Employee Or Customer? A New World Of Employee RetentionTony Hsieh, former CEO of Zappos, once said of his business: “Our number one priority is company culture. Our whole belief is that if you get the culture right, most of the other stuff like delivering great customer service or building a long-term enduring brand will just happen naturally on its own.”How Much Does Employee Retention Impact Customer Satisfaction?One school of thought says that higher retention drives better performance.What is customer retention?Customer retention is a metric that businesses use to measure customer loyalty over time and gauge overall success. To boost customer retention, companies will implement various tactics to reduce the number of customers lost in a period and better their experiences to ensure that they remain loyal to the business.How do you keep customers coming back to work with you?How do you calculate your customer retention rate?To calculate the customer retention rate, you have to divide the total number of customers from new customers by the number of customers acquired at the beginning of the period. The formula should look like this:(Total # of Customers at the end of the Period - New Customers Acquired)/(Customers at the Start of the Period = Customer Retention Rate" How to Retain Customers1. Create a strong onboarding experience2. Provide personalized customer experiences.3. Build trust with your customers.4. Implement a customer feedback loop. 5. Maintain a customer communication calendar. 6. Send a company newsletter. 7. Start a customer education program. 8. Offer unique services. 9. Start a customer retention program.Thank you for listening to the brews and business podcast!Get to know the ins and outs of everyday small business owners as we share our stories and experiences with you. #letsgrowtogetherBraedon KruseSooner Marketing Solutions"Marketing Solutions That Deliver Sooner Results"Marketersoonermarketingsolutions.comAbel RodriguezARC Outdoorsmen"Creating & Maintaining Your Outdoor Living"Ownerarcoutdoorsmen.comChance JonesThreaded IndustriesOwnerthreadedindustries.comStone ShewStoneCo DownFlo Seamless Guttering"Got Flow?"Ownerguttersok.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/brews-business--5630487/support.

What is the hustle culture? How does this affect both employees and business owners. We start off by sharing stories from our childhood of how we “ found our hustle” or when we realized things were different for us! From taking advantage of garage sales, to filling a need in school! When we were younger it seems most of these hustles were fueled by childish wants… such as a bird, a phone, or even just money in our pocket.. Braedon shares taking advantage of an influx of people at garage sales and how he would cater to the customers based on the time of day!Abel shares how a first lady got rid of all sugary drinks and foods from school, and saw an opportunity to sell candy at a very young age!We find that from a true entrepreneur standpoint, we were given everything we needed to survive such as food, shelter, clothing… yet, our wants were always up to ourselves to achieve!We share the idea that our businesses actually in a sense chose us due to the fact that we saw the opportunity and enjoyed the challenges coming our way.. We elaborate on when the hustle culture actually hurt each of us, and brought forth the need to balance our lives due to burnout and the rest of our lives more or less falling apart.. The change as we got older is that we went from childish needs to the want for control of your schedule and freedom of choice in our everyday lives. Did hustle culture lead to a mental breakdown? Is there a difference in the Hustle from working in the business to working on the business?Abel gets very vulnerable about when he started to shift his mindset in the business, and started a new life with new tools.. Which caused lots of stress and in a turn of events turned out he was robbed and sent him into a mental shut down.. Which he says was a huge beautiful time which opened his eyes to the wonderful life he had built.. After a hard reset he was able to focus even harder on what he needed to focus on.. And realizing with his team knowing the struggles and stresses together they are able to carry more weight..We come to conclusion that in order to keep the hustle up, we need to take adequate breaks. Very much in a pendulum manner, both hustle and breaks. Or in a more common sense, work hard, play harder.. How do you measure success? Is materialistic? Is it time freedom? Is it a certain revenue figure?We all have different measurements on success, but we come to the conclusion that while material objects are a very tangible way to measure success, it tends to lead to not so glamorous achievement and almost a dead feeling.. And we start to realize success is usually better measured in making an impact on others. While the hustle culture is highly influenced by social media highlight reels, but as Stone points out, it shows a false narrative outcome, and we talk about getting a new truck, or new equipment.. We as business owners think about the backend stress accompanying these false narratives. We wrap up on this topic going over how banks work and how this hustle culture is highly influenced by both social media and ease of access to funds for WANTS vs NEEDS!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/brews-business--5630487/support.

What does it mean to Fail?Join the Brews & Business Podcast to find out how business owners handle failures, with this episode you’ll learn about how similar business failures really are and how in the grand scheme of business, most entrepreneurs handle failing in a very similar fashion. In this Episode, we touch base on ways to get more efficient in your business, but even more importantly, in your LIFE!!It all comes down to planning your life! Creating more structure to your days and tasks completion!We hear from Sooner Marketing's very own Bobby Elder, who seems to be making headway with automation and using certain apps to increase productivity, while not having to do each step yourself!Bobby brings up a great tip to retroactively update the calendar to make sure he's able to accurately plan in the future based on previous weeks productivity!BUZZZZ!! LOLStone provides a great strategy of building his weeks backwards due to his industry causing typical last minute changes earlier in the week! Planning from friday to monday!Using apps like Zapier, Calendy, Quickbooks, and properly integrating them, allows SMS to automatically respond to reviews on both the good and bad reviews, as well as setting up booking and planning, instead of manually needing to get with customers to set appropriate times for booking, easily making certain slots available to customers and knowing that on the business end, we are on customer alert during those times!Chance does a great job of explaining how a morning routine also helps create efficiency, due to focusing first on yourself, then giving yourself to others. Starting first with himself, and quickly and easily shifting to work in the routine.. As well as an evening routine, which can consist of getting ready for the next day as well as wrapping up from the day of things that didn't get addressed. Stone shares his morning shuffle, to get his day ready, an all too familiar shuffle for the construction industry, which lead to burnout, helped him realize his morning routine which is focused on himself, helps keep him on track when something traumatic happens!Bobby brings up a great question on how do we refocus when productivity isnt there.. And a rebounding answer, between all of us, is simple taking a break and focusing on something fun or outside of the work we are working on!Some of you may be more reliant on other people's time, so how do you stay productive during that “wasted time?”Another great automation Braedon mentions is putting your phone on work mode, or do not disturb mode to help keep productivity going!Abel touches base on how his inbox and texts are basically at inbox zero. Keeping focus on the current tasks at hand.. Keeping his stress levels lower and paying attention to what's important!We touch base on to-do lists, we all explain what they mean to us..Braedon calls his a shit list, which he calls his rolling list of shit, which doesnt necessarily have any rhyme or reason, but basically just getting his thoughts out onto paper. Stone has his notebook, which is his very important info, or more or less, If it makes money, it goes in the notebook. Abel touches base on his list and how he likes to whiteout as tasks are completedSometimes its setting up the room or the workflow, coming from room temperature, drink option, or even just starting your day outdoors.. But even more important is creating a supportive, open, and honest environment between all members of your community. Bobby puts it quite simple on how to create this environment.. LISTENING!Which may come down to listening to your team, and simply getting ice or buying them lunch.. When you listen to them, they go above and beyond for you!Key takeaways!Braedon- Concentrate on task, Shitlist, CalendarChance- use a calendar to schedule and manage yourself!Stone- Prioritize your tasks!Bobby- Automation!!Abel- Say no to distractions!Thank you for listening to the brews and business podcast!Get to know the ins and outs of everyday small business owners as we share our stories and experiences with you. #letsgrowtogetherBraedon KruseSooner Marketing Solutions"Marketing Solutions That Deliver Sooner Results"Marketersoonermarketingsolutions.comAbel RodriguezARC Outdoorsmen"Creating & Maintaining Your Outdoor Living"Ownerarcoutdoorsmen.comChance JonesThreaded IndustriesOwnerthreadedindustries.comStone ShewStoneCo DownFlo Seamless Guttering"Got Flow?"Ownerguttersok.comNathan SweatsAnthem CompaniesBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/brews-business--5630487/support.

What does it mean to Fail?Join the Brews & Business Podcast to find out how business owners handle failures, with this episode you’ll learn about how similar business failures really are and how in the grand scheme of business, most entrepreneurs handle failing in a very similar fashion. Hear from our special guest Nathan Sweats, who runs 3 companies, which means he has 3 times the opportunity for failures, but with the correct mindset he sees it as an opportunity to learn from 3 different practices and processes!Touching base all the way from Lawsuits, IRS, closing down companies, we all talk about the lessons learned and the ability to keep failing forward. Nathan shares a great analogy passed on from his dad about mastering a skill through reading and consuming knowledge, but actually putting it in practice is a whole different animal!Overall Nathan brought up the energy to show us how each of these failures have actually catapulted him from simple construction to now developing his own subdivision!Taking an interesting concept of building the Anthem brand, while not muddying the waters by breaking out his companies into different divisions and different management process, all while maintaining the Anthem standards.We find ourselves reiterating the realization of learning from each of our failures and the concept of working on ourselves before tackling the business, as many times our personal habits and perceptions that hold us back..
