Boost customer loyalty with free appreciation email templates from LiveAgent. Enhance satisfaction, engagement, and retention with thank-you emails, including holiday discounts, loyalty rewards, and welcome notes.
Customer appreciation emails are a critical component of any successful business strategy. According to the Gartner Group, as much as 80% of a company’s future revenue will come from 20% of their existing customers. This statistic underscores the importance of building long-term relationships with customers and nurturing customer loyalty.
The Rockefeller Corporation study revealed that 68% of customers leave a business relationship because of a perceived attitude of indifference from the company that’s serving them. Another survey by ClickFox reported that 62% of consumers don’t believe that the brands they’re most loyal to are doing enough to reward them.
An appreciation letter gives customers a sense of reassurance, shows the human face of your brand, and reassures them that you appreciate your customer’s business. Well-crafted thank-you emails sent at the right time can increase customer satisfaction, drive more engagement, and improve loyalty and word-of-mouth.
Other customer appreciation examples that can help build relationships include sending hand-written cards with a few words of appreciation, hosting customer appreciation events, offering gifts, and more.
