Dr. Tony Alessandra on Customer Retention & Customer Loyalty

A few days ago I want to a seminar with Dr. Tony Alessandra after his speech I asked him to do a quick video for you guys so you can learn about how to keep customers and create customer loyalty so you can create raving fans (or as Tony calls them Apostles).

After recording this video at the seminar I got in trouble with the event host as he wasn’t happy that I was interviewing an expert at the event… So hard to say how many more of these I’ll be able to do…

Watch the video below:

    Greetings Reed, Thomas Richmond here, i wanted to thank Dr. Tony for the analogy of keeping your fruits of labour blossoming, relationships of whom i do business with must be kept on a 1 on 1 form of somekind of communication, it is essencial to your growth in the market place, i thank God for the people i know on a personal level as well as on a business level, i do have a few apostles hoping for more, and if you know me Reed and i hope you do, you know i mean business with who and what i know , do or say. Have an awesome weekend buddy ๐Ÿ™‚ God_bless you

    Ahhh. Tony Alessandra is one of my favorite people. I was first exposed to his “Platinum Rule” about 12 years ago. Thanks for the reminder Reed!

    This is only really useful once you have a customer base, if you have just entered a new niche, then this is not very helpful. You have to have enough customers to be able to find those that even have the potential of becoming your “apostles”.
    But it is good information for once have established a large enough customer base to find these “apostles”

    That’s OK Melody, you will have one- the best part is you get to start off the right way, nurturing your future customers and creating more Apostles in a shorter time. if you have a list, open the communication up w/ them. Share some stories about your holidays or maybe a quirky family tradition. Let them get to know you and you’ll turn your list into buyers.

    Reed! Dr. Tony Alessandra was indeed generous to share his apostle making ideas with us here. Keep up THIS level of training, Reed, and I will happily become your raving apostle. That was outstanding material from a great thinker – reminded me of Jay Abraham for Quality.

    A very enlightening video. Makes you think on how to improve your business on the long term. Customers like to think that they are appreciated, putting in that little extra effort can make a difference.

    Isn’t Tony amazing? He’s also a very giving person, as can be seen by this almost 4 minute video that he did for you.

    I’m exciting to be working with him in http://iLearningGlobal.tv. He spoke at our first conference in November. The videos that he’s recorded, that are available to me every day are inspiring, motivating, and sometimes just a friendly reminder about what I should be doing.

    Thanks, Reed, for taking the time to share this information.

    Reed, this video is the difference between being a ‘Bum’ marketer just grabbing one off sales where ever you can, with dubious quality products, versus building a REAL business and overdelivering for Lifetime Customers as Jay Abraham encourages us to do. (Continuity)

    I couldn’t agree more…

    Top Affiliates are your businesses gold nuggets and this is exactly what he is talking about. Nurturing these relationships and building more will take your business to a remarkable level.

    Reed: Thanks for posting the video. I was fortunate when Dr. Alessandra asked me to speak with him at the PPN seminar in Cleveland about six months ago. Tony wanted me to show the audience how I was using high-tech to create high-touch relationships to develop my Apostles. If you get a chance, look into new technology called Cyrano CRM Marketing System. It gives people the power to send emails, letters, customized mailings and even gifts that match the tastes, interests and preferences… of every recipient!

    Tony’s 3-step method of creating more Apostles works every time… write it down and commit yourself to the process!

    I just added you to my RSS feed… keep up the good work.

    p.s.: If you want to learn more about a personal/professional development business Tony and I are building with Brian Tracy, Steven Covey and about 40 other thought leaders, look into: http://www.iLearningGlobal.biz/scottzimmerman

    Best of luck to you on your success journey!
