🎉

When: Numbers are UP

Call the client to celebrate. Share the wins. Ask for a case study or referral.

⚠️

When: Numbers are DOWN

Call the client BEFORE they call you. Explain what happened and the plan to fix it. Transparency builds trust.

📞

When: Client goes quiet

Reach out proactively. Send a quick insight or competitive update. Show you're thinking about their business.

🔄

When: Renewal approaching

Start the renewal conversation 60 days early. Present a results summary and future roadmap.

Kim's Golden Rule

Never just send a report — explain the report. Connect our marketing metrics back to their inventory movement. Make every client feel like they are our only client.
