Every business encounters obstacles, but only the successful ones overcome them. The good news is that the most significant problems are also usually the most common! We’ve chosen 3 foundational business problems you need to understand - are you facing these?


1. Lack of Customer Communication

New and existing customers want to feel connected to a brand and that their services and products are personalized.

One of the most common complaints from business owners is that they feel distant from their audience. New and existing customers want to feel connected to a brand and that their services and products are personalized. Address their concerns or add personal aspects to your content! On top of personalization, add more ways for your customer base to reach you. Expand your social media platforms or revamp your website so that it is clear to people interested in your brand that there are plenty of ways to get in contact.


2. Poor Customer and Employee Retention

Along with poor customer retention, poor employee retention is something many businesses struggle with.

Once you have accrued new customers, how do you keep them? One of the main reasons for low customer retention is the lack of dynamic content. Customers get hooked on your content initially, but once they see that it is changing, it will keep them invested. Along with poor customer retention, poor employee retention is something many businesses struggle with. The team behind your company is essential, so treat them as such! Offer incentives, bonuses, and rewards to show their work is valued.


3. Hiring the Wrong People

Make sure the people you hire have the same vision as the business and work well together.
