The "Bottom Line"
In the highly demanding and stressful world most companies find themselves in, they are in need of instant
results: more exposure now, more customers now and more profits now! In that whirlwind we sometimes forget
that 100% of the time our customers are people.
They are humans; not just a figure on the bottom line of a spreadsheet. Therefore, a simple smile,
eye-to-eye contact, or even a handshake can make the world of difference.
How many billboards did you walk past today on your commute? How many did you write down the info for? How
many TV ads have you seen this week?
How many times did you pick up the phone to buy that product you saw? Get the picture?
How it Works
Our customer acquisition service saves time, money and the headache of establishing your own sales team. La Granson International will not use any of the traditional forms you may have already spent thousands or even millions on. Instead our face-to-face approach will be used to acquire your customers. This will also provide you with measurable results, which can be analysed daily, as opposed to quarterly, yearly, or even not at all. We will work closely with you to understand your needs and goals. You will guide us in developing an ideal customer profile, which will enable us to make appropriate suggestions for your campaign. Once we have established your needs, we get to work!

Assistant ManagerFrequently Asked Questions
-
Where do our consultations/meetings take place?
The meetings take place at the location of the customer. That's the great part about La Granson. The customer doesn't come to us, we go to the customer.
-
How are the customers acquired?
We are provided with leads of business customers that we are responsible for. We take care of the entire state of Cape Town and have partners all over the country.
We have 2 responsibilities:
1. We make sure our existing customers are happy and their needs are fulfilled.
2. Acquire new business customers for our client. -
Are there set paths for employees?
All of our managers started out as Account Representative and Management Trainees and followed a clearly defined career path that took them to where they are today.
-
Where are you looking to expand?
Since opening our doors in October 2007, we have already expanded into 30 locations. We are looking to continue our growth throughout the country and internationally.
-
What kind of marketing do you do?
La Granson provides a more personal connection between our customers and clients. Indirect marketing (Telemarketing, Television ads, Billboards, etc) lacks the face to face contact that customers desire. We believe our customers want to do business with a friendly face and a smile, which is what we provide.
-
Do you offer career growth opportunities?
On average, employees advance to a management position in 5 to 18 months. An exceptional work ethic, a great student mentality, and an overall eagerness to succeed will allow an individual to advance more rapidly.
