When a potential recession looms on the horizon, it's crucial to retain the customers you've earned. Stable, predictable revenue is the key to smooth sailing through troubling economic waters. Customer retention helps make your brand recession-proof because..
Acquiring new customers is expensive! Focusing on boosting revenue through existing accounts means you can build on the hard work & dollars you've already spent. Providing concierge-level visual support to your customer base helps keep existing customers happy & returning to buy again & again.
Happy customers refer new customers! Some call it a "net promoter score" or NPS. However you label it, consistently wowing users can lead to customers spreading the gospel of your brand to their peers. Word of mouth from from customer to qualified buyers is a free, effective way to sell more.
Predictable cashflow trumps unpredictable markets!
