Your Franchise’s Success Depends on Both Customer AND Employee Experience

Today’s franchise organizations face critical challenges that traditional solutions aren’t solving:

Marketing campaigns might bring customers in, but service inconsistencies drive them away. Training programs create initial excitement but struggle to maintain momentum. And in today’s competitive market, you can’t afford to lose a single customer to a poor experience.

The key lies in the relationship between employee experience and customer experience – think of it as an infinity symbol (∞):

  • When employees are engaged and empowered, they create remarkable experiences that keep customers coming back
  • When customers are happy and loyal, it makes employees’ jobs more rewarding, increasing retention
  • This continuous cycle builds on itself, creating a culture of excellence across all locations

Leading franchises are discovering that the solution isn’t just about training – it’s about creating a customer-centric culture that:

  • Maintains consistency while preserving each location’s unique personality
  • Empowers employees to be both proactive and reactive in serving customers
  • Converts first-time visitors into loyal brand advocates
  • Drives measurable business results through increased visits, spending, and referrals

Through practical, easy-to-implement solutions, your franchisees will learn how to eliminate pain points and create memorable experiences for both customers and employees. Dan doesn’t just talk about experience; he creates one for your audience while teaching them to do the same for their customers.

The result? More customers who spend more, stay loyal longer, and tell others about you – creating sustainable growth across your franchise network.

Dan’s Most Requested Keynote For Franchises:

Why Customer Experience Is Your Biggest Competitive Advantage

Let’s face it: Competition is tougher than ever these days. Competing on price is a losing game — just ask the two gas stations across the street from each other. And competing on product is getting harder and harder as almost everything can be copied — just ask your favorite ride-share company.

So what’s left? How can we stand out in a crowded marketplace that is constantly evolving?

In this fun and engaging keynote, customer experience expert and former Fortune 500 executive Dan Gingiss will teach the audience how customer experience can be your company’s ultimate differentiator, creating a competitive advantage that cannot be copied.

Your franchise CAN compete on customer experience. When you create a remarkable experience for your customers, they become your best marketers and salespeople. The result is more customers, who spend more, are loyal longer, and recommend your company to others.

Audience members will walk away from this keynote with the inspiration and the tools to go back to work and create a deeper connection with your customers. And Dan Gingiss doesn’t just talk about experience, he creates one for the audience, too!

Key takeaways:

  • Learn the types of experiences people share most often and why.
  • Apply an easy, 5-step framework for creating remarkable, shareable experiences.
  • Leverage examples from many other companies across industries that have been successful with these simple, practical, and inexpensive ideas.
