KNOW YOUR CUSTOMERS Today, every company needs to understand the different contexts under which an individual is likely to search online, and access your website or other content you have created or generated.

When you are thinking about how to communicate to your prospects and customers, what is your primary consideration?

Is it to whom you are speaking? In other words, is your first concern to understand whether your prospects are male or female, the ethnic group to which they belong, their income bracket or their age range?

On the other hand, do you first consider your product and service in relation to the challenges and problems that your customers and prospects face? Do you then give thought as to how your offering will assist them with those particular issues?

Or instead, maybe, you think of all the benefits that your particular product or service delivers for your clientele, and use these as the basis to deliver some powerful sales messages to them.

Of course, all of the above are areas upon which one should reflect in order to ensure that your organisation’s communications are as compelling as possible. However, none of them take into account the most important consideration in marketing today. This is a sphere of thinking, which too many companies still completely ignore, when putting together their communications strategy. Maybe, this is because it is beyond the lexicon of traditional marketing. However, in a digital, web enabled world, it is probably the single biggest aspect to contemplate.

MARKET ING Do you remember when the web was first introduced to the world in the 1990’s and in order for it to be accessed, we had to dial in?

Using the web, at that time, was an event. However, after the year 2000, when broadband started to become ubiquitous, the web went from being something to which we had to dial into, in order to go ‘online’, to always being on. As it became easier to access, we started to use it more often.

However, even with broadband, most of us could only access the web from behind a desk, whether at home or at work.

Consequently, although we would use the web to research and buy products and holidays etc., to find out information or communicate with others, our use, in many ways, would still mirror the way we picked up a book, read a paper or watched a TV show. In other words, it was an activity that prevented us from undertaking other tasks.

Then in 2007, Apple launched the iPhone, the first mass consumer smart phone. In the years following the iPhone’s introduction, and with the development of a vast array of

competitor products, the web has gone from a single activity we undertake, to something which we dip in and out of as a seamless part of our lives. From accessing the weather, to getting directions, to seeing what may be going on in a given area, at a particular moment in time, we are constantly flipping between the ‘online’ and ‘offline’ world.

Moreover, with the introduction of new products like ‘Google Glass’ this is a trend that is set to accelerate.

While these developments were taking place the web was changing in another way. With the introduction of Friendster in 2002, MySpace and LinkedIn in 2003 and Facebook in 2004, social networking came of age.

The web went from being a ‘web of content’ to becoming a ‘web of people’. This, combined with the success of smart phone technology, means that today, social platforms are increasingly becoming the single most important channel for staying in contact, communicating and making arrangements with friends and colleagues.

The message is very simple.

24/7 access to the web and

continuous connection to friends and colleagues means, that today, people increasingly do everything ‘in the moment’.

From deciding where to go next during an evening, to having a conversation which instantly triggers an individual to look for a particular product or service about which they were talking, to seeing who is in a given area at any one time, activities are undertaken instantly. We no longer have to wait for someone to be at home to communicate with them, or be behind our desk to undertake a search on particular facts or items.

The context which triggers someone to look for what you do has become the single most important way of ensuring your communications resonate, and are relevant for any particular individual.

Whatever your business, there will be a context to a purchase.

This could be a weekly buying cycle, like the nightclub. There could be seasonal variations e.g., Christmas etc. Alternatively, there may be other events, not affected by time but rather circumstances, in a particular individual’s life.

ONLINE GROWTH

“We know just from our Christmas surveying that online (shopping overseas) will grow this Christmas by 20 per cent.

Domestic retailers online will also grow, but the big difference between the two of them is one has to pay the tax and the other doesn’t. ”

ONLINE SHOPPING IS ABOUT TO GET PRICEY// MAKE the most of your online overseas Christmas present purchases this year, because next year you may be paying 10 per cent more for them.

Major retail companies and the state governments believe the Government will impose the GST on overseas buys as low as $20.

“We certainly think that we are now at the point (where) it’s no longer `Why?’,” said Margy Osmond, chief executive of the Australian National Retailers Association.

“It’s a case of how and when and that governments both state and federal have accepted the need to go ahead with this.’”

The states believe they could The current GST-free threshold for share around $1 billion or more in online buys is $1000.

GST funds each year if the tax was

applied to online shopping.

“It was a very positive discussion, it is clear there are a lot of consensus across the room.

We need to do this,’’ said NSW Treasurer Mike Baird.

The states and the Federal Government will meet again on the issue next March to discuss how the levy can be imposed, given the huge number of overseas purchases arriving by

air and sea at ports around the country.

Mr Hockey has been told by Treasury the collection costs could exceed the revenue.

However, Mrs Osmond said research commissioned by her association calculated a collection cost of $34 million in the first year, and revenue of $997 million.

“And that’s a lot of hospitals, roads and policemen,” she said.

“This is a tax that’s just going to get bigger. We know just from our Christmas surveying that online (shopping overseas) will grow this Christmas by 20 per cent. Domestic retailers online will also grow, but the big difference between the two of them is one has to pay the tax and the other doesn’t.

“And in the end run that really is about jobs. There’s a reason why the National Party at its last federal conference voted for a $20 threshold. Because they are feeling the pain in their local communities from small businesses and small retailers who are missing out.’’

Mrs Osmond said the Government could not be accused of introducing a new tax.

“This is just closing a loophole in the tax law that’s been handing around since nobody shopped online,” she said.

The retailers agree with the findings of an inquiry in 2011 by former Victorian Premier John Brumby, former NSW Premier Nick Greiner and businessman Bruce Carter.

Then-Prime Minister Julia Gillard asked them to review the goods and services tax but their findings were not adopted.

Earlier this month Mr Brumby said: “And the beauty of computer technology and the internet is that in the old days these things might have been costly to administer, but I don’t believe that’s the case now.”

He said the application of a consumption tax on goods bought

on the internet was “a complete non-issue’’ in Britain, the US and Canada, and could help state finances here.

By the time the ball drops in Times Square this New Year’s Eve, there will be more mobile devices on the planet than people.

mobile search MARKETING// Whether or not you put in the time to develop and execute a mobile marketing plan, your business is already mobile.

Why?

Let’s face it. The way consumers search for a great place to eat or shop has fundamentally changed.

Foot traffic and word of mouth used to be enough to fill your business, right?

Because your audience is already reading your emails, viewing your website, and searching for you with their phones.

Not any more, Today you need to be listed across the Internet on search engines, directories and review sites.

Since mobile marketing is a pretty wide category, here we’re going to focus on mobile search.

If you’re still not convinced about the importance of having a mobile search marketing strategy

Specifically, why now is the time to get fully on board, how to get started, and how to keep it going.

– consider the following facts.

75 percent of consumers often choose a restaurant to dine at based on search results.

According to Google and Nielsen, 73 percent of mobile searches trigger additional action and conversion.

97 percent of consumers go online to research products or services in their local area.

49 percent of searches for local businesses occur without a specific business in mind.

70 percent of those consumers who run local mobile searches act on their search within an hour.

A LONG-TERM PERSPECTIVE// On the island of Okinawa there grows a unique species of Chinese bamboo.

This remarkable tree is different from every other bamboo species in that while most trees grow steadily over period of years, the Chinese bamboo tree doesn’t break through the ground for almost the first four years after it is planted.

Then suddenly in the fifth year, an amazing thing happens!

The tree bursts out

10

January 2014 · VNM Magazine

of the ground at an astonishing rate.

Within just 6 weeks it surges to a height of almost 90 feet- that is a staggering two feet plus each day!

You can almost see it growing before your very eyes.

Now I have a question for you.

Did the bamboo tree take 4 years to grow 90 feet or did it take 6 weeks to do so?

T “ Most people fail to see the many long years of hard work with no promise of the future that the entrepreneur has to put in before breaking through“

he Chinese bamboo tree story is a perfect metaphor for the way we have been conditioned to view success- especially entrepreneurial success- in our society.

The media particularly the tabloid media is obsessed with the glorification of the “overnight success” in business. Stories abound of the lightning fast growth of companies like Groupon and Facebook which give us the wrong impression that business success is a quick affair- just come up with a good idea and in a few years your company will be worth billions.

In reality the story is very different.

When we focus solely on the period after a business has broken through into the big league, then it is right to say that success was an overnight occurrence. But that is like watching the bamboo tree during the tear away growth spurt and concluding that it takes just 6 weeks to grow 90 feet.

Most people fail to see the many long years of hard work with no promise of the future that the entrepreneur has to put in before breaking through- Years in which everything that they ever believed was tested to the limit- Times when the whole world seemed to fall apart and nothing worked and the only thing that kept them going was a big vision and faith that it would ultimately manifest.

Make no mistake. Being successful in business is difficult.

It is easy to forget that being an entrepreneur requires one to walk a long, hard and often very lonely road and that it takes an immense amount of mental toughness to succeed.

As Napoleon Hill writes in Think And Grow Rich -when success comes it comes at such a rapid rate that one is left to wonder where it all lay hidden during all those lean years.

Indeed It takes many years to set the foundations and develop the maturity to handle the rapid growth at the end.

That brings us to the second great habit of highly successful entrepreneurs- Having a long term perspective!. Without a long term perspective it is impossible to have the faith to keep going – or as Napoleon Hill says to “keep on keeping on”.

Almost every great and enduring entrepreneurial story (except perhaps Groupon and it is too early to tell) is one of maintaining long term focus during the hard years. Conversely a common thread amongst almost every entrepreneurial failure is a short term focus- a desire for immediate gratification.

Today Starbucks has almost 17 thousand stores globally. Certainly this is one of the greatest business success stories in recent years. Yet for most of its history- for the first 13 years- it had only 5 stores. Then suddenly after 13 long years like the bamboo tree it exploded into growth all over the world.

Conversely a common thread amongst almost every entrepreneurial failure is a short term focus- a desire for immediate gratification.

“

“

Walmart is the world’s largest retailer and it has made the Waltons the richest family on the globe. Yet for the first 7 years it had just 2 stores- a mere 2! It is almost impossible to believe this looking at Walmart today.

In 2010 Apple brought out the Ipad and on the day of launch it sold almost $160 milion dollars of product. No other product in history has ever sold so much at launch. Yet did you know that the ipad was a colossal failure for over 12 years? Its fore runner the Newton was a failure from day 1. It

MYTH!

DONT BE FOOLED BY OVERNIGHT

SUCCESS!

“ Walmart is the world’s largest retailer and it has made the Waltons the richest family on the globe.“

took many years of focus and constant improvement to bring out the ipad.

Or take the case of the Marriot Brothers. It took them nearly 30 years of running root beer stands before they even entered into the hotel business. Today they are the largest hospitality group on planet earth owning many thousands of the finest properties around the globe.

Do not be fooled by the myth of overnight success. It takes many years of sweat and toil and long term planning to achieve the personal growth that sets the foundations for rapid growth.

Ray Kroc of Mc Donalds was once asked how it felt to be an overnight success going from an ice cream machine sales man to a net worth of over 500

million in just 8 years.

Almost without hesitation Kroc replied- “If 25 years of hard work and preparation is not counted then yes I am an overnight success”!

In 1974, the Harvard sociologist Edward Banfield wrote a book titled, “The Unheavenly City” in which he described his findings after one of the most in depth studies on success ever conducted up until that time. Banfield set out with the goal of finding out how and why only certain people achieved financial independence during the course of their lifetimes while over 95 percent barely made it by.

Initially Banfield started out with the hypothesis that factors such as education, family background, intelligence and influential connections played a dominating role.

To his amazement what he finally discovered had nothing to do with these factors. The major reason for success in life he found was having

a particular attitude of mind that he successful. Banfield concluded called a “long time perspective.� that the essential key to success in setting priorities is having a According to Banfield, time long time perspective. perspective referred to how far one projected into the future when The Japanese have mastered this making a decision about what one art of a long term perspective. was going to do or not do in the Companies like Sony, and Toyota present. He said that people who are famous for setting business were the most likely to move up plans that were centuries long. economically were those who took Kiichiro Toyoda is known to have a long term view of the future into set business plans for Toyota well consideration with every decision into the mid twenty-first century they made in the present. in the years before the Second He found that the longer the World War in 1939! While this period of time someone took into may seem far-fetched and almost consideration while planning and crazy, a long term perspective acting in the present, the more makes one more conscious of the likely it was that they would be power and value of every decision they make today.

WARREN BUFFET

Warren Buffet is one of the richest men in the world. The sage of Omaha as he is commonly known is considered the greatest investor of the twentieth century ( and perhaps for the twenty first century too.-the way he is going he may yet see this century out!) Yet until 2007 he drove a 1973 Volkswagen. Even though he could easily afford to buy a decent sized auto manufacturer, Buffet refused to buy a new car because when he viewed it from a 20 year perspective he found that it cost over a million dollars in opportunity cost when compared with an investment in his company Berkshire!

In studying the stories of the most successful entrepreneurs, I have found that they all balanced

a long term perspective with a day to day sense of urgency. And this so is where the real secret for success lies-Merely having a long term perspective without acting urgently in the present leads to the biggest cause of entrepreneurial failure- the habit of procrastination.

On the other hand, a focus on the short term alone without a long term perspective results in a lack of persistence when the inevitable temporary failures and roadblocks surface. Making day to day decisions with a focus on their long term impacts leads to better investment of time and resources and greater long term equity value creation.

So there you have it. Habit 2 of the 7 Habits of Highly successful entrepreneurs- A long term perspective. The next time you are in the process of making a decision about doing something in your business consider its long term impacts. It might save you considerably and lead to a better outcome for your business.

7 REASONS CUSTOMERS ARE DITCHING YOUR BUSINESS

B

efore you go blaming poor performance on a rough economy or high Aussie dollar, it may pay to check you aren’t making mistakes that can lead to customers ditching your company.

Fiona Adler founded Word of Mouth Online seven years ago after trying to find a variety of tradespeople to complete a renovation.

It has since grown into a hub where customers can post reviews of over 300,000

businesses, however she said plenty of companies still make the basic mistake of focusing on new customers at the expense of existing ones.

“Rather than focusing your efforts on chasing new customers, looking at why customers aren’t returning can be eye-opening and may require just a few tweaks to your customer communication to make a world of difference,” she said.

Here are seven of the major reasons your customers might be leaving. Make sure you’re not guilty of them.

1. You’re playing hard to get “If you are too hard to contact, don’t answer the phone, or never have room in your schedule, then customers will get over you,” Ms Adler said.

Not having a website and failing to answer your phone or return messages is a major time-waster for potential customers and they will soon get frustrated.

“Most people lead very busy lives and if a customer puts aside time to call up to make a booking, but can’t lock it in within a reasonable time frame, most are not going to work around you. They are on the phone now calling someone else because clearly it is just too difficult,” she said.

2. They feel unloved Customers often like to be made a fuss of and there are plenty of low-cost, simple gestures that can show people you care.

Ms Adler said sending e-cards on birthdays or discounts on special occasions can make people feel special.

by a better deal,” Ms Adler said.

4. You kept quiet about your best assets People don’t know all the different things you can do unless you tell them. Make sure you keep your customers informed of everything you can do.

5. Assuming you know best Ms Adler said it’s important to research what people want by finding out what they are saying online, what your competitors offer and how to build a more positive reputation.

6. Someone else did it better It may sound like hard work, but keeping customers happy means continually impressing them.

“You need to look good, provide fabulous service, please them with your price points, and always keep things new and fresh,” Ms Adler said.

“If you play old music in your shop or leave a mess, your customers will be bored and unimpressed which of course results in them looking towards greener pastures. Don’t fall into the trap of regarding customers as ‘just a regular’ - (you should) ‘wow’ everyone who walks through your door.”

“It comes down to your customer service attitude, but remembering their name, likes, dislikes and interests can go a long way to show you care,” she 7. They forgot about you said.

3. They were seduced by someone else While businesses are always focused on attracting new business, this shouldn’t be at the expense of your existing ones.

“More importantly, you can safely assume your competitors are trying to woo your customers with fabulous offers too. If you don’t give customers a reason to be loyal, they’ll soon start looking around at other offers and could easily be seduced

People are busy with a lot on their plates, so won’t necessarily remember the last time you fixed their car or gave them a great haircut, Ms Adler said.

“It’s a good idea to call, email, or send a letter reminding them that you looked after them last season or last month, and that you’re available for them again. Unless you follow up, chances are they’ll be looking around for another supplier. Set up a program of regular communication and your customer retention will improve dramatically.”

“It’s important to understand what’s involved in running a business and knowing whether you’re suited to owning a business”

THINGS TO CONSIDER BEFORE BUYING A BUINESS// So you’ve made the decision to start your own business.

Congratulations!

Before you get started there are a few important things you need to consider.

Get your business off to a flying start with our top 5 planning tips, and help your business not only survive, but thrive.

seem like an easy question, but there’s more to owning a business than just working for yourself.

As a business owner, you need good management skills, relevant industry experience, technical skills, a sound knowledge of finance and a long-term vision to grow and succeed.

Consider the following before starting a business: • your reasons for getting into business • will the business satisfy your needs • your level of skills • your business goals • the advantages and disadvantages of establishing It’s important to understand your own business Tip #1 - Decide if you’re ready to what’s involved in running a • time requirements and start your own business business and knowing whether commitments.

Asking yourself if you’re ready may you’re suited to owning a business. Your business has a better chance

• what product or service you will provide? is your idea feasible?

• how will you protect your idea?

• is there a market for your product or service?

• what skills do you need?

• who are your competitors?

• what difference will you bring to the market?

• do you have the financial capacity to own a business?

Putting the effort into researching your idea will help you determine whether you can turn your idea into a profitable business.

new business or buy an already established business. Both options have their challenges and benefits.

The benefits of starting your own business include: You get to be your own boss, you have total creative control, you have flexible hours, it generates a new source of income and it can be rewarding to watch your business grow.

The challenges of starting your own business include: It can require a significant amount of time and money, you need to research the market place and you need to establish your contacts.

The benefits of buying an established business or franchise include: The business already has stock, there is an existing customer base, the business already has an established income stream, established suppliers and with franchises an established brand.

The challenges of buying an established business or franchise include: It can require a significant amount of money, you can inherit a poor public image from the previous owner, you may not have as much control, especially when purchasing a franchise and it may not be as flexible as with starting your own business.

Tip #3 - Choose your type of business and business structure Once you’ve established that your business idea has potential, you then need to decide what type of business to start, and whether you’ll open a brand

Depending on what type of business you want to start, you may not need a physical business location. Home-based and online businesses are becoming increasingly popular and offer many advantages.

of succeeding if there is a good match between your idea, and your skills, interests and motivations.

Tip #2 - Conduct market research into your business idea Before you venture into your new business it’s important to conduct some market research to see if your idea is feasible.

You need to find out if there is a need for your product or service and who your competitors are, their strengths and weaknesses and how your business will differ from theirs.

Some questions to consider are:

Aside from choosing what type of business to start, you also need to decide what type of business structure external link you’ll need.

Business structures include: sole trader - an individual trading on their own partnership - an association of people or entities running a business together, but not as a company company - a legal entity separate from its shareholders trust - an entity that holds property or income for the benefits of others.

There are advantages and disadvantages for each type of structure and it’s important to consider whether your activity is a business or a hobby.

Each structure can have different tax implications, so you may want to consult a professional business advisor, accountant or solicitor for advice.

The size and nature of your business, compliance requirements, insurance and establishment costs are common factors that may influence your choice of business structure.

Tip #4 - Write a business plan for your new business.

Investing time and focus in creating a detailed, well-structured business plan will give you direction and help your business become a success.

Your business plan is essential for your business. It sets the direction for your business and keeps you on track once it’s up and running. You’ll also need a business plan for securing finance for your business.
