3 Value Bombs
1) Don’t get a customer just to make a sale; keep serving that customer and take care of them.
2) Think of what you can give away today when people are worried – something that can start a conversation today and that may lead to a sale tomorrow, or a month from now.
3) If you do most of the 7 actions, you’re going to add more value to the marketplace than you ever have before.
