"In a tough financial market where every industry is feeling the financial pinch the best thing you can do for your sales is customer relations. If your industry is suffering a slow down in this market than now is the time to take that extra time and put your best customer relationship foot forward. Customer relations are vital in any market but especially now in difficult times like now. Make the extra effort to engage with your customer base, especially with all your previous customers.
A personal touch can go a long way to building a strong bond with your customers especially in difficult times. Make those phone calls to see how they are doing with their business and let them know you were thinking about them and as prior customers they will get your priority if they need assistance. Don’t email either make the phone calls, they go so much farther than an auto responder.
Develop promotions and package deals for your previous customer base as well and let them know. That you are aware of the difficult financial times and are willing to work with your loyal customer base. Small public relation efforts like these can go a long way to establishing customers that will stick with you in not only the good times but the hard times too.
Remember public relations is the key and great customer services is the best public relations effort you can put out there. Reach out to the local neighbors of your business as well, try and keep good synergy in your business community and work together to keep all your businesses a float and moving forward. If we all work together and build our community networks that will help to keep our community business thriving even in uncertain financial times like now. We are all stronger when we network and work together. Keep your focus on customer relations, it’s your best weapon against financial disaster."

12-05-2008 01:16 PMExcellent advice Frank. I forgot to add to my post earlier that I am also a partner in a little web company that has as it's main objective...To help others by showing them the examples of good successful business practices.
My partner and I, took the examples of many industry leaders and in good times and bad times, some of them always made money. By looking at what they were doing, sometimes you can see in your own business a similar situation and perhaps copy in some way what the successful firms did.
It is called Strategy Street and is at www.strategystreet.com
Enjoy.Light travels faster than sound....that is why some people appear bright until we hear them speak!!

I am a custom rug /carpet installer designer, also design the rugs and fabricate then either the common way cut pieces glued together hand carved aka inlaid or hand tuffed by hand and plain or carved. the tuffed are made with wool/silk. also nylon now so I will be creating some high end rugs for boats. Tuffed rugs have no binding on them. But I am at a stand still until my knee replacement is done. my install days are done but my wife will be running co since its hers. wholesale with a 12x 10= about 5000 and up. whats cool about the hand tuffed you can add colors and fade colors like a 50,000 paint job. theres no one doing this now anywhere. with the hand tuffing I had to come up with custom backings so they hold up to the conditions in your boat.
