A Wonderful 3-Step Holiday Challenge

December 3, 2009

This is simply a good idea. Michele Miller of the Wonderbranding Millers issued this challenge yesterday on her blog:

Here’s a holiday challenge:

  1. Either you or a staff person should quickly pull up a list of 22 names and phone numbers of your best customers.
  2. Schedule and commit to 5 minutes per day, everyday, for the next 22 days.
  3. Take one name on the list, and make a phone call.

Hi, Mrs. Mayberry. This is Alvin from Golf World. It’s been a little crazy around here with the holidays, but this morning I just felt like picking up the phone and calling a few of my favorite customers. It was great getting to know you this year, and I wanted to do more than send an ordinary card. I just want to wish you and your family a Happy Holiday. Enjoy, and I hope to see you again soon!

Michele explains the whys and hows more specifically here.

What are you waiting for? Go now. Try not to spill the wassail.

Thanks for stopping by today.
