Conversation is key to customer relationships

     Think about it. Can you get to know a new person you meet without having some kind of conversation? Whether it is in person, over email, or on a Facebook wall, there has to be some type of interaction in order to progress the relationship.
     Customer relationships are no different! It is important to go where your customers are (be that online, at a retail store, in their own place of business), get to know them, find out their needs, and start doing something different based on what you learn. Customer trust and relationships will build, and the best ones will lead to more customers as they tell others about you. Start the conversation!
