Taking time to thank your customers and employees for their relationship with you has real power. They are your partners in success and should be treated accordingly.
A study in The Journal of Marketing showed that when a jewelry store called and thanked a group of their customers, they subsequently spent 70 percent more than the group of customers who weren’t called. Thanking customers builds their relationship with you, and increases their loyalty to your business. Given the benefits of taking easy steps to nurture customer loyalty, can you afford not to show your gratitude?
The power of a simple thank you to your employees cannot be underestimated.
