MARKETING TRAINING

One of the most often repeated items of feedback Lynton receives from its customers is the question of how best to market their clinic or salon services. That is why Lynton have joined forces with LiveseySolar to develop a range of business support courses. LiveseySolar are a consultancy group that specialises in helping cosmetic and medical establishments to drive more customers through their door. The first of these courses has now been developed in time for the New Year, so why not kick off your strategy for 2010 by attending a course entitled "How to increase referrals and repeat customers"? More courses will be added throughout the year, but for further details about this first course please contact Bettina Brown, Customer Services Manager, on 01477536977

(A) Brochures (B) Adverts (C) PR (D) Cold Calling (E) Referrals?

If you answered (E), you'd be right! Not only do referrals have a much higher chance of converting into clients (57%), your communication with them can be relevant, inexpensive, convenient, hassle-free and even pleasant. Research shows that more people trust recommendations from people they know more than any marketing approach. Think about it, you know it's true.

The only problem with referrals, is that you never get enough of them! Join Rod Solar of LiveseySolar Practice Builders to maximize your most powerful advertising medium - your word of mouth. In one 8 hour course he will help you:

• Get your referral foundations right
• Understand the 3 golden rules of referrals
• Implement the 5 critical steps to get more referrals
• Identify who to ask for referrals
• Learn scripts you can use to get them
• Ensure you get referrals long term
