Humans of TapMango: Milani This week, we’re featuring a spunky and down-to-earth Human who is leading the charge as a Team Lead and Account Executive. Get to know what drives Milani to empower small businesses every day. What are some of your hobbies and interests? I’m really boring, to be honest. If I were to pick something to do on a free day, it would be binge-watching garbage reality TV. I watch it all – The Bachelorette, The Bachelor, everything on MTV, The Challenge, Teen Mom, Are You the One… Terrible shows, I would not recommend, but to me they’re television gold. Also napping and eating. What food could you…
Humans of TapMango: Matthew Our next Human of TapMango is an incredibly well-travelled software developer named Matthew. Read all about his TapMango internship below. Tell me a little bit about where you grew up. I grew up in Turks and Caicos, a small group of islands south of the Bahamas. There I went to a small kiteboarding school of 20 students. Together we kiteboarded and travelled to all parts of the world. We didn’t stay in one place for more than a month. How many countries have you been to? Oi, I don’t know. Someone counted. Probably in the teens. Which of them was your favourite? South Africa was my…
Humans of TapMango: Jeff Welcome to the first installment of our new series, Humans of TapMango! First up on the hot seat is Jeff, a former mechanic turned auto-industry-consultant. So Jeff, how’s your day going? It’s been busy lately! Last night I started puppy-proofing my house for my new European Doberman. Can’t wait to meet him! Other than that, what are some of your hobbies or interests? I love working on cars, painting Warhammer miniatures, watching Netflix, and trying new cuisines. Since you have a passion for cars, what would be your dream car? When I win the lottery, I’m buying myself the Pagani Huayra. What about Warhammer? What’s your favourite…
Exposing Your Business at Expos: Using Loyalty to Network and Grow Your Business at Trade Shows As a small business, you really do have to be the jack of all trades – trade shows that is. Festivals, conventions, and expos are a fun way to introduce your brand and products to thousands of potential customers. Your services may speak for themselves and drive sales at these events, but a customer engagement platform makes sure customers keep coming back long after the booth is packed up and the show is over. Add a splash of innovation to your next trade show and give your customers a good reason to sign up. …
The Customer Loyalty Craze In today’s day and age, as a small to medium business owner you must ask yourself (and if you don’t, you should), what can you do to ensure that your customers keep coming back to you and how to attract new ones along the way? Is it possible to inspire that feeling of customer loyalty towards a brand and more importantly, if it is, why isn’t everyone doing it already? For anyone who has ever heard of the Starbucks Rewards program or CVS ExtraCare Rewards, there is a good reason why you have (and if you haven’t, clearly something’s wrong). Larger retailers have already been doing it…
