November Marketing Tip By Stacey Carlton AIFD, CFD A great staff is key! Dedicated employees and customers are vital to word of mouth marketing. Look after them by providing the training and tools they need to do their jobs well. Have a list of job duties for every staff member readily available and easily visible so they understand their role in the business plan. If everyone works as a team, your business will run smoothly and look after itself. A well oiled machine with confident employees will encourage repeat customers and turn them into loyal fans.
