Word of mouth:- As we know that word of mouth is very essential for touch point of costumer

company and it will harm to make the new customer too.

1) Make personal phone calls whenever possible. This can be cumbersome, but the rewards
are well worth it. Especially in a service-type business, personal phone calls can be a gold-
mine of opportunity for you.
2) Distribute a newsletter. A newsletter is a wonderful way to stay in touch with clientele. It
keeps your company name fresh in people's minds, provides a forum for you to announce
specials, distribute coupons, and give helpful advice to people who need your services.
4)The winter holidays are an excellent opportunity to remind people that you value their
patronage. Plus, everyone is scurrying for gifts, and people are often too tired to think
creatively about what to buy for their relatives.
5) Give your employees power to make good customer service decisions. Nothing is more
frustrating for your customers than being bounced around from supervisor to supervisor when
they are trying to resolve a dispute. If you're paying your customer service staff to sit in a
chair and say, "no" to everyone who calls, you're spending a lot of money on losing your
customer base. Give your staff latitude and training to make good decisions in order to keep
your customers happy.
6) Offer gift certificates. Your customers will appreciate the convenience of gift certificates.
It allows them to give a customized present to their loved ones and it has the added bonus of
acting as a free advertisement for you.
7) Give to your community. How is this related to customer service? Your potential customer
base is very large. You and your company are members of a community, and that community
is your target market. Like as e choupal.
8) Create a network. Many of your clients and potential clients are business owners. The
scope of your business is finite by nature. If you know of another business that can meet the
specific needs of one of your clients, be sure to make a referral. This can work in your favor,
even if the other business is a competitor.
