ACTIONS
THAT DROVE TRANSACTIONS
Our strategy to boost Bell’s neighbourhood marketing efforts centred around building a high-performing sales team that could build more meaningful customer relationships. That’s what led us to develop a specialized neighbourhood marketing management program that provided comprehensive skills training and incentive programs to reward high achievers. But more importantly – the management program helped us instill a results-driven culture that had highly motivated employees connect with and understand customers on a new level. In addition – the Bell neighbourhood marketing team far outpaced its initial sales targets and drove more than 30% of new customer acquisitions. From a personnel perspective, OSL’s winning strategies helped expand the neighbourhood marketing salesforce by 300% – up to over 1,000 people – while dramatically reducing staff turnover and keeping effective team members on board.
