Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: It's time for your phone tap.
- 0:01Speaker 2: And there's a buzzword that's been going around the business
- 0:03Speaker 2: world in the last few years. It's called consumer loyalty. Like,
- 0:08Speaker 2: what's it gonna take to keep a customer from having
- 0:11Speaker 2: a wandering eye to try out a different product or
- 0:14Speaker 2: go to a new store. Companies are pretty much going
- 0:17Speaker 2: to try anything to keep you, whether that's you know,
- 0:20Speaker 2: coupons or extra deals, spamming your inbox, inboxing your spambox.
- 0:26Speaker 2: But I promise you nobody has tried this yet. Calling
- 0:30Speaker 2: a customer directly and saying, hey, we saw you shopping
- 0:34Speaker 2: somewhere else.
- 0:35Speaker 1: How could you do this to us? That's what we're
- 0:39Speaker 1: gonna do in a healthy relationship. It's your phone tap
- 0:43Speaker 1: right now. The twenties. Hello, Hi, I'm looking for Patrick.
- 0:54Speaker 3: Jess.
- 0:55Speaker 2: Hey Patrick, this is Dale. I'm assistant manager at Whole Foods,
- 0:59Speaker 2: the one you shop at on.
- 1:01Speaker 3: Oh what's just about? So?
- 1:06Speaker 2: Unfortunately, the reason for my call is I heard from
- 1:11Speaker 2: someone that you were at a Trader Joe's yesterday. Why
- 1:17Speaker 2: is that true?
- 1:20Speaker 3: I don't think I understand what I know.
- 1:23Speaker 2: That you're a loyal customer to Whole Foods. We see
- 1:26Speaker 2: you in here all the time. So when I heard
- 1:28Speaker 2: that information, it just made me sad, and it got
- 1:31Speaker 2: me thinking, did we do something wrong?
- 1:34Speaker 1: Is there a problem?
- 1:37Speaker 3: I'd said, but is this a joke? You're no calling
- 1:41Speaker 3: to no joke.
- 1:43Speaker 2: We pride ourselves in having a very loyal customer base.
- 1:47Speaker 2: So it'd be really helpful to me if you could
- 1:49Speaker 2: just give me some clarity here, if you could confirm
- 1:52Speaker 2: or deny that you were at that Trader Joe's.
- 1:56Speaker 3: Yeah, I swung through a Trader Joe's that happened to
- 1:59Speaker 3: be where I was.
- 2:01Speaker 1: You admit it, you went to TJ's.
- 2:04Speaker 3: What do you what are you talking? Look?
- 2:07Speaker 2: I need to ask you, friend of friend, have you
- 2:09Speaker 2: ever been cheated on before?
- 2:12Speaker 3: Why?
- 2:12Speaker 1: Because that's how it feels to me right now.
- 2:14Speaker 3: Look, man, I don't even know you. I do know.
- 2:17Speaker 1: Is that how it is now? We don't know each other.
- 2:20Speaker 3: If somebody came out to me, put a gun in
- 2:22Speaker 3: my head and said, is there a manager named Dale
- 2:24Speaker 3: at the whole is I wouldn't know. I had no idea,
- 2:27Speaker 3: And I don't know who told you this or who
- 2:29Speaker 3: bothered and who cares well?
- 2:32Speaker 2: I care Patrick because the less customers that we have
- 2:35Speaker 2: in our store the less staff that we'll have to
- 2:38Speaker 2: keep on.
- 2:39Speaker 3: I don't think it's said deep, Dale.
- 2:41Speaker 2: It's not deep. It's simple. You don't show up, we
- 2:44Speaker 2: have to let someone go.
- 2:47Speaker 3: Wait, so you're putting this a mee specifically.
- 2:50Speaker 2: I'm just saying you were always someone that we thought
- 2:53Speaker 2: we could count on for overspending on organic Italian sodas
- 2:56Speaker 2: in Cape Cod Trail mix.
- 2:58Speaker 1: But I guess that's not the case anymore.
- 3:00Speaker 3: Ironically enough, I did buy some sodas and trail makes
- 3:03Speaker 3: over at the Traders Joe's because their prices are way
- 3:06Speaker 3: better and the quality actually.
- 3:07Speaker 4: A little better.
- 3:07Speaker 1: So you're gonna rub salt in the wound.
- 3:10Speaker 3: I've got some salt. They got a good price on
- 3:11Speaker 3: it a TJ. So I did buy a can of
- 3:13Speaker 3: Sault too.
- 3:14Speaker 1: You're so proud of yourself, aren't you.
- 3:16Speaker 3: No, I'm just irritated with you. I'm not trying to
- 3:18Speaker 3: have my time wasted. You're weirdly trying to guilty or something.
- 3:22Speaker 3: Right now, I'm gonna go ahead and hang out.
- 3:23Speaker 2: No, well before you do, before you hang up and
- 3:26Speaker 2: never come back.
- 3:27Speaker 1: I just I want you to meet someone. Her name's Margie.
- 3:31Speaker 3: Who Hi, Yeah, that's Margie Okay.
- 3:37Speaker 2: She just started working here three weeks ago, and if
- 3:40Speaker 2: our numbers go down at our location anymore, then she'd
- 3:43Speaker 2: be the first one to go.
- 3:45Speaker 4: Are you hitting me with this?
- 3:47Speaker 1: Do you want Margie to lose her job?
- 3:50Speaker 4: Of course I don't, but listen, maybe maybe you should
- 3:54Speaker 4: lose yours for putting poor Margie up to this.
- 3:57Speaker 2: Let's not make this about me. Let's make this about Margie.
- 3:59Speaker 2: Who's aut to be unemployed here? Margie's or anything you
- 4:02Speaker 2: want to say to Patrick.
- 4:04Speaker 3: Margie, Margie, Margie. You don't got to say anything. You
- 4:07Speaker 3: don't got to listen to this.
- 4:08Speaker 1: Guy, Margie. Yes, you do. You have to say I'm
- 4:10Speaker 1: your boss?
- 4:11Speaker 3: Hi? Patrick, Hello Margie. It looked like they were hiring
- 4:16Speaker 3: it to Trader Joe's. You might want to go work
- 4:18Speaker 3: over there.
- 4:18Speaker 1: Why would you not shop here anymore?
- 4:21Speaker 3: Oh goodness, do not like us?
- 4:23Speaker 4: Come on, it's not about liking anything. I happened to
- 4:26Speaker 4: shop at a different store one time.
- 4:28Speaker 1: Patrick.
- 4:28Speaker 2: I think we both know this call never would have
- 4:30Speaker 2: happened if you didn't go to Trader Joe's.
- 4:34Speaker 1: This is on you.
- 4:35Speaker 3: Please don't stop coming to our store.
- 4:37Speaker 2: I have three cats, well, I wish you and them Margie,
- 4:41Speaker 2: shut up.
- 4:42Speaker 3: Hey, you do not tell this nick lady to shut up?
- 4:45Speaker 1: Well, you shut up too.
- 4:47Speaker 4: You know who called somebody on the phone in the
- 4:50Speaker 4: Milleday to confront them about shopping at some other store.
- 4:54Speaker 2: I don't know who calls somebody like that, Probably some
- 4:57Speaker 2: board radio host trying to do a prank phone call.
- 5:00Speaker 3: What was the name of one of my cats?
- 5:02Speaker 1: Prank? Yeah, that's sad.

- 5:13Speaker 1: You're on the radio with Brook and Jeffrey in the morning, and.
- 5:17Speaker 4: I thought that his Whole Foods manager had a weirdly
- 5:20Speaker 4: radio boy.

- 5:37Speaker 2: She said that you guys always shop at Whole Foods,
- 5:39Speaker 2: but he decided to try Trader Joe's the other day.
