Remember when we talked about social proof and how other people’s opinions can make your business popular? Today, we’re going to learn about something even cooler: The Surprise and Delight Effect! It’s like a secret recipe for making your customers not just happy, but SUPER happy!
The Surprise and Delight Effect is when you give your customers something even better than what they expected. It’s like ordering a small ice cream cone and getting a giant sundae instead!
Here’s a simple way to think about it:
Customer Happiness = What You Give Them – What They Expected
If you give them more than they expected, they’ll be extra happy!
First, you need to promise something that people want. This gets them excited to try your product or service.
Example: “Our Fantastic Friendship Bracelets are colorful and fun!”
Then, give them something even better than what you promised. This is the surprise that will make them extra happy!
Example: Include a free matching necklace with every bracelet order.
Don’t tell everyone about the extra special things you do. Let it be a nice surprise!
Example: Don’t advertise the free necklace. Let it be a happy surprise when customers open their package.
Promise: “Your Awesome Art Kit will arrive in 5-7 days.”
Surprise: The kit arrives in just 2 days with a personalized thank-you note!
Promise: “Join our Cupcake Club for a free cupcake on your birthday.”
Surprise: On their birthday, members get a free cupcake AND a small ice cream!
Promise: “Our Toy Repair Shop fixes broken toys in 3 days.”
Surprise: The toy is fixed in 1 day, and they’ve added new batteries for free!
