'Biggest challenge for small businesses is how to leverage small successes into larger ones,' says Herby Duverne

Interview with Herby Duverne
Herby Duverne, CEO of Windwalker Group, discusses the best practices for developing strategic partnerships, brand awareness strategies, the best way businesses can tackle challenges, and more. Continue reading to find out more about Human Capital Development via Corporate and Government Training.

For a business to succeed, the most important requirement is consistency in the company’s culture.

MEDIA 7: What do you require to succeed in a business?
Herby Duverne:
Foremost, thank you for this opportunity to share my thoughts with you and your audience. For a business to succeed, the most important “requirement” is consistency in the company’s culture. Once an owner or set of stakeholders determine who they are in the ecosystem of the economy, it is important to transparently and consistently uphold the ideals that brought them into business.
While services and products may change, a company’s culture is a bedrock of consistency.  With that consistency of culture, the second ingredient to success is tenacity, being able to have the tenacity to stick things through when difficulties arise (and they will).  Helping to bring tenacity into focus allows an organization to be resilient through challenges while being clear-eyed about moving forward for growth and success.

M7: Where do you see Windwalker in the next five years?
HD:
Coming out of the Global Pandemic, Windwalker has re-invested into our company’s corporate structure and leadership, and as a result, I feel that we are very well-positioned for sustainable growth.  We have a very clear direction aligned with a set of Brand Standards that will allow us to consistently bring value to our partners.  With that in mind, I see Windwalker becoming a regional standard for Protection & Preparedness, while also growing Nationally for Government Services.  Lastly, we are excited to see Windwalker bring forth the next evolution in Commercial Training with WindawalkerXP – which progresses the concept of “training” towards “Human Capital Development”.  We have taken advantage of our years of experience in developing people, and with the recognition that people have changed their learning habits, have created a truly special product that I believe will excite the marketplace!

Entrepreneurship is amazingly rewarding – and there are significant opportunities for anyone willing to put the time, energy, and leadership into their vision.


M7: What are your top 3 key marketing strategies for making your business customers ready?
HD:
Windwalker’s Marketing Strategy is rooted in the principle of our business – we don’t have ‘clients’ we have Partners.  As such, the first key marketing approach is “Developing Partnerships”.  This takes time, and as a foundation of our marketing approach, we strategically look to develop relationships that enable our partnership development, as a key part of our market plan.  The second strategy is to maximize our brand awareness, and we are taking steps to innovatively break the mold so that Windwalker’s becomes synonymous with a positive and evocative potential partner response, this is built upon a foundation of internal Brand awareness.  The third strategy for our team is to shore up our foundational applications of marketing and sales processes, using tools and systems of operations to ensure that no potential partners are left without the ability to take advantage of the values we bring to the market.

M7: According to you, what are the significant challenges faced in small businesses today?
HD:
The biggest challenge for small businesses is how to leverage small successes into larger ones. We compete in a marketplace that is dominated by low-cost LARGE competitors. They are able to hold onto their market dominance due to the fact that they can spread overhead costs much more easily than a small business can, and as such keep their prices exceptionally lower. In that aspect, it is essential for small businesses to take stock of who they are, and how they can bring value as a differentiator.  For Windwalker that means our Brand standards of Partnership and being directly accessible to our customers is essential.

M7: What would be your go-to advice for our budding entrepreneurs?
HD:
Entrepreneurship is amazingly rewarding – and there are significant opportunities for anyone willing to put the time, energy, and leadership into their vision.  While big businesses may appear to dominate the landscape, our Country’s and Commonwealth’s leadership have seen the value that small businesses bring – and have provided vectors for businesses to succeed.  An entrepreneur must learn where those vectors are provided, and stay vigilant in taking advantage of them.

PR Newswire | January 12, 2024

Rokt, the leading ecommerce technology company using machine learning and AI to make transactions more relevant to each shopper, today announced it has agreed to acquire AfterSell, a Shopify and Shopify Plus partner that helps ecommerce merchants upsell and cross-sell. Through the acquisition, Rokt will strengthen its SMB offering and expand its client portfolio to more than 20,000 SMB merchants, while giving them access to the same network and powerful AI technology built for large enterprises. The transaction is expected to close by February 1, 2024. Terms of the deal were not disclosed. The acquisition will build on Rokt's own Shopify app, Rokt Ecommerce, which leading merchants such as BlendJet and True Classic use to unlock additional revenue and provide a more relevant shopping experience to their customers. Rokt Ecommerce optimizes the checkout process, from the cart to confirmation page, and deepens brands' customer relationships by presenting highly relevant offers to each shopper during the transaction moment. AfterSell enables Shopify merchants to increase sales with personalized cart, checkout and post-purchase upsells. Brands including Good American, KitchenAid, HexClad, Miami Heat and Bloom Nutrition use AfterSell to increase AOV and customer retention. The AfterSell product offering also includes UpCart, a fully featured cart drawer specifically designed to increase AOV and reduce cart abandonment. Rokt will further invest in its SMB Shopify offering by combining the complete capabilities of AfterSell and UpCart with the existing Rokt Shopify app to build a more robust product for merchants. AfterSell was co-founded by Armon Shokravi, Dhruv Patel, Landon Fuhr and Varun Kundra in 2019. "AfterSell has built a brilliant roster of SMB clients on Shopify and has garnered hundreds of five-star reviews from merchants, which is a testament to how well it delivers," said Bruce Buchanan, CEO of Rokt. "This acquisition strengthens our competitive advantage by enabling us to better serve SMB customers and provide access to advertisers that aren't typically available to them. We're also thrilled to bring the AfterSell team's knowledge and expertise into our organization." This acquisition provides more tools to Rokt Shopify app users to enhance their customers' shopping experiences while boosting revenue. Additionally, Rokt Shopify users can now look forward to enhanced assistance from AfterSell's Canada-based team, which Rokt plans to grow significantly in 2024 and beyond. Rokt's exclusive, closed marketplace leverages intelligence powered by more than 5 billion transactions across hundreds of leading ecommerce businesses, allowing merchants to create a seamless customer experience while also controlling the types of offers eligible to be displayed to their customers. The acquisition news follows a year of significant growth and new initiatives for Rokt, including a partnership with Formula 1's 2023 championship team, Oracle Red Bull Racing, as well as several key appointments to its executive leadership team, including Chief Product Officer Srishti Gupta and Chief Marketing Officer Doug Rozen.
