Flip The Funnel How to Use Existing Customers to Gain New Ones

When you consider customer acquisition for your business, think about this question for a moment: how much of your sales come from repeat business versus first time customers? Now contrast that against how much money you spend against each segment. If you are embarrassed by the gaping disconnect, don t worry; you are not alone. But what if you did something about it? What if you turned everything on its head and instead of ending with a customer purchase, you began with it? What if you focused the lion s share of your effort, energy, and budget on keeping customers versus attracting them? What if you could correct this imbalance and, in doing so, not only get your customers to keep coming back for more, but tell others to do so as well?

Joseph Jaffe loves to take on such sacred cows in business practice, turning them on their heads and shaking them up to see what falls out. Building on what this prolific thought leader started in Life After the 30 Second Spot and Join the Conversation, Flip the Funnel brings you a radically new, radically common sense look at customer experience as the key to business success.
