Its not what you say, Its What THEY Say that Counts

Online Customer Reviews have fundamentally changed our business over the last few years.

It was back in April 2017 the Group conference at the Motor Cycle Museum that we highlighted that the Group had collected very few reviews over all the previous years. From memory we had less that 800 reviews across the brands.

I am really proud to say that we have now close to exceeding 9000 reviews!! That is HUGE..!!




We are leading the way in our respective sectors and when, or if, the competition finally wake up we will be way ahead of the rest.

If you are not actively seeking out reviews from your customers then you will be losing sales. We have lost count of the number of customers that say they chose us due to the reviews they had read.

Not only are they good for prospective new customer they can also….

  • Increase the Click Through Rate on the website
  • They help add new content on your website which is a positive thing for Google
  • They make you stand out from the crowd

While reviews can be achieved for doing a great job or a very poor job BUT the best way to get a  Review is to have a system to collect reviews and ASK!


Please make it a point to get REVIEWS - you will not be disappointed.

Ultimately customer don't care what you say - just look at how everyone writes the same nonsense on their own website - they care about what others say about you and your service.

Turning Customers into Raving Fans....

Image
  Check this out.... I was in London the other weekend watching my daughter Tori doing the London 10K run. It was a great little run through the streets of the West End, along the Embankment, past Big Ben and then to Downing Street. At the end of the run we decided to go for lunch in Covent Garden.  You'll probably know that there are lots of restaurants around Covent Garden and there is a certain one called Flat Iron. It was recommended to us but you can't book. After a short walk we arrived to find a queue of people waiting to get in for meal. And I mean a queue - check out the photo. We were starving so we didn't bother waiting and moved on. However, this got me thinking... how can a little restaurant attract so much attention and yet other restaurants nearby were empty? What was this place doing that clearly had raving fans queuing to get in for food? I appreciate that we are in a very different market than a restaurant but doesn't it make you think?  What am I doin...

Don't Put Up With Unwanted Sales Calls.... Taking Positive Action

Image
We all hate sales calls right...? We spend time and money to promote our business and get all excited about receiving a phone call from a potential customer and you hear the start of a standard sales pitch.......? Boring, frustrating and unwanted!! So take action... after all you are probably paying for the call to you and they are taking up your precious time. Firstly, ALWAYS answer you phone even if you think it is a sales call. YOU JUST DON'T KNOW and second guessing could cost you a lot of money as you will get some genuine calls from numbers outside of your dial code or from commercial businesses that have 0333 type numbers. Secondly if it is an unsolicited sales call don't be polite and let them do their pitch. Be professional and advise them that the call is unsolicited and you are not interested. Thirdly, Block numbers that you recognise to be sales calls. You can do this on most mobile phone. On our Tracking numbers we can block numbers if you let us know. ...

Learn From the Best..... a chat with Carl Traviato

Image
In business we all need to learn.... and the best way to learn is to find people who are good at what they do, spend time with them, listen and learn. The facts in business are that only 20% of businesses in the UK are in really good shape and only 5% absolutely killing it. It can be hard to know the truth from the bullshit so you need to be astute and be good at filtering out the good from the bad. Here is one person in the network who I can assure you is good at what he does and more importantly, how he does it.... It is a 25 minute video but watch, listen and learn.
