He is the Wall Street Journal bestselling author of Never Lose a Customer Again, an award-winning speaker, and works with organizations around the world ranging from small startups to major brands. His new book, Never Lose an Employee Again: The Simple Path to Remarkable Retention, offers a proven framework for increasing employees retention, engagement, and in the process, profits. Joey explains how companies should focus on the employee journey from the first day on the job. A new employee's first-day experience should be welcoming and inclusive, and companies should assign someone to be responsible for the entire journey from the first time the employee hears about the business until they're up and running a hundred days later. By doing so, retention numbers can significantly improve. It’s important to understand that we have humans who work at our company and celebrate them for their humanity, not only of their product.   More About Joey Coleman: Website: joeycoleman.com Get your copy of Never Lose an Employee Again More About The Agency Certification Intensive Training: Learn more Take The Marketing Assessment: Marketingassessment.co  This episode of the Duct Tape Marketing Podcast is brought to you by the HubSpot Podcast Network.

The 5 Stages Of Marketing Every Business Moves Their Customers Through

In this episode of the Duct Tape Marketing Podcast, I'm doing a solo show, and I'm gonna talk about something that I've been talking a lot about lately called the Customer Success Track. Key Takeaway: After working with tons of small businesses and clients for the last 30+ years, I've realized that there are five stages of marketing that many businesses go through. I've been able to identify the milestones that businesses need to move customers or clients through and consequently the tasks associated with each of those milestones. I've mapped this out in what I'm calling the Customer Success Track – a concept I talk about deeply in my latest book – The Ultimate Marketing Engine. In this episode, I'm diving into the five stages of the customer success track – Foundation, Level Up, Organize, Stabilize, and Scale – and how to advance a customer or client through all 5 stages over the course of a long-term business relationship.
