Wat is EC precies?

Endless Customers (oftewel EC) is een praktisch framework en een sales-en-marketingfilosofie gebaseerd op een eenvoudig principe: wanneer je prospect of klant een vraag stelt, dan beantwoord je die op je website. Door dat te doen word je de trusted advisor, oftewel de meest vertrouwde stem in jouw markt. Hierdoor zul je meer business doen dan ooit tevoren.

This may sound simple when you take a quick superficial look at it. But appearances can be deceiving.

TAYA's framework essentially follows this thought process: we want to unravel questions and concerns of prospects and customers and then answer them. Open, honest, transparent and complete.

We want this way of thinking to become part of our corporate culture and apply it in our sales process so that we see an immediate impact on sales.

And with the right measurement tools in the right place in our company, we are able to measure the revenue growth that comes from implementing TAYA.

Getting your marketing in-house

Een van de grootste voordelen van aan de slag gaan met EC, is dat het vereist dat je je marketing in huis haalt, in plaats van het uit te besteden aan een bureau.

Insourcing marketing means a happier and more effective team.

An additional benefit of our service, one that we didn't initially think of this way, is the impact that training and coaching has on the morale and careers of employees - especially the marketers in your company.

Good marketers want to develop their skills and gain more knowledge. Much of the value marketers experience in your company comes from feeling they can grow, learn and add value.

When you outsource your marketing to an agency, you miss out on the benefits of having your own team. In fact, sometimes there is even conflict between your in-house marketers and the agency you hire. With TAYA, you can avoid this and build better marketers and salespeople in your company.

Jouw Endless Customers trainings- en coachingsteam:

Als gecertificeerd Endless Customers-partner is het onze taak om je trainen en te coachen in de strategische en praktische principes van EC. Zo hoef je aan het einde van jouw EC-traject nooit meer je marketing uit te besteden.

We believe it is much more effective to do the marketing of your business yourself, rather than leaving it to a marketing agency.

This means you do the work yourself and we train and coach your entire team with our team of experienced sales and marketing experts.

 

Het marketing- en salesprogramma is géén business coaching. Business coaches kunnen strategisch een geweldige toevoeging zijn, maar geven je team normaal gesproken geen hands-on training, zoals het opzetten van lead scoring in HubSpot, het creëren van je eigen video’s of hoe je artikelen moet schrijven die hoog scoren in Google en ook nog eens converteren. Onze TAYA-coaches en -trainers doen dat wel.

Iedere coach is een specialist in zijn specifieke vakgebied. Jouw team leert dus de methoden en strategieën die onze coaches zelf dagelijks inzetten om de groei van onze klanten en die van onszelf te realiseren. Dit is waarschijnlijk het meest waardevolle onderdeel van ons EC-programma, los van de implementatie van het framework zelf.

They Ask, You Answer training and coaching team

Kick-off and quarterly planning sessions.

De kick-offsessie
De kick-offsessie is de eerste meeting die we hebben wanneer een klant een EC Training & Coaching-overeenkomst heeft getekend.

It is incredibly important that not only your marketing team participates in this meeting, but also the company's management (the director or, as in larger companies, a division director), sales and other team members who have a lot of customer contact.

Indeed, if we can't get management excited about becoming the most trusted voice in their industry, we won't accept the client, let alone host a kick-off session.

In any case, the following key people are needed in a kick-off session:

  • A head coach at Buzzlytics
  • An account manager from Buzzlytics
  • Your (divisional) director

  • Your head of sales
  • Your marketing team

The purpose of this kick-off session is to get all parties involved on the same page regarding the goals we want to achieve. Furthermore, we will talk about how we keep you 'accountable'. We also cover practical issues such as how the trainings work, how we work together in documents and other 'house rules'.

Quarterly Planning Sessions
Quarterly planning sessions, as the name implies, take place quarterly and last considerably longer than the kickoff session (about 3 hours). We would venture to say that these are the most constructive, direct and fun meetings you will ever have.

In a quarterly planning session, we address issues such as:

  • Your scorecard and how it stands

  • 3-5 sales and marketing priorities

  • Where are we now versus where should we be
  • 90-day plan and goals

Your scorecard

One of the things we discuss in the quarterly planning session mentioned above is your Digital Sales & Marketing Mastery scorecard. This gives us insight into where we are and helps us prioritize. That way we know what we need to work on.

They Ask, You Answer Scorecard

Bij aanvang van jouw marketing- en salesprogramma zul je waarschijnlijk een score hebben van minder dan 20. En dat is helemaal oké. De bedoeling van de scorecard is niet dat je meteen de 100 haalt, maar dat je weet welke prioriteiten je moet stellen om je score te verbeteren.

Weekly and biweekly training sessions

As mentioned above in the section on trainers and coaches, you will be assigned a number of subject matter experts who fit your company's needs. Who these are will be determined primarily in the kick-off and planning sessions.

Your needs determine not only which trainers and coaches you need, but also the frequency of meetings between you and your team and our coaches and trainers.

Here you can see an average build-up of the time spent with our trainers and coaches. Of course, it's not the time investment that's most important, it's about the impact and results we want to achieve together. Some trainers, such as content trainers, will require more than others, such as sales trainers or leadership coaches.

What are the trainings about?

Wat zit er allemaal in je EC-training en -coaching?

Zoals eerder aangegeven, is het concept Endless Customers op zichzelf relatief eenvoudig. Namelijk de trusted advisor worden in jouw branche. Maar daar komen vraagt behoorlijk wat.

We hebben een aantal belangrijke zaken hierboven al toegelicht, maar hieronder vind je een compleet overzicht van wat bij de implementatie van EC komt kijken.

This is what the first 90 days look like

Based on your scorecard and what we discuss together during the kick-off and planning sessions, our head coach will help you set priorities. Our clients find the focus we give them one of the most valuable aspects of working with us.

Assigning coaches to your team
Depending on your needs, you will be assigned several or all of the coaches listed below:

  • Sales trainer
  • Content Trainer
  • Video trainer
  • HubSpottrainer

De belangrijkste prioriteiten in je eerste 90 dagen
We begrijpen als geen ander dat het bovenstaande overweldigend kan voelen. Maar geen zorgen, niet alles hoeft tegelijk. Tijdens de eerste 90 dagen van jouw marketing- en salesprogramma focussen we ons bijvoorbeeld op de zaken die de meeste impact maken wanneer je start.

These are:

  • Producing content that generates revenue
  • Making the ROI measurable through reports in, preferably, HubSpot
  • recording videos that dramatically shorten the sales cycle
  • integrating content into your sales process

And now?
