You can have no better option than a personal note as a follow up to a big deal done by a client, a great performance by an employee or for a customer who needs to be cheered up.

There are always a group of customers who earns you the major amount of profit. you can always go ahead and invite them for a social get together or a party on special occasions. You need to express that they are more than just customers to you. Spend some quality time with them and you will see the outcome for yourself.

You can always keep the warmth of your relationship with the clients through small gifts like flowers or books. Besides that you can also keep a day when you will formally express your appreciation to the customers who have been with you for a long time and make all your clients happy.

Make them feel that you are putting an effort to understand what the customer is saying. Don’t give them the feeling that they are only a way for you to make profit. Give them the feeling that you care for them.

Act to their demand. If the customer is complaining, write it down even if you don’t have to. If he asks a question, answer it. If you do not know the answer, then try to find it out. Never turn a deaf ear or a blind eye to a customer.

Emphasize on active listening. When the customer is speaking, listen. Do not interrupt. If you have to make a point, do it after he/she is done speaking. Once they are done talking, then speak and interact. After you are done, ask them if you were able to make it clear or not. Get a feedback from the customer about your service.

Put yourself in customer’s shoes. Try to understand what they need, what they are looking for. Your first job is to understand, not to be understood. If you want satisfied customer, listen more, talk less.
Be spontaneous and try to solve a customer’s problem on the spot rather than keep him waiting. Empower them with information and respect. Make them clear about your product and the warranty process and conditions. If you want a loyal customer, keep no catch.
