Explore The Benefits Of Text Messaging For Your Business

Why does customer loyalty matter?  Statistics show that keeping existing clients is more affordable than attracting and acquiring new ones.  Loyal customers are likely to purchase more.  In fact, repeat customers spend almost 70% more in their second year than in the first 6 months with a business.  What's more, satisfied customers will recommend your product or service to people they know.
 

In the past decades, marketing was mostly done by print, TV, and radio.  Today, millennials are exposed to digital forms of marketing at an early age.  The internet and social media have created more opportunities for branding and advertising.  But at the same time, they have made the landscape a lot tougher as companies constantly look for new ways to outshine their competition.

 

Social communication has a significant role in attracting potential customers and making them stay longer.  Social networks provide businesses with an easy way to directly engage their customers.  Companies can interact with their audience by leaving comments, responding to mentions, and joining in conversations.  Without a doubt, customers will appreciate it if companies take the time to answer their inquiries or concerns in a timely manner.  

 

Customer reviews shouldn’t be viewed in a negative context.  On the contrary, companies should welcome them.  Keeping an open ear to both positive and negative feedback gives you a better picture of where your brand stands.  It can tell you your company’s strengths, weakness, and what you need to improve.  And through social communication channels, you can show a dissatisfied customer- and rest of the online world- that you appreciate their feedback.  With the same tools, you have the opportunity to turn a negative encounter into a positive experience, which in return will increase customer loyalty.

 

Are you looking for a way to nurture your customer relationships?  Use social communication channels to interact with customers and respond to their inquiries in a more personal way.
