Peter Foxhoven
Peter Foxhoven was born in the Iowa city of Des Moines. He went to ISU and Drake University for his education (undergrad and grad school, respectively). He may be heard on the popular podcast The Appendix N Podcast, where he discusses themes like Conan the Barbarian's life. Peter was recently featured in EbizNews, where he explains how to engage with clients in a variety of ways. "In the business world, building relationships is such an important element of the entrepreneur's function," Peter Foxhoven says. "You need contacts with other professionals in every field, but most importantly, you need strong connections with your buyers." It doesn't matter if you're a B2B, B2C, or D2C company; you need to know what matters to your clients and be prepared to address those demands." According to Peter Foxhoven, a business owner or entrepreneur should engage with clients in five ways: Know Who You're Talking To – You'll have a hard time creating a relationship if you don't know who you're attempting to help, according to Foxhoven. His advice is to avoid making assumptions about the audience by first learning about their actual pain issues and motivators before putting speculations about what will appeal to them to the test. Maintain Open Lines of Communication - Providing continuous updates is critical to providing a transparent and honest service. Provide honest updates, even if the news is bad, says Foxhoven. Customers will become increasingly annoyed and lose faith in your brand if you leave them guessing. Evaluate and Improve — Take a look at how your customers perceive your job. Checking in or submitting a survey is a great method to find out how they feel about you. He cautions against taking anything to heart. But, whenever there's an opportunity for improvement, pay attention and make the necessary changes to grow your company.
