In the corporate world, fewer things are more important than
your client and winning over a client can sometimes be as difficult as trying
to walk on a tightrope. Before you even try to win over clients, you will want
to make sure that you already have a winning strategy in mind. Try to avoid
playing things by ear.
Even after you have landed a client, that does not mean that
all the hard work is over. You still need to work to keep them happy. Remind
them that they are valued and make them feel like a priority. Try to anticipate
their needs and always show your respect for them. Try your best to perfect the
art of listening and communicating effectively. Be confident and know your
product and services inside and out. The words, “I don’t know” are some of the
worst words that you can say to a client. While it is important to prepare a
good presentation, be careful that you do not bore your client either.
More often than not, any potential client will have many
other options besides you. Let this potential client know what makes your
company and your product stand out from the crowd. Is it the attention to
detail? Is it the skills of the people that you hire? What can you offer that
no one else can? Figure out what makes what you are selling really special.
Another great strategy is making the effort to know who your
client is. Check out our delicious corporate catering menus. Doing the proper
research on your client will show that you mean business and that they are not
just another paycheck to you. There are various ways to research your client
including reading over their LinkedIn
profile if they have one as well as thoroughly going through their website if
they have one.
When you keep your client happy, you will be in a great
position. Not only will you have this person’s business, they might even refer
you to more potential clients. You can never underestimate the power of word of
mouth when it comes to getting business.
Sometimes, a great product or service is not the only thing
that you can offer to your clients. A great experience can make a huge
difference in whether or not you gain their business as well. From a day
playing golf to getting them tickets to a game, there are many ways to make
your client feel special and valued.
Food is another way to make your client feel special. Find
out what their favorite food is. Treat them to their favorite food the next
time that you have to talk business. If you are having a presentation for
several clients, then use a caterer
who really knows how to go the extra mile. Find out if your client has any food
allergies or dietary restrictions and be sure to let the caterer know.

can provide you and your clients with a wide assortment of delicious food. From
freshly-prepared sandwiches, salads, and wraps to breakfast menus and a variety
