Customer Retention: How to Keep More Customers

Retaining a customer is much cheaper than recruiting a new one. Good customer retention is therefore an important pillar of the success of many companies. Fast and competent customer contact plays an essential role in this. After all, the faster customers receive answers to their questions, complaints and objections, the greater the chance that they will remain loyal to your brand.

We offer insight into the opinion of customers about your services and products and build and manage external customer service teams. These teams are available for your company 24/7 and contribute to better customer retention and higher customer loyalty.

What is customer retention?

Customer retention is the extent to which you are able to retain your existing customers for your business. This is often expressed in a retention percentage, also known as the retention ratio. You can calculate this percentage by comparing the number of new customers during a certain period with the number of customers who left you during the same period.

It goes without saying that every business wants to retain as many customers as possible, but customer retention is also important in other areas. For example, a higher retention rate usually leads to a higher ROI and loyal customers purchase more and more often than new customers. These satisfied customers will also recommend your brand to others and thus contribute to your lead generation.

How can I increase my customer retention?

Increasing your customer retention is an easy way to boost your ROI and give your business a stable revenue foundation. There are several strategies you can use to improve your retention rate, but at their core, most strategies revolve around optimizing your customer contact.

After all, the better the contact with your existing customers, the greater the chance that they will remain satisfied and loyal. Fast and competent customer service is therefore worth its weight in gold. By giving your customers direct advice about services and products, both the return percentage and the chance of dropouts are reduced. A strong and long-term customer relationship is simply good for all parties
