It costs seven times more to find a new customer than it does to retain one. We all know that retaining loyal customers is critical to growing your business. But loyalty isn't free; it needs to be earned. It starts with knowing your customers inside and out. The next step is to connect their different interests and needs to the marketing messages you send to them. Your direct mail postcard, print ad or email blast should be relevant to achieving each customer's desired objective. If not, your advertising will end up in the trash…and so will your future sale. Lastly, treat your loyal customers like gold. Don't just concentrate on selling your product or service; go the extra mile to fulfill their needs.

This month, we're celebrating loyal customers around the country and providing tips to keep your customers coming back for more.

Rave of the Month
Restored Faith in Online Business

Thank you, thank you, thank you all for the wonderful job you did.

In a day where you can never reach a live person let alone the same one twice, it was encouraging to deal with a company that puts so much emphasis on individualized customer service. I took a chance on your company after having stumbled across it on the Internet; I am thrilled with the results. Thank you again for restoring my faith in on-line businesses and for doing such a fabulous job!
