Business Commitment

"Without involvement, there is no commitment... " Stephen Covey

Communication is the key to sustaining an ongoing relationship of any kind, including a business relationship with your clients!

If the relationship is not nurtured through regular contact there is often no reason to store information about a person in your head, let alone form any attachment to that person at a heart level.

During my time at University, I found that people are more likely to get involved in a club or group if they are personally invited to come along. The more involved they got, the more committed they became.

The same can be said of businesses.

The more you involve your customers by informing them on what is going on in your business, the more commitment they will show you.

You may have experienced those once-in-a-lifetime timeless friendships. The ones where it doesn’t seem to matter how long it’s been since you were in contact.

When you finally get in touch or meet up - it’s like no time has passed. Unfortunately that is not the way it usually pans out in the majority of our relationships; be it friendship or business.

Most relationships will need to be nurtured to grow into strong fully established connections.

Nurturing a baby is something a mother must concern herself with right from the time of conception. For a hen, this means making sure the nest is lined with feathers, sitting on the eggs, keeping them warm and protecting her eggs from the rest of the world.

It pays not to count your chickens before they hatch. However once they have emerged from the eggs, baby chicks need feeding and nurturing to fully grow.

In the same way, your business relationships need to be fed regularly to remain healthy. This can take time which you may not have in the chaotic rush of running your business.

Permission Marketing Ltd is in the business of saving you time and money by creating lifeline pathways to feed and nurture your ongoing relationships with your clients.

It is a proven fact: nurturing communication with your clients will strengthen your relationships with your clients and grow your business.
