Good morning, Techy family! It’s been a while since we’ve connected, and I’m excited to share updates from my recent experiences. As I write from Pearland, Texas, let’s dive into what’s been happening and some insightful conversations from our community.
Experiencing the Coldest Day in Houston
My journey brought me to Pearland, Texas, where I encountered the coldest day of the year in Houston. Despite the chill, the warmth of our Techy community has been a constant. Being on the road and away from the usual routine hasn’t dampened the spirit of connecting and sharing.
Today’s Experience Day at Techy
Experience Day at Techy is all about sharing and learning from each other’s experiences, whether they’re good or bad. It’s a chance for us to roleplay, brainstorm, and discuss various scenarios that we encounter in our professional lives.
Community Engagement and Networking
Our focus has been on networking and community engagement. Despite the cold weather, there’s been active participation in networking events. For instance, Gloria, one of our business owners, has been introducing herself to local businesses, exploring B2B opportunities, and bringing them into the 21st century with our services.
Approaching Sales with a Helping Hand
A key lesson from our discussions has been the approach to sales. The emphasis is on assisting rather than selling, a strategy that fosters trust and long-term relationships. This approach has been effective in initiating conversations with potential B2B clients, like a local dental office still relying on paper-based processes.
Overcoming Weather Challenges in Business
Despite weather-related challenges, such as difficulty in door-to-door marketing or delays in shipments, we’ve adapted by focusing on other aspects like phone calls and follow-ups. It’s crucial to keep the momentum going, no matter the external circumstances.
Customer Service: The Key to Success
A recurring theme in our discussions has been the importance of excellent customer service. For instance, addressing customer needs, even if it means providing a service for free, can lead to long-term business relationships and positive word-of-mouth referrals.
Final Thoughts and Looking Ahead
As we wrap up our discussions, the importance of community engagement, excellent customer service, and a non-salesy approach to business development stands out. These strategies not only help in immediate problem-solving but also pave the way for sustainable business growth.
Conclusion:
It’s been a productive and insightful day here in Pearland, Texas. As we look forward to more such experiences, remember, every interaction is an opportunity to grow, learn, and strengthen our community. Let’s continue to support each other and grow together in the exciting world of tech!
