Back in the old, old days, like…the ’90s, there was an axiom that said “the client is always right.”Time has challenged that phrase over and over again, and while the newest approaches to customer service have distanced away from it, we’ve also found some truth to it. Its true meaning was not to give the client everything they want but to try different approaches in order to keep them happy, satisfied with your services, and—even better—to keep them engaged with your business.
Let’s look at it this way, be it a physical or online store, you need to care about each individual customer—whether they are buying something or just browsing. The point is that you want that person to come back for more at some point. This means you don’t want that customer to leave angry or disappointed in your business. If they had a bad experience, they’re not only going to avoid your business in the future, but they may actively let all their peers know how bad was their experience was and tell them to not give you a chance.
On the other hand, the opposite is also possible!
Take a look at these 9 things you can do in order to keep your clients happy and engaged in your business. For example, your clients are the best source of feedback, so finding ways for them to let you know what they like or they don’t like about your business and implementing ways to address these is crucial. That way, your customers will not only be happy about coming back, but they would find it easy to recommend you to their friends and family.
