HUG
THE NEW WAY OF DOING BUSINESS
TIME FOR A NEW WAY TO DO BUSINESS
WHAT DOES A HUG MEAN IN BUSINESS?
A BUSINESS HUG IS WHEN YOU…
HEAR
UNDERSTAND
GIVE BACK INCREDIBLE VALUE
"Great Huggers pile the hugs one on top of
another until they’ve created an entire
force field of hugs. The great Huggers blitz
a customer with Hugs - with tender loving
care." Jack Mitchell author Hug Your Customers
Business HUGs are about getting
closer to your customers and
using what you learn about
their needs to
serve them BETTER
A business HUG
builds your initial
desire to create
value by adding
engagement into the
equation.
When people HUG, the brain
releases the chemical oxytocin.
This encourages social
bonding, increases the willingness to
trust
and decreases fear.
A customer who feels HUGged will
buy more from you and more often.
They will also become your fans and
your willing word of mouth.
HOW DO YOU HUG YOUR CUSTOMERS?
YOU NEED TO…
YOU NEED TO…
DEVELOP A WAY OF
PERSONALIZING THE EXPERIENCE
BETWEEN YOU, THE SELLER AND
YOUR CUSTOMERS BY BUILDING
RELATIONSHIPS.
ADD FUN!
“A business has to be
Involving, it has to be
Fun, and it has to
Exercise your
creative
Instincts”
Richard Branson
MEET THEIR NEEDS!
Not only do customers want to be
listened to, they also like to feel that
you have listened well enough to
understand them and their needs
and as a result are taking
appropriate action.
MEET THEIR NEEDS!
ENGAGE WITH THEM
“When you enchant people your
goal is not to make money from
them or to get them to do
what you want, but to fill them
with great delight “
Guy Kawasaki, Former Chief Evangelist, Apple Co-founder
“MAKE THE CUSTOMER THE
HERO OF YOU HISTORY”
Ann Handley, Chief Content Marketing Proofs
Business HUGs create the
psychological conditions
that support the buying
process..
THE NEW WAY OF DOING BUSINESS
GIVE YOUR CUSTOMERS A HUG!
AND THEY WILL ALWAYS HUG YOU BACK!
A CUSTOMER HUG MEANS…
THEY WILL BUY MORE FROM YOU..
THEY WILL BUY MORE OFTEN…
AND THEY WILL BRING THEIR FRIENDS
HEAR UNDERSTAND GIVE BACK VALUE
MAKES GOOD BUSINESS SENSE
ALWAYS BEGIN WITH THE HUG IN MIND
