We talk about:

1. The rules and regulations of social media advertising.

In this week’s solo episode, I share what I like to call, The Frontline Effect. Your team is the ultimate brand ambassadors, so you need to nurture that relationship and communicate clearly with your team about what your brand values are and how you want your customers to see you.

We talk about:

1. The impact of good customer service over the phone.
2. The hidden cost of poor communication.
3. How to communicate with clarity to reduce conflict.
4. My own first-hand experience with difficult customers, and how I managed the situation without damaging the brand image.
