Wallet Share: Supercharge Your Growth with Your Existing Clients
Coach Marlene Powell
August 14, 2024
Are you in a constant race to attract new clients, hoping that the next one will be the key to unlocking your business’s growth? Your business’s real goldmine is not out there but already within your reach. The answer lies in a powerful strategy that too many companies and their owners overlook, the increasing of your wallet share with your existing clients.
Maximising What You Already Have
You have worked hard to build a loyal customer base, whether in B2B or B2C. However, the truth is that simply having clients is not enough. The real question to ask yourself is whether you are fully tapping into the potential each client represents. Before you pour resources into acquiring new business, take a moment to evaluate what you are doing with the ones you already have.
Identifying Your Most Profitable Clients
Not all clients contribute equally, especially when it comes to profitability. It is easy to fall into the trap of treating all customers the same, but doing so could cost you. The first step is to analyse your client list and identify those who significantly contribute to your business's bottom line. These clients are your hidden gems, and they deserve your focus.
Unlocking Hidden Opportunities
Once you have identified your top clients, it is time to dig deeper. What are they buying from you, and more importantly, what are they not buying that they could be? Too often, businesses assume their clients know everything they offer, but that is rarely the case. This is your opportunity to educate them about your products or services. Imagine the potential increase in revenue simply by informing your best clients about solutions or offerings they did not even know you provided.
Deepening Client Commitment
Next, consider how much these clients are currently spending with you. Could they be spending more with you? The answer is often yes, and encouraging this can significantly boost their loyalty and your profits. By deepening their commitment, you create a more sustainable relationship that benefits both sides.
Reviving Past Opportunities
Let us not forget those prospects who showed interest but never closed the deal. That proposal you engaged with six months ago, or the quote that never got a response to may still be on the table. Often you will find that potential clients are still weighing their options or are dissatisfied with a competitor. By reaching out to them again, you might find they are now ready to say yes.
A Clear Path to Growth
By focusing on these strategies, you are not just hoping for growth, you are building a clear, actionable plan. You will know which clients to prioritise, which products or services to promote, and how to maximise the value you offer. This insight will also sharpen your marketing efforts, ensuring you target the right audience with the solutions.
