These are all great ideas, thanks as always for sharing! I also ask friends and family that are customers or potential customers to check out my website and the competitors website. (emailing a link to both is easiest) Then I say, please provide me with three things you like about theirs, mine and three things you do not like about theirs and mine.
Friends, family and customers you have a good relationship with will give you honest feedback. They want you to succeed as much as you! And you will not lose a potential sale with sending those you trust to your competitor’s website.
Cheers!

Sarah is exactly what I have been looking for to take my business to the next level. She brings a ton of experience to the table and saves time, money and headaches with her plethora of resources. I've had my business for 14 years and I've always felt like I was missing pieces for wholesale growth and online growth. Sarah filled that gap in more ways than I could have imagined. Our wholesale quadrupled in the first month of implementing her wholesale practices. We are just getting started and I'm excited to continue growing my business with Sarah as my go to girl for when I get stuck. If you're willing to put in the work, Sarah will take you to new levels in your business. I can't recommend Sarah enough! - Traci Dalrymple, Founder, Kokokahn Essential Oils![]()
