Align yourself with Jersey’s newest health care agency Customer service The organising theme of the hive is that everything is done for the good of the whole and the community is central to the operations of the colony.

Every single bee is aligned to the hive's value, and shared values are instilled through their frequent messages.

Making your internal and external customers feel important is a tremendous step in building customer loyalty. How do you know what customers want in order to feel important? While each individual is different, there are ways you can make your customers feel important every time they interact with your business. Simple steps such as using your customer's name or shaking your employee's hand will go a long way to making them feel valued.

You may be thinking that this is obvious, indeed, it is not rocket science. While it may be obvious, the truth is that it is also frequently not practised. And because it is not done well or consistently, it represents a key differentiator.

“70% of buying experiences are based on how the customer feels they are being treated” - McKinsey First let’s take look at “Employee loyalty”, if you want employees to go above and beyond for you, you must go above and beyond for them. Employees who are loyal will provide exceptional customer service and will be more adept at helping your business grow.

Businesses that focus on

keeping their employees informed, and in the know, help to make them feel part of a team. When you take the time to clearly communicate with your employees, letting them know your expectations, their job duties, and provide feedback, they will be more loyal and you will notice a reduction on your staff turnover, saving you time and money.

Next is your “customers’ loyalty”, the only way that small business owners can beat the big guys isn’t to compete with them on the things they are good at (e.g., low prices, logistics, etc.); it’s far more important to provide a level of service that your competition just can’t match: exceptional customer service and creating customer loyalty.

“The probability of selling to an existing customer is 6 to 7%. The probability of selling to a new prospect is 5 to 20%" – Marketing Metrics.

One of the key to maintaining a thriving business is a steady customer base. A successful company typically sees eighty percent of its business come from twenty percent of its customers. If your business goal is to live long and prosper, then any efforts toward building customer loyalty will certainly pay off.

You have to put real energy and effort into maintaining a consistent customer base; just providing a great product or service is rarely enough to keep them coming back for more.

By Claire Boscq-Scott

A new health care agency with the collective vision of making alternative and natural based private health care affordable to all and an integral part of islanders’ ‘toolkits’ for staying healthy and well has recently launched in Jersey – just in time for the New Year.

Staying healthy and ensuring we live an active and varied lifestyle is a top priority for Islanders and their families, but this can be challenging to achieve.

As 2017 approaches, many people will be looking to the year ahead and considering what changes they can make to ensure they maintain their good health, or deal with any issues that have been causing pain or discomfort.

With this in mind, founders MarieChristine Dix, Ciara Ahern, Nick Dingle and Kelly Keating have launched a new multidisciplinary health agency, the first of its kind in Jersey, with the intention of helping Islanders to change the way they think about their health.

Based at Lido Medical Centre, Align offers a unique range of services that address multiple aspects of health, including the physical, emotional and chemical aspects of wellbeing, alongside the key concept of prevention.

Align’s concept is a 360 degree approach to health which is reflected in the range of services on offer: chiropractic and osteopathy, sports and remedial massage, acupuncture and dry

needling, cognitive hypnotherapy and psychotherapy, craniosacral therapy and life coaching, and Align 1-1 Fitness.

Built on the philosophy that a personally tailored and proactive combination of these services will help people to feel the best possible version of themselves, an expert team of health specialists delivers each service.

Marie-Christine Dix explains: ‘We encourage patients to view their health and wellbeing as a journey.

The more preparation we can do whilst we are in good health, the smoother that journey will be.

Most of us tend to visit health care professionals when we are already experiencing pain and discomfort, but by applying a holistic and preventative approach we firmly believe that we can help patients to maintain their health and prevent the onset of issues.

‘Of course patients will still come to us because they have a specific problem with their back, for example, and we can help to address this issue. Often, we find that patients’ niggles can be relieved most effectively by reviewing the bigger picture of their health. We thrive on empowering our patients to live pain and stress free lives where they can focus on what is most important to them.’

Align has developed a number of bespoke packages and programmes that will help patients to follow a positive route to better health.

Join The Dots, Align’s signature programme, was designed to help patients to figure out what that small niggle is caused by or to provide answers where other health care professionals have been unable to help. Initially led by a chiropractor and involving a number of diagnostic tests, Align will then identify what steps need to be taken to resolve the issue, be that within the public or private sector.

12 Weeks To Align Your Health is a unique, high quality programme of care centred on chiropractic, massage therapy, nutritional advice and dietary plans, functional exercise, mindfulness and measurable changes in blood analysis. Course leaders will test the key indictors of health including (not tested in Jersey previously) homocysteine levels, fasted blood sugar testing and functional movement screening to get a picture of participants’ overall state of health, before embarking on a specially crafted course to becoming fitter and healthier.

‘This is the first time a range of such diverse but complementary services have been available from one agency in Jersey, and our signature programmes have been specially created to address the whole self and set participants up for the long term,’ said Ciara Ahern.

Hi Ellie, congratulations on the newly refurbished Salon! How are the staff, students and clients finding it?

The new look in the Salon is great, it has allowed us to create a more commercial image for both our clients and our students. We now have a dedicated hair and beauty reception and teaching facilities purely for hair and beauty students.

The Salon accommodates all aspects of hairdressing from blow dry’s, hair-ups and cutting to restyling and colour correction.

You have been teaching at Highlands College for 18 years now, how did you get into the hair and beauty industry?

the programme (close to 300) is given a dedicated coach and mentor who is there to support the apprentice on their journey through employment and study. Working can be demanding enough without the added pressures of studying at the same time and it is invaluable to have the extra support offered by a mentor who is there for an apprentice to turn to regarding a broad range of issues throughout their apprenticeship.

I have a fantastic team of lecturers who are all highly skilled in all aspects of technical training. We are all current and working within the hairdressing and beauty industry.

As well as regular one to one meetings, mentors will arrange and facilitate quarterly appraisals with the apprentice and their employer to track work place performance; which will then influence the subsequent coaching and mentoring sessions. The reviews consider both their achievements, as well as areas that may need improvement. The Trackers mentor is someone that an apprentice can turn to for advice and guidance who can act as an impartial source of support.

Alongside their studies at Highlands, all students have access to 1 to 1 support, English and maths opportunities and Trackers apprenticeship support which includes a mentor.

Book your appointment today!

As such we are always excited when we can launch a new pathway for Jersey’s work force to secure accredited qualifications in their chosen industry whilst working and studying in an apprenticeship format.

So what are the benefits of studying an apprenticeship in association with Trackers?

The main benefit of undertaking an apprenticeship in association with Trackers is the mentoring model that we use. Every apprentice on

Trackers brings together the three main parts of an apprenticeship and will ensure that the apprentice, the employer and the training provider are all in communication with one another to ensure strong working relationships across the board and ensure the continued success of the apprentice.

What exactly does a Trackers Mentor do?

A Trackers mentor will regularly meet one on one with their apprentices to help develop soft skills and challenge apprentices to develop and reach their full potential. Mentors will use personal reflection, performance review, goal setting and action planning, to name just a few techniques to meet this aim and will always tailor the sessions to the individual.
