How do you ensure that your client acquisition cost is always less than your lifetime customer value? How do you achieve a loyal customer base? A lot of businesses struggle in establishing a loyal customer base. They try various strategies until they find out what works best for them.
In this episode, we speak to Victor Antonio, a keynote speaker, author, host of the sales influence podcast, and a sales consultant. He has a B.S in Electrical engineering, an MBA and has built over 25 years as a top sales executive and CEO of a high-tech company.
In this session, Victor shares his journey from pursuing his degree in electrical engineering, realizing it wasn’t his thing four years later, to finding his passion in sales and scaling businesses. Besides, he expounds on capitalizing on upselling to increase customer retention, leveraging technology for your upsell, creating a value map for your customers, and client acquisition cost versus lifetime customer value.
