MOD Virtual Assistants

The world is not ending, it’s just going through a strange time. If you’re feeling anxious about uncertainties in the 2022 economy, it’s time to consider innovative strategies to diversify your revenue & give your business much-needed stability. Finding creative ways to think outside of the box and out-innovate your competitors is a surefire way to thrive, no matter what the economic situation may be. All it takes is a little innovation and maybe a few of these ideas to get you started.

Execute all your business ideas without a hitch with a MyOutDesk Virtual Assistant! Book your Double My Business Strategy Session today to find out how!

[Grab a FREE Strategy Call Here]

Market Research

If you have a knack for gathering data and resources to get them, you may want to offer market research for businesses within your industry. Many business owners and entrepreneurs do not have the time or resources to research independently, so this may be a service you can offer. Through research and feasibility studies, you can examine different aspects of the data you find and help a business with its specific issues. For example, you can explore marketing, technology uses, research and development, and even automation.

Analytics

If you have experience and knowledge about the metrics of running a business, you should consider providing analytical services to business owners. Sometimes, businesses need a little help figuring out things like budget allocation, risk, reward, etc. Analytics provide these data points, but entrepreneurs often don’t understand how to get them or use them. You could help other small businesses raise their venture capital and grow their business.

Online Classes

If you have a specific topic that you feel you are an expert in or have developed a solid method to help people in your industry, why not build an online course? You can share your wisdom, help people out and earn some coin in the process. Online courses are top-rated and are often taken by those who wish to build their knowledge or look for ways to improve their business.

Referrals

This may be the best time to bank on referrals from past clients or customers. Build a referral program that will benefit both you and your referrers.  Be it loyalty reward points for discounts or cold hard cash, working out a solid referral program could bring you tons of new business. According to statistics, word of mouth is the primary factor behind 20-50% of purchasing decisions. Business to business companies with referrals have a 70% higher conversion rate, and they report a 69% faster close time on sales. CUSTOMERS WHO ARE REFERRED TO YOUR BRAND ARE UP TO 5X MORE LIKELY TO USE YOUR REFERRAL PROGRAM THAN CUSTOMERS WHO WEREN’T. Keep that in mind when you build your referral program and come up with something sure to keep those referrals pouring in.

Coaching/Mentoring/Consulting

If you have had great success in starting, running, and growing a business or business, you should definitely consider becoming a business coach or consultant or even starting a mentorship program. Many start-ups and budding entrepreneurs could benefit from your wisdom and advice.

These are just a few ideas you could use to branch out and expand your business this year. But, if you need a strong team to support you, schedule a Double Your Business Strategy Session today to find out how  MyOutDesk Virtual Assistant can do just that and more!

The 5 (Practical) Cs for Leading in a Crisis/Downturn

Administrative, Inside Sales, Marketing, MOD Virtual Assistants

True leadership is invaluable in a time of crisis – but being a leader doesn’t automatically mean you know always what to do. To help, we wanted to share with you some valuable words of wisdom from Verne Harnish – and as you read through these, keep in mind that the first point is the most important. Do the rest in whatever order makes sense.

Communicate Daily

Send out a DAILY communication – email, 2-minute video, voice message – to all of your employees. You must over-communicate during a time like this. And it can be brief – a few sentences or 90-seconds is all that’s needed. If you think you need to communicate more than this, you won’t do it, and that’s worse than doing nothing at all.

Your team wants to know that you’re at the helm of the ship (or flying the plane – pick your favorite analogy) – and that you’re working and acting. The key is to stick to the facts – no time for rants, theories, or using phrases like “I bet you’re feeling…” – this isn’t a time for guessing. Present what is happening, don’t sugarcoat, but balance one negative with several positives over the next several days and weeks.

And if you have a negative to share, mention it first in the communication – then note what is being done to address it. Doing this, according to Robert Cialdini, the godfather of influence, makes you more believable and trustworthy.

Communicate something NOW and send it out – don’t give it too much angst – just do it! Your team will be thankful.

Customer/Community Support

There is a tendency to turn inward when something like this happens – but consider “how might we support our customers and community.” Gather teams of employees to brainstorm, then act. The key is giving, giving, giving with no expectation of return. Your customers will remember this when all of this clears up – and it will clear up!

Research shows that one way to combat depression, sadness, etc. is to help someone else.

Clean Up and Catch Up

Organizations have been running hard for years during this decade+ of unprecedented global expansion. Use this slowdown to clean up and catch up. Download Paul Akers’ book Banish Sloppiness – https://paulakers.net/books/banish-sloppiness (it’s free), and then focus on the handful of processes that drive the customer and employee experience and improve them.

It’s time for spring cleaning all aspects of the business. A key focus is on how to make things easier – for customers and employees. When Gene Browne did this at his trash hauling business, The City Bin Co., with a theme of “Bin It,” he was able to strip out about 25% of needless activities and costs, making everyone’s jobs easier and saving money.

Cash, Cash, Cash

Related to “clean up” is a specific focus on the cash side of the business. Review all monthly recurring expenses (I found we were paying for two CRMs!) and eliminate redundancies. And involve your entire employee base in finding ways to save money. Again, when Gene Browne focused on cash for

one quarter, his team of 60 found €40,000/month savings, which netted the firm almost a half-million for the year.

In the US, pursue an SBA Loan. There is a simplified program where you can get a $350,000 10-year loan within four weeks and with the Feds dropping the rate to zero, these loans should be sub 6% with no pre-payment penalties. I’m pursuing one for Scaling Up as a precaution.

Calm and Considerate

At Tony Robbins’ “Date with Destiny” experience, I adopted a new mantra – to approach everything in a “Peaceful, Playful, Passionate” way. It’s been helpful, especially during this crisis. You set the tone for the entire organization.

To help stay calm, breathe! I remember my son Cameron (12 at the time) getting stuck inside the magician’s box while performing the famous Metamorphosis illusion. He told me later, having escaped in time, that he started to panic and then remembered to take a couple of deep breaths and a solution came to him. Years later, when he was quarterbacking his Catalan team to a city and then country championship, his team was down 28 – 7 at halftime. I remember watching him during the second half take several deep breaths as he was readying the team to execute a play.

Right now take a few deep breaths – and give thanks for being able to take those breaths. Namaste and good luck.

Kick Off Spring With These Brand New Green Building Trends

MOD Virtual Assistants

With global warming awareness and green movements becoming more of an actual issue that many people are taking action on, residential green building movements are no longer for the hippie-dippy granola heads but a more mainstream demand. From coast to coast, many new developments are going green.  While we love what green buildings are going to mean to the polar bears, real estate agents can get lost or confused in a sea of new amenities and features that buyers may be looking for. While the green movement may not be a “thing’ in your area just yet, it is important to keep yourself updated on these innovations so you can remain an expert or at the very least know when the inevitable millennial comes in and makes inquiries about it.

Stay on top of things, regardless of fads and trends that may come around, with a MyOutDesk Virtual Assistant. Schedule your Double My Business Strategy Session today to find out how!

Here are some things you may want to keep yourself informed about when it comes to green buildings:

 App-based Energy-efficient Technologies

Our smartphones have taken over so many aspects of our lives, and with other gadgets and software like Alexa to augment that experience, it is only a matter of time before every single one of us use them to control our home thermostats or lighting as well, in fact, many homeowners are already beginning to do this already.  According to developers, many of them have seen a rise in specifications for these kinds of features in new or re-furbished constructions. Voice activation allows for more intuitive integration and use.

Green or Living Roofs

A green roof or living roof is a roof of a building that is partially or completely covered with vegetation and a growing medium, planted over a waterproofing membrane. It may also include additional layers such as a root barrier and drainage and irrigation systems. Container gardens on roofs, where plants are maintained in pots, are not generally considered to be true green roofs, although this is debated. Rooftop ponds are another form of the green roof which are used to treat greywater. Vegetation, soil, drainage layer, root barrier, and irrigation system constitute green roof. Green roofs serve several purposes for a building, such as absorbing rainwater, providing insulation, creating a habitat for wildlife, increasing benevolence and decreasing the stress of the people around the roof by providing a more aesthetically pleasing landscape, and helping to lower urban air temperatures and mitigate the heat island effect.

IAQ Devices

Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) devices, installed in home heating and air conditioning systems, not only provides a healthier indoor air environment by eliminating germs, dust particles, mold, odors, mildew, and bacteria that can cause illness, but are also eco-friendly since they reduce home emissions and improve the value of a house by reducing monthly energy electric/gas costs, in some cases, as much as 25 percent.

LEED Certification

 

Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) is a green building certification program used worldwide. Developed by the non-profit U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) it includes a set of rating systems for the design, construction, operation, and maintenance of green buildings, homes, and neighborhoods that aims to help to building owners and operators be environmentally responsible and use resources efficiently. LEED certification is granted by the Green Building Certification Institute (GBCI), which handles the third-party verification of a project’s compliance with the LEED requirements. The certification process for design teams is made up of two consecutive applications: one including design credits, and one including construction credits. All of the LEED credits in each rating system are assigned to either the design application or the construction application. The design credits include those that are the purview of the architect and the engineer and are documented in the official construction drawings. The construction credits include those that are predominantly under the purview of the contractor and are documented during the construction and commissioning of the building.

Energy Modeling

Energy modeling or energy system modeling is the process of building computer models of energy systems in order to analyze them. Such models often employ scenario analysis to investigate different assumptions about the technical and economic conditions at play. Outputs may include the system feasibility, greenhouse gas emissions, cumulative financial costs, natural resource use, and energy efficiency of the system under investigation. In a building, this system can be extremely important to its being and staying “green”. This impacts a building’s energy consumption because, already in the planning stage, smart decisions can be made in terms of lighting, airflow, and more.

Geothermal Heating and Cooling

What could be better than harnessing the power of the earth itself? Especially when it comes to powering an entire residential building? Geothermal energy is a great resource that has been used for heating and cooling for ages but is now slowly and steadily making its way to the US as green-conscious developers and consumers are consciously asking for such options.   Boston MA, for example, has seen a rise in usage and planned implementations not just for residential buildings but commercial and other city structures as well. Tenants will save on energy costs and will benefit from an environmentally friendly system that heats and cools using the same mechanisms.

Have you seen other green building systems and technology that we didn’t mention? What are your thoughts on green buildings and their future implications? Stay on top of things, regardless of fads and trends that may come around, with a MyOutDesk Virtual Assistant. Schedule your Double My Business Strategy Session today to find out how!

Sometimes Hustle Just Isn’t Enough

MOD Virtual Assistants, Real Estate

Are you happy? Think about it for a moment: are you really, truly happy in your career? Studies have shown that the human mind finds fulfillment & happiness in doing tasks that are useful, so it’s likely that you get an emotional reward from your work – otherwise, you would have changed careers long ago.

Still, before that first cup of coffee, do you come in filled with excitement about the day ahead, or do you have trepidation about a pile of unsolved problems that you have to tackle while simultaneously pushing your business forward?

Maybe the problem isn’t you or your job – it’s that you’ve missed a critical off-ramp to the world of hustle. You’re still stuck in the fast lane pushing as hard & fast as you can, despite the fact that the more successful you become the harder you have to push just to keep pace with all of the demands.

What did you miss? In a word: help. Schedule your Double My Business Strategy Session today to find it.

When you’ve got a tiny business, you can wear all the hats, do all the jobs, and keep all the profits. Even on a small scale, it’s a lot of work, but at least you can keep up with things. Then, as your business starts to grow, the demands increase. More customers, more prospects, more demands on your time – more hustle.

As a business owner, you’re like a frog in the pot of water – it’s easy to miss the slowly increasing heat as it comes to boil until you’ve reached a point where you’re waking up early & staying up late just to stay on top of things. You never would have taken a job working for somebody else doing this kind of work, but for some reason, you torture yourself with it because it gives you freedom.

Freedom? We need to redefine the term, because you’re definitely not free and able to determine your own course in life if you spend all day, every day running just to keep up. Perhaps we could say that “creating your own trap is better than being bait in somebody else’s” – but that’s still a dark, pessimistic view of things, and it doesn’t have to be that way.

As your business grows, you need to add team members to handle the busy work that you no longer have time for. Your job is to be a leader, provide vision & inspiration, and handle key tasks that nobody else can manage – and maybe even sip the occasional Pina Colada on the beach of a tropical resort along the way.

The way that you get from here to there is by hiring staff to handle the hustle for you – which is exactly what MyOutDesk does for 7500 of clients across the United States. We provide higher-quality staffing with prices 60% less than you’d pay for in-house staff, with the flexibility you need to handle any type of assistance required.

How to Build Amazing Work Culture For Your Virtual Team!

MOD Virtual Assistants

Experts say that now more than ever, workplace culture will be a top priority for many seeking employment. For many people, it takes just as much priority as wages and benefits. Your work culture is essential to building your business into what you aspire for it to be! This is because you need people who are on the same page as you and can see your goals and take it and run with them as their own. Building a work culture for a virtual team can be a little more challenging.  The lack of propinquity can make it tricky to create that one-ness needed to succeed.

Enhance your work culture with a MyOutDesk Virtual Assistant! Book a consultation with us today to find out how.

“Culture” has become a sort of buzzword among workplaces in recent years. You just have to look at popular Silicon Valley companies to see this played out. Team culture has become synonymous with things like catered lunches and break room games. However, work culture is more than break rooms, pantries, and team outings. While those can be fun and are great for much-needed breaks, there is so much more to it than that. Culture is about how we work, how we communicate with customers and each other, and how we incorporate company values into what we do.

Virtual teams need a bit more work than those in a traditional office space. Since everyone in a virtual team is remote, it is easy for each member of the team to function as an individual unit and while this may be true physically, it is not the case. The importance of positive workplace culture has been repeatedly highlighted in the research. Culture is linked to employee productivity, mindset, engagement, and empowerment. Getting your virtual team to that space is extremely essential.

It Starts With Leadership: your style of leadership is the glue that will hold your team together. Since your team is virtual, it’s not like you can visit them at their desk or look over their shoulder. What you need to work on is empowering your team to be independent whilst working as a cohesive unit.    You need to allow them to take ownership of their role and still encourage and foster a spirit of one goal and big picture realities.

Create a good virtual environment: the environment you foster will be the driving force behind your work culture as a virtual team. Creating trust and rapport between team members is a core factor that you need to encourage. You can begin by expressing this trust and then exercising that by not micromanaging, keeping expectations clear but also allowing them to do what they will, given these parameters. Make it clear that a win for one is a win for all but also acknowledge these individual wins.

Communication is key: How you communicate is extremely important, especially with a virtual team. The bottom line is that you need to set up effective communication channels and processes and use them. Find ways to have interactions beyond simply the work but allow your team to have a chance to get to know each other personally as well. Balance interactions mixing both business and fun.

Make it personal: when you make it personal, this means that you are fostering honesty and accountability thus boosting your work culture. Allowing your team to feel comfortable with being honest and to be accountable for their actions, good and bad, brings about a sense of loyalty that will also drive your team to work harder together.

Building a positive work culture for your virtual team is not impossible. Remote individuals physically apart can turn into emotional distance and discord in your team. By being a strong leader and laying down the groundwork to avoid that, you can have a successful team and a strong work culture too.

How to Find & Close Qualified, Motivated Real Estate Leads!

MOD Virtual Assistants, Real Estate

Finding leads is easy – there are tons of platforms out there promising leads galore with low, low monthly pricing. The question is whether those leads are worth buying – and feedback from agents typically is that those channels are oversaturated & filled with unmotivated tire kickers that make them a waste of time & money.

What you need is motivated, qualified leads that you know will close fast – and finding these is a whole other ball game. Learning how to find well-qualified clients is only half the picture here. Plenty of agents can get their phone to ring, but only experienced agents can keep their phone ringing consistently.

Find and close your qualified leads with the support of a MyOutDesk Virtual Assistant! Schedule a Double My Business strategy session today to find out how.

Here are some strategies to find and close your qualified leads:

Never Forget to Follow-up

Follow-up is where the money is. The key to knowing your market is listening to their needs and wants as buyers/sellers and connecting them. Statistics show that most salespeople stop following up after only trying twice, so persistent follow-up is essential. Keep in mind that you are selling high-ticket items, so to speak. It will take time for many people to be ready to bite the bullet and make the big move. Following up to check-in is over half the battle.  Create a systematized follow-up strategy and make sure you are tracking the progress of all your follow-ups.

Purchase QUALITY leads

In the past, we have discussed if buying leads is a worthy use of your resources. This is quite a polarizing subject, and you will hear opinions towards yay or nay across the board. However, being wise about purchasing leads can bring you a lot of good business. Look for a company that sells quality information and be picky about your purchase. Do your research and find lists that experienced lead companies procure. Purchasing willy-nilly will surely be a waste of your time and money. Keep in mind, Close even one of them, and you’re already in the black. Close two or three, and you’re getting a 200%+ return on investment (ROI) from your spend.

Bank on Referrals

We’ve shared numerous statistics about how amazing referrals can be for your business. TL;DR: Referrals are good. When you nurture relationships with your clients, you are investing in repeat business and referrals. If they love you, they will recommend you and send more business over. By far, referrals are more effective than any marketing strategy. Referrals will always get you higher closing rates than cold leads.

Share Insider Information With Your Audience

When you share a listing online, please don’t stick to the readily available facts they can find on any other website. Instead, share some insider knowledge. For example, does the home have an interesting history? Is there a secret nook or room? Did the aunt of someone famous live here for a period of time? Using little insider information drops like this can build trust because you are adding value through information.

Brand Plus Customer

A rising trend called marketing is a strategy where you are less brand-centric and more customer-centric when you market on different platforms. While your brand is still important, your main objective will be to ensure that your message speaks to your target demographic for each platform you use. The importance of the consumer experience is higher now than ever. This is because generation Z currently holds a lot of buying power, and so do millennials, each attracted to different types of messages. Keep this in mind when creating your marketing strategies, and as you adapt, you will find more quality leads that turn into more conversions for you.

Conclusion

These are just some of the strategies you can deploy to find higher-quality leads and actually convert them. But, whether you decide to utilize one or all of them, one thing is for sure. You need a strong team behind you to be successful. A MyOutDesk Virtual Assistant can be part of that team that takes you there. Book your Double My Business Strategy Session today!

When Virtual Assistant Mistakes Lead To Success

MOD Virtual Assistants

So, you’ve spent all this time creating the perfect business process. You hand it over to your Virtual Assistant (VA), walk them through it a few times and completely hand it off…. Then, all of a sudden, BOOM, they make a mistake. Maybe you’ll look into it, walk them through it a few more times, and then it never happens again. But then, what if it does? These scenarios can be frustrating and can lead to you thinking, “maybe a VA isn’t a good fit for my business” or “maybe I need to replace my VA.”

Before you act on these thoughts, you may want to consider that this might actually lead to more success for your business. This strong and detrimental belief has been a stumbling block to many clients and has led them to let the tools of scalable business success and real entrepreneurial freedom slip from their grasp.  Letting go of a VA because of a mistake may be a drastic measure, especially since the situation can be a learning opportunity.

Boost your business and find more success with a MyOutDesk Virtual Assistant! Book your Double My Business Strategy Session today to find out more.

Yes, you read that right. Mistakes that your VA makes could lead to success for you and your business. We’ve been around for15 years, and through all the feedback and stories we’ve had from over 7500 clients, we have deciphered one thing, if you shift your perspective and take a good hard look, mistakes by your VA could expose holes and problems in your processes.

First, keep in mind that it is not your fault or your team’s. For example, sometimes processes can look really good on paper or make complete and logical sense in the planning but can fall short in the execution. It may not be foolproof when used in different scenarios, etc.

Now, we aren’t simply making excuses for our fabulous Virtual Professionals. There are times when a mistake is a mistake, so you have to assess the situation, sometimes it can even be clear as day, but sometimes, their mistakes expose a chink in the armor, so to speak. They reveal a step in the process that could need tweaking or fixing, thus improving your processes and subsequently boosting your business.

One of our clients shared a story where their Virtual Assistant helped improve one of their processes. Our client, a realtor, was late in presenting a proposal to one of his potential clients. In this scenario, they saw that it was not exactly a mistake on their VA’s part but instead revealed a huge flaw in the process they had in place. After this happened (our client was unable to close the deal), their Virtual Assistant suggested and implemented changes to the process, and this incident never happened again.

One fundamental step in seeing the potential for success within a mistake is letting go of frustration and fear and, again, shifting your perspective from ‘who made a mistake’ to ‘why they make a mistake.’ Remember that any process needs adjustments and re-writes, and these need to happen before it is truly fool-proof, and the best way to find out is by testing it and looking at the mistakes like leaks in the dam, so you know what areas need restructuring or patching.

Once you and your team attain a full grasp of the mistakes and how they were made in the first place, proceed with what you can learn from them instead of pointing fingers and focusing on the mistake alone. First, asses the why and then figure out how to improve. You can even create a process around navigating through them and making them a part of your business process improvement exercises to avoid the same errors in the future. As they say, Rome wasn’t built in a day. It takes time and trial and error to figure out best practices, and mistakes should be seen as little gifts that present themselves to you to help build your way to success.

Four Huge Sales Trends Every Business Owner Must Know for 2020!

MOD Virtual Assistants

Are you on top of the latest business trends? You’d better be! It’s crucial to ensure that you are always relevant and continuously connect with your target demographic. The fast-paced world seems to give birth to trends left and right, and some may just be fads, but keeping up with them will show you the mindset of consumers and what they are looking for. You will then be able to adjust your strategies and keep your pipeline flowing consistently.

Stay on top of trends and get the support to keep up with the flexibility to meet your consumers’ needs with a MyOutDesk Virtual Assistant! Book your Double My Business Strategy Session today to find out how!

Here are four sales trends you need to know to dominate 2020.

#1 Focus on top-notch customer experience

According to statistics, 89% of consumers began doing business because of a poor previous customer experience. This means that they went elsewhere because they had a bad experience somewhere and searched for something better. Furthermore, statistics also show that 64% of consumers check reviews online before visiting a business. That being said, 2020 will be a year for laser focus on consumer experience. Having multiple options due to the rise of more businesses will cause consumers to be more particular to find exactly what they need.

So what does a better customer experience look like? Here are some factors to consider, based on consumer behavior studies:

  • Surveys revealed that 60% of customers feel that waiting on hold for just one minute is too long.
  • 92% of consumers read online reviews while looking for a local business.
  • A minimum of 10 and 12 positive reviews is needed to make up for one negative review.

Giving your customers a tailored, positive experience will not only guarantee repeat business but referrals as well. Fostering this opportunity to generate positive reviews and even rewarding loyal customers can do heaps of good for your business. Another major factor is having more knowledgeable sales reps or team members who will truly make your customer feel well cared for. Finding people who are focused on making a sale and prioritizing making a real connection can make a huge difference in the whole customer experience.

 

#2  Sales Enablement

Sales enablement is the development of providing a sales organization a process where they can gather information and help salespeople sell more effectively. The roots of sales enablement provide salespeople with processes and tools to build connections with a consumer throughout the buying process successfully. A huge part of sales enablement requires equipping salespeople with data that they can use in sales cycles. This information might look like customer-facing scripts, best practices, and sales training to name a few. Whatever form the information is in, it must be easy to consume and sustainable across the sales organization.

Sales enablement is a key factor in scaling the sales organization. It transforms a sales organization with a handful of overachievers into a reliable business with a team of rock stars.  It is fundamentally an effort to establish the principles of a successful salesperson.

Modern business owners are increasingly adopting sales enablement strategies, which will certainly continue in 2020. To stay on top of this trend, take the time to plan out a sales enablement strategy, from helping to onboard new salespeople as efficiently as possible to consistent coaching to your existing salespeople.

 

#3 Understanding Generation Z

Generation Z often takes a backseat to millennials as their buying power increases makes them a more appealing target demographic. However, Gen Z should get just as much attention because their buying power is just as ripe with potential. According to statistics, Gen Z currently accounts for approximately $29 – $143 billion in direct spending. Generation Z comprises the people who were born between the mid-’90s to the mid-2000s. Generation Z was born in an era where the transition of technology and the birth of social media happened. This means that there is a healthy mix of appreciation for both the traditional and the new. As a result, Gen Z can be a challenge to target. According to studies, Gen Z has an attention span of about 8 seconds—compared to the millennials’ 12. However, this is matched with a sophisticated filter that comes from growing up in a different era.

This year, Gen Z is expected to account for 40% of all customers. Even more astounding, one expert says, “Generation Z is one of the most powerful consumer forces in the market today. Their buying power is $44 billion and expands to $600 billion when considering their parents’ influence on their parents’ spending.  To tap into this demographic, you need to be aware of what makes them tick and what appeals to them. They generally gravitate towards authenticity and genuine connections. Do this, and you will find business opportunities that you will not find with any other demographic.

 

#4 The Omnichannel Marketing Strategy

Omnichannel marketing is one of the strategies you can employ to tap into the ever tricky Generation Z without alienating your other demographics. Omnichannel intends to use all of your marketing channels and platforms, both traditional and digital, in-store and online, to produce a unified experience for your consumers. So what is the difference between multichannel omnichannel? While both strategies employ the utilization of different platforms to target demographics, omnichannel is more consumer-centric as opposed to multichannel, which is focused on company branding. Multichannel marketing pushes the ‘what’ meaning of their branding and sends the same message to consumers regardless of the platform. At the same time, the omnichannel strategy is focused on who is getting the message and changes and adapts to the specific audience they may have depending on which platform it is being broadcast and how consumers interact with this specific platform.

According to studies, customers respond much better to an omnichannel marketing strategy. For example, for marketers using three platforms or more in their campaigns, omnichannel campaigns earned 18.96% engagement, compared to marketers using single-channel campaigns, which only received 5.4%. While higher engagement does not always mean higher revenue, these studies further found that businesses using omnichannel campaigns also saw a 250% increase in purchase rate.

These are some of the sales trends you will see in 2020. Improving your sales productivity and processes should be at the top of your priority list.

Staying on top of these trends and integrating them into your business processes will not be easy and maybe damn near impossible if you do not have a solid support system and the team behind you. A MyOutDesk Virtual Assistant can play a key role in ensuring that you can find trends that will work for your business and build processes for integration. Be sure to schedule your Double My Business Strategy Session to find out how.

Anya is the best. She listens intently to understand your needs and then goes to work finding the right person to help you go to the next level. Her communication could not have been better always... answering my questions and letting me know the next steps. I am confident our business will take a giant step forward with MyOutDesk.read more

MyOutDesk is a top-tier outsourced resource partner. I personally have 10+ years of experience working with vendor resources in Big Tech, and the level of service that my current Real Estate firm has... received with MOD has exceeded my expectations. Paul Vasquez, our sales consultant was patient, accommodating, and took the time to answer all of my nitty-gritty questions. The onboarding and staff selection process was a breeze, and we were operational within 1-2 weeks. The resource provided was having a positive impact on the business on Day 1, and continues to be a valued member of our team. I can easily say that we're not just saving money, but a ton of time, by working with MOD.read more

All I'm going to say is that my business has more than doubled in the first 3 months of working with Pearl, my very amazing VA from My MOD Desk. If you are stressed, weeded out from all the admin... duties a business requires on a daily basis, or if you'd simply like to scale your business and have more time on your hands to make more money, then I DEFINITELY recommend hiring a VA from My MOD Desk. I don't know HOW I would successfully keep growing my Real estate company without my amazing VA Pearl. HUGE thank you to My MOD Desk for connecting me with my amazing Administrative Virtual Assistant!Pablo Ramirez, P.A.Real estate Broker-AssociateUnited Realty Group, Inc.read more
