How to Set and Manage Client Expectations: 7 Essential Tips

“It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single business in possession of goods, must be in want of a customer.” I hope Jane Austin will forgive me for using one of the most famous sentences in world literature to make a point. Any business, be it B2C or B2B, will succeed only through a customer-centered approach. This universally acknowledged truth is easier said than done. Acquiring clients is difficult, working with them — especially with the new ones — is even more difficult. Each customer is different, so creating a company culture that addresses all these needs and wants is a real challenge. The key is to set and manage feasible expectations. You need to find the balance between safe and impressive, take into account the team’s capacity, avoid over-promising and under-delivering. I promise I’m not just going to state the obvious and rub salt into the wound, I…

8 Strategies to Improve the Customer Retention of Your Agency

How To: Beginner 15 MIN READ

They say it’s easier to keep a customer than get a new one. We’d like to add that it’s also cheaper. Customer retention is all about keeping things interesting enough for your clients that they keep coming back to you to purchase new services. That’s why this article is here to help you improve customer retention. What you get out of this is spending five to 25 times less than you would if you acquired a new customer. Also, keep in mind that a 5% increase in customer retention rates can lead to 25-95% growth in profits.

To calculate this, you need the number of clients you had at the beginning of that period (S), the number of clients at the end of that period (E),…

How To: Intermediate 9 MIN READ

Are you wrecking your brain trying to figure out the stacking order of HTML elements? Let us lend you a helping hand and do the heavy lifting for you. First things first, here’s what you need to know about the z-index: The z-index CSS property sets the z-order. That’s why developers use it to determine the order in which elements are positioned within the stacking order. Usually, 2 types of errors occur. The first one is because the z-index only works when an element is a) a positioned element, b) a flex item or c) a grid item.
