Southwestern Family Reunion in London
The United Kingdom Southwestern Family of Companies Family Reunion was ‘a smashing good time.’ We had Southwestern Alumni from all over the UK join together in London for companionship and sharing how working with Southwestern positively impacted their life and what they are doing now. One of the many inspiring Southwestern Alumni success stories from last night was Wall of Greats winner Elizabeth Garvey who shared that after developing her entrepreneurial skills at Southwestern, she went on to successfully start a growing chiropractic practice. Elizabeth said that her lessons learned from Southwestern about self-talk, creating and sticking to a winning schedule, understanding how to have persistence through obstacles and challenges, and never giving up have helped her have the confidence and skills she needed to succeed in business. This event in London was the 4th Southwestern Family of Companies sponsored “Southwestern Family Reunion” in 2019. These global SW family reunion events (two in the US and two in Europe) have been a highlight of the year. We are all a sum of our parts. The foundation that all of the 200,000+ Southwestern Family Alumni have created is the track for the Southwestern Family of Companies to run on. Without the […] Read More

Five Steps to World-Class Customer Experience
Watch here or read below: Congratulations on continuing to the five steps. You’re a student of the game and one of the few people who really want to know how to improve. Here are five steps of world-class customer experience: 1: Be a Customer A good place to start is to be a customer of the things we sell. Ask yourself if you personally use the products your team is promoting and selling. If not, start there. BE a customer. 2: Watch What the Best Do Pay attention. Read case studies. I look at some of the largest and best companies in the world, such as Zappos, Apple, Tesla, and Google. What are they doing to overdeliver? 3: Get Feedback Talk to your customers. Create a customer review panel. No matter what your position is within the company, create a committee and ask your closest customers to give feedback. What did they like about what you did? What did they not like? How did you overdeliver? How did you underdeliver? 4: Find Ways to Overdeliver How can we overdeliver and exceed our customers’ expectations this year? What are the little things we can do to […] Read More
