In Small Business, Success Is Built On Your Relationship With Your Customers

Can we talk relationships? Isn't that everyone's favorite blog topic — right after Ikea furniture hacks and new ideas for avocado toast? And reading about relationships on a business blog? So fun! But seriously, this is a pretty important subject for you to think about. Of course, I'm talking about customer relationships, so if you were hoping I could help you with your SO, so sorry! (You wouldn't want advice from me anyway. But the reasons why are best saved for another blog site!)

OK, back to you and your customers. When you own a small business, your customer relationships have a lot to do with you. Many of your customers probably know you by name and they associate you with your company very closely. Depending on the type of business you have, they may not even think of your business name very often, just your name. So the way you relate to other people and what they think of you matters!

Are you shipping you & your customers? You should be!

Maintaining any good relationship takes work. So as hard as you work at producing a good product and being profitable, you should work just as hard at developing and improving your customer relationships. Periodically evaluate how and what you're doing to make sure you're responding to their needs — and anticipating them. Are you flexible? Do you make exceptions for customers, or go above and beyond once in a while? If you do, and they in turn sing your praises to others, that's free advertising for you. And it's also probably going to mean repeat business for you as well. So a little nurturing and some TLC can go a long way to helping your business be successful.
