KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Marketing and sales automation are powerful tools in today's world. But we must learn to use them correctly and avoid slipping into bad habits that could cost us in the log run.
• It is important to identify what your ‘value proposition’ is, this will help guide you through the process of automation. But, as your business and goals change so will your value proposition, therefore, it is important to reevaluate it at regular intervals.
• It is important to consider our behaviour. How do we make choices? How are we persuaded? How do we evaluate services? By doing this we can understand our stakeholders in a clear and concise way and not simply by economic models. 
• Once you learn about value you can maximise the value in your organisation. This knowledge will give you the tools to strengthen your services, product design, process, brand and customer and staff loyalty.

PODCAST DESCRIPTION

In today’s world businesses and organisations are able to deliver things much more quickly at the touch of a button than 15 years ago. And our competitors can too.

We are in danger of escalating  journeys down the wrong track and be too far gone to retrieve them. 

Wouldn’t it be so much better to do the right thing right first time instead of becoming very efficient at doing the wrong thing? 

Well this is what this podcast is about. It is about optimising value in your customer or employee or stakeholder experience in different manifestations. You get to understand how we think and behave in different scenarios and can apply them to your own purchasing, sales, recruitment, team-building, customer retention and audience perception management.
