your customers, is about the only way to make sure they STAY your customers.
If you are the type that only talks to your customers when there is a problem, then to keep them your customers, you now have to make them happy, and prove you care.
But if you talk to your
customers all the time by calling just to say hi! Or call to just ask, “How

You can do more than just call. In the area, drop by. Say hi! Yap, stop in and just say Hi!
The idea behind saying hi, is nothing new. It’s one of the first things you learn in doing route sales. You work your route by stopping by folks and saying hi. You then try to make that sale.
If you’re in business you’re in sales. And sales is all about talking to your customers. Throw in a little marketing, and research and you get valuable information.
Information? Hey, by asking two simple questions you can get a lot of information. Two questions?

So stop reading this article and go call a customer.
