How to Build Evangelists for Your Brand with Leslie Greenwood

This episode of the Live Better Sell Better Podcast features Leslie Greenwood, Founder, and CEO of Chief Evangelist Consulting. The future of sales is customer-led, evangelist-led, and community-led.

Leslie shares her insights on how salespeople can best serve their customers and grow their businesses through evangelism, a grassroots way of taking care of customers and building a community that organically speaks about your product without being told to do so.

Leslie emphasizes how important it is for companies to create a connection with their customers beyond just the product. People want to feel like they are part of something, and if a company can create that feeling, they will be much more successful.

HIGHLIGHT QUOTES

Build your community by establishing your values first - Leslie: "This is an investment and it's a long-term investment. So some of the things, like I talked earlier, it's what are the values of the company, values of the community, what will be your competitive advantage over other communities? How are you going to differentiate yourself? Then what challenges do your community members have that you're going to be able to solve?"

Research your community and prepare a 30-day content calendar - Leslie: "You definitely have to have a content calendar. You should have, at least, 30 days of content before you start. If you've done your research, you already know what they want to talk about, what their pains are, what they think the value is of the community. You just take that and you put a content calendar out."
