335 - How To Encourage Customers To Buy More With Afterpay's Nick Molnar. - a podcast by PodcastOne Australia

Nick Molnar has figured out how to encourage customers to buy more. He is the founder of Afterpay, a simple payment system that lets customers buy what they want today (in fact, they can take it home immediately), then pay for it over 4 equal fortnightly installments. It’s also proving a great way for retailers to sell more. Here's how Afterpay works for merchants.

We cover plenty of ground in this chat including:What Nick learnt working in his family's retail jewelry business
How to encourage customers to buy moreHow the idea for Afterpay came about
How Afterpay enables retailers to increase salesHow Nick rallied his most loyal customers to do his marketing
Plus plenty morePlus I launch a new segment called What Have You Got To Lose? in which I share one simple yet effective marketing idea that you can go and implement immediately. An idea that won't cost a fortune (if anything) to implement, and that might just generate you more awareness, more enquiry, and ultimately more sales.

  MY TOP 3 MARKETING ATTENTION GRABBERS 
Be customer-centric. Never stop looking at your business through the eyes of your precious customers. Be a customer of your own business. Ask customers what they think. Hold focus groups. Do whatever it takes to make this a fundamental tenant of how you grow that beautiful business of yours.Get your customers to do your marketing. Nick’s social media push asking AfterPay customers to encourage their favourite retailers to get AfterPay is genius. What can you get your tribe to do?


Know your numbers. This one scares a lot of business owners. But chunk it down. Start by identifying two or three metrics that you could track on a daily basis. It might be website traffic, phone enquires … maybe even sales! As you start to see trends, then put in place ideas to see if you can effect a positive change to these numbers.  RESOURCES&LINKS MENTIONED
