Ask yourself: “If I were a customer, why would I choose to work with APM?”
Here are few reasons that come to mind:
- The people I deal with are nice.
- APM doesn’t push one trap manufacturer, they are independent.
- Their price is fair.
- They handle the incentive paperwork so it reduces my time and cost.
- Their invoices are easy to process and pay.
- APMs report looks the best.
- Their field staff is knowledgeable.
While all of the items above play a part in whether a customer works with us or not, the truth is that it not what we do, but how we do it. The way in which we all operate day in and day out can…
…separate us from the competition.
…build confidence in APM with each customer.
…turn the cost of our services into a real value in the eyes of the customer.
…ensure we obtain repeat business.
When we understand the needs of our customers and deliver the value that exceeds those needs, we become indispensable.
When we fail to understand and deliver upon the needs of our customers, we are just ‘good enough”. That makes us just another company that can be easily replaced.
Do you want to work for just another company?
If not, then let’s work to understand the needs of each customer, treat each customer as if they were our most important client, and do the things it takes to deliver superior results.
This is something I would definitely reference as a recruiting resource to help get candidates excited about APM and what we do!
