limit Common Payroll Mistakes.

When it comes to payroll and calculating workers’ paycheck, mistakes do occur, and this negatively impacts the business or the employees directly. When a worker’s work hours aren’t correctly inputted to calculate his gross salary, he or she would notice a decrease in their pay.

Also, when tax deductions are properly removed, a huge chunk of the worker’s salary is removed. This may breed resentment towards the company, and if they take legal actions against your company, they’d be right to do so.

To avoid mistakes like this, you need a reliable payroll outsourcing service to take the weight off your shoulder.

Professionals With Relevant Experience In Payroll.

When it comes to payroll, no one does it better than a professional company set up for just that purpose. They understand the many complexities of payroll processing and still deliver the very best. Some of their duties include:

  • Submitting year-end and quarterly payroll taxes.
  • Adjusting the correct tax deductions by updating W-9 forms.
  • Handling healthcare, social security, and FICA deductions.
  • Background knowledge of national regulations as regards with payroll deductions.
  • Ensuring state and federal tax laws are strictly adhered to.

Security Of Payroll Data.

Hiring the services of professional payroll providers guarantees you of payroll data safety. Most companies still struggle with issues ranging from embezzlements, identity theft, and intentional tampering of records.

Hiring a payroll outsourcing company means your confidential records are safe and secured away from prying eyes inside your company.

Compliance With Government Laws.

When you’re managing several workers at once, having to track their allowance and deducting federal, state, as well as healthcare taxes can be really tasking, and mistakes may occur.

To remain on the side of the law, it is important to hire the services of a payroll provider to remit accurate taxes and returns to the government.

Generating Reports For Company Use.

After a payment period, the records containing the pay earned by employees, including tax, miscellaneous deductions are documented and kept for future use. When you’re making use of an in-house staff for this, mistakes may occur and negatively impact your business.

The services of seasoned payroll providers should be hired to accurately analyze and document these reports.

When with all this information at your fingertips, the need for an outsourcing payroll company arises. Consultants-In-A-Box, since our inception, has prided ourselves in delivering the best payroll service that your business needs at the moment. Contact us today to take advantage of our awesome packages.
