Delivering a World-class Experience

Chapter 7 Summary

By delivering a world-class experience, you turn customers into a tribe of raving fans who want to buy from you repeatedly. To provide this world-class experience, you need to implement systems in your business and make smart use of technology.

Highlights covered in this chapter include:

  • Why building a tribe of raving fans is crucial to your business success and how to do it.
  • The two critical functions of your business.
  • How to innovate, even when the product or service you sell is dull and ordinary.

  • The four main systems in your business that virtually guarantee your business success.
  • How to eliminate the biggest bottleneck in your business

Building Your Tribe of Raving Fans

One of the things that separate extraordinary businesses from ordinary ones is that they lead tribes, tribes of raving fans—not just customers.

As a small business, you have a massive advantage to build a raving fanbase.

Sell Them What They Want but Give Them What They Need

A big part of the battle you’ll fight is getting people to do what they need to do to achieve results with your product or service.

It’s going to mean you need to spoon-feed them through the process of getting results. Otherwise, you’re in a low margin, commodity, transaction-style business competing solely on price.

So, your job is to find a way to sell what your prospects want but also to give them what they need.

Create Theater around Your Products and Services

Your customers don’t just want to be serviced. They want to be entertained.

A common misconception is that the innovation has to be in the actual product or service itself.

Innovation can be applied to how the product is priced, financed, packaged, supported, delivered, managed, marketed or a myriad of other elements related to any part of the customer experience — Allan Dib

Checkout a superb example presented in the book by the author below:

Blendtec is a manufacturer of blenders, ordinary blenders like the type you would use in your kitchen at home. They’ve created an enormous viral marketing buzz by making a YouTube video series called Will It Blend? Where they have a wacky-looking scientist demonstrate their product by blending a variety of weird objects from iPhones and iPads to golf balls.

There are plenty of examples in the book for every section. It is not possible or ethical to reproduce all the brilliant examples here, so please consider buying your copy from the Amazon.
