No matter what type of business you are in, customer service is one of the most important key to your success. Whether you own a snow cone stand, a car dealership, or a high end jewelry store that specializes in Akoya pearls, if you don’t treat your customers with respect and show them that you value their support, you have absolutely no chance of being successful over the long haul.
Are you looking for a way to let your customers know that you appreciate them? Would you like to find an inexpensive way to introduce prospects to your company? Why not hold a customer appreciation open house? You can invite your customers and prospects to tour your business, and encourage them to bring their friends and associates along with them. Choose attractive party invitations and send them out well in advance of the big day. You’ll need to provide refreshments and door prizes, and you might also want to schedule a special event, such as a free speaking engagement, fashion show, or charity fundraiser. Just remember to make the event fun, so people will want to attend.
