Participant comments on NRV Success Synergy Group

It’s almost been nine months since I was first invited to attend the NRV Synergy Sessions. At first I thought it was just another networking group but it has proved to be so much more. The time I have spent has proven to be incredibly rewarding and nourishing. I leave those sessions knowing I have learnt something practical…something I can do to improve my personal and professional life immediately.

Jeanie Patterson Spotlight Sponsor – January 2011

a continuation from WFIR interview with Jeanie Patterson on appreciation marketing.
What are some other tools to help businesses appreciate their customers?
Setting up customer reward systems. Businesses keep track of what their customer buys and then rewards them based on the amount they are purchasing, like all of the major credit card companies do now.
Another good one is customer appreciate events. Sometimes that can be as easy as an ice cream social. It doesn’t have to be elaborate or expensive, it just has to be executed in a way that your customers feel appreciated by you and your business.
Thanking and rewarding customers for their referrals. Ignoring the work and effort it just saved you for having that new customer referred to you or business instead of having to go out and obtain it on your own, is worth a lot!
If your a business to business situation, offering to bring your customer a free lunch is very much appreciated.
Don’t forget that your customers have multiple choices of companies to do business with and it’s easier than easier to find them, so appreciate them.
