Businesses that want to flourish need to stay connected with customers. Customers have a number of options to consider, so the business should do more. What's right for you depends on your business model, the nature of your customers and what you want to accomplish by contacting them.

Here are three strategies for keeping staying connected with customers:
* Email marketing campaigns. The most basic way to keep in contact with customers is via email. This can be as simple as sending an automated email after someone buys from you, or it can be more complex, such as sending out personalized emails based on customer behavior.

* Social media. Social media is about sharing content and interacting with people who are interested in what you do. It's a great way to build relationships with potential customers and establish yourself as an industry leader — but it won't necessarily convert those relationships into sales. You need a strategy beyond just posting on social media if you want to turn followers into buyers.

* Blogging. Blogging is one of the best ways to build credibility among potential customers and establish yourself as an expert in your field — which will help when it comes time to pitch products or services at higher price points down the road. But if all you're doing is posting content without responding to comments or engaging with readers, then there's little point in blogging.

There are a number of ways to stay connected with your customers. One of the most important is to make sure you are accessible. This means having a variety of contact methods available, including a phone number, email address, and social media accounts. You should also make sure your website is easy to navigate and that the checkout process is simple.



Another way to stay connected with your customers is to keep them informed about what you are doing. This can be done through email newsletters, blog posts, or social media updates. You can also offer them special discounts or rewards for being loyal customers.



Finally, In order to stay connected with your customers, it’s important to have a social media strategy in place. This includes identifying your target audience, understanding their needs and interests, and creating content that resonates with them.



You should also consider using social media monitoring tools to track what people are saying about your brand online. This will help you identify potential areas of improvement, and respond to any customer complaints quickly and effectively.

I am not sure if you can actually remain connected with your customers through blogging because I don't think your customers will come back to your blog again and again to read your blog post. However, I believe you can connect with your customers through social media and email marketing. For instance, someone bought a product from you. You can ask the buyer to follow you on social sites and even leave his review. You can tell your buyer that by following you on social sites, the customers will get news about new offers, sales, and discounts. In order to make your customers continue following the page, you will have to share interesting content. Email marketing is also an interesting way to connect with your customers. You can send personalized emails to check what your buyer is doing and how he is doing with the product. Email is good after-sale support.
