Treating your customers really well *after* they buy is just as important as pulling out all the stops before they buy. One of the most efficient ways to grow your business is to increase the lifetime value of a customer, which means getting them to buy again and again. So when your investment in customer acquisition is complete, a quick pivot to buyer retention pays off in dividends that can (and should!) last for years. #customerretention #relationshipmanagement #rewardloyaltywithgiftcards #corporateincentives #egiftcardpromotions
