Good Relationships…Good Business
By Sherri Davis-Garner President Styling Your Life Solutions www.stylingyourlife.com
601-896-8900
Too often, people in business focus on building the business and not building the customer experience. In business, it’s referred to as CRM (Customer Relationship Management).
Companies that practice CRM (Customer Relationship Management) and are good at it realize that the interaction with the customer is the focal point. Every point of contact between the customer and the company is key because a happy customer drives sales, growth and retention.
The reality is competition is tough! When you treat your customer with respect and value, your customer will return that value back to you. When your customer can’t get things resolved, can’t get in contact with you and can’t get quality, your customer will divorce you.
There are retention strategies which are smart solutions that should be used with your customers. They are:
1.) Communicating with your customer is not an option. When a client or customer provides feedback, immediately follow-up and follow-through.
2.) Find out what your customers like. Begin thinking of ways to add value to their experience. Stay in contact through social media platforms such as Facebook, LinkedIn and by phone.
3.) Resolve complaints immediately. According to Eastbridge Consulting Group, 70% of complaining customers will do business again if the company resolves issues in their favor.
In essence, never stop building customer relationships. Build loyalty so your customer doesn’t divorce you.

June 2020 OSHA Safety Tip of the Month!
COVID-19 Guidance on Social Distancing at Work
OSHA is committed to protecting the health and safety of America’s workers and workplaces during these unprecedented times. The agency will be issuing a series of alerts designed to keep workers safe.
Social (physical) distancing involves maintaining at least six feet of distance between people and is an effective way to help reduce the risk of exposure to the coronavirus. The following steps can help employers implement social distancing in the workplace:
• Encourage workers to stay home if they are sick.
• Isolate any worker who begins to exhibit symptoms until they can either go home or leave to seek medical care.
• Establish flexible worksites (e.g., telecommuting) and flexible work hours (e.g., staggered shifts), if feasible. • In workplaces where customers are present, mark six-foot distances with floor tape in areas where lines form, use drive-through windows or curbside pickup, and limit the number of customers allowed at one time. • Stagger breaks and rearrange seating in common break areas to maintain physical distance between workers.
• Move or reposition workstations to create more distance, and install plexiglass partitions.
• Encourage workers to bring any safety and health concerns to the employers’ attention.

What is the 2020 Census?
The count is mandated by the Constitution and conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau, a nonpartisan government agency. The 2020 Census counts the population in the United States and five U.S. territories (Puerto Rico, American Samoa, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Guam, and the U.S. Virgin Islands). In addition, it is required by law to participate; any household that does not respond will be visited by a census taker to complete in person.
Why the Census is Conducted
The census provides vital data that lawmakers, business owners, teachers, and many others use to provide daily services, products, and support for you and your community. Every year, billions of dollars in federal funding go to hospitals, fire departments, schools, roads, and other resources based on census data.
The results of the census also determine the number of seats each state will have in the U.S. House of Representatives, and they are used to draw congressional and state legislative districts.
It's also in the Constitution: Article 1, Section 2, mandates that the country conduct a count of its population once every 10 years. The 2020 Census will mark the 24th time that the country has counted its population since 1790.
When is the Census? April 1 is a key reference date for the 2020 Census. When completing the census, you will include everyone living in your home as of April 1, 2020. However, there have been adjustments made to the 2020 Census Operations timeline due to COVID-19. The revised schedule for responding to the census extends to August 14, 2020.
Why Your Count Matters
By participating in the census, you are impacting your community. Census results can influence infrastructure planning, various grants for public transit systems, how money is allocated for education grants and more.
How You Can Participate
➢ Mail - through a paper questionnaire mailed to your household ➢ Phone- 844-330-2020 ➢ Online – www.my2020census.gov

Lowe’s and LISC come together to support minority small businesses through $5 million in grants
Grants are the first in a series of efforts as part of Lowe’s $25 million community commitment to help minority-, veteran- and women-owned small businesses reopen and stay open
Lowe’s and LISC come together to support minority small businesses through $5 million in grants
Grants are the first in a series of efforts as part of Lowe’s $25 million community commitment to help minority-, veteran- and women-owned small businesses reopen and stay open
NEW YORK (June 10, 2020)— Lowe’s Companies, Inc. (NYSE: LOW) today announced $5 million of its previously announced donation will be distributed by the Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC), the nation’s largest community development organization, to help minority¬, women- and veteran-led, small businesses sustain operations and protect jobs impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.
The funding is part of Lowe’s more than $50 million in relief efforts since the pandemic began, including a $25 million community donation for small businesses throughout the country previously announced in May. Lowe’s donation through LISC will fuel emergency grants of up to $10,000 in historically underserved communities, as well as other assistance, to help owners navigate business challenges during the pandemic.
“Lowe’s has been committed to helping minority small business owners – the very backbone of our economy – rebound from the COVID-19 pandemic’s devastating impact,” said Lowe’s President and CEO Marvin R. Ellison. “Helping people make their homes better extends beyond our walls and into our neighborhoods, communities and country. We’re proud these grants will be a first step in helping minority-, veteran- and women-led, small businesses, many of which have been disproportionately impacted by the pandemic.”
LISC CEO Maurice A. Jones applauded Lowe’s ongoing commitment, noting that it will take a robust investment of public and private resources to spur economic recovery and bridge opportunity gaps that affect the well-being of millions of Americans.
June 2020
“The need for this kind of relief is overwhelming,” said Jones. He noted that when LISC began offering small business rapid relief grants in April, it saw more than 50,000 applications in just the first four days, and another 200,000 for subsequent funding. Two-thirds of the initial applicants are businesses owned by minorities, veterans and women. Forty percent are in distressed locations, and nearly half have been in business for more than 10 years.
“Too many of our country’s small businesses have not been able to access conventional relief programs,” Jones said. “They need capital, right now, if they are to continue to provide vital goods and services to their communities and help drive long-term recovery and growth. We are grateful to Lowe’s for their strong commitment to doing just that.”
Today’s announcement is the next step of Lowe's ongoing support of communities during the pandemic, including providing more than $10 million in essential protective products for medical workers, purchasing $1 million worth of flowers from small business growers to be donated and delivered to senior living facilities for Mother's Day, and providing personal protective equipment (PPE) to minority businesses reopening.
To date, LISC has raised more than $17 million for COVID-19 rapid relief grants and helped 955 organizations access $91 million in federal Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans—including nearly 200 PPP loans funded by LISC. LISC’s COVID-19 efforts continue to focus on support for small businesses and nonprofits led by women and minorities in economically vulnerable communities.
