I specifically like the point that your existing customer want to be loyal to you - the job then becomes making that both easy and rewarding. <br><br>The one thing I would add would be the use of content as a low cost strategy to continue adding value and building customer relationships. As an example, you mention sending newsletters as something that a lot of businesses would be doing anyway - I think the trick here is not using newsletters as a way of 'telling them about the business' but rather as a way of delivering really useful information. Information that makes them smarter, helps them make smarter buying decisions and builds a relationship.<br><br>Becky also mentions the need to understand the customer. I think content has value here as well - you can use content to become a trusted resource and answer their biggest needs. Instead of sending a basket from Amazon as a gift, how about sending a useful case study specific to their industry?Mark NagurskiSat, 20 Sep 2008 08:09:18 -0000http://www.jimkukral.com/do-you-have-happy-customers/#comment-2360792Thank you for having me talk about customer retention and Customers Rock! on the Daily Flip, Jim!
