DESCRIPTION
This presentation will guide you through post purchase lifecycle messaging that will drive sales and generate repeat buyers. How much does it cost you to acquire new customers? Are you finding that they purchase once and then leave? You are losing customers every day, but chances are it has nothing to do with your products. It’s how you treat customers after the sale. This session will lay out proven post purchase messages that entice customers to come back and become repeat buyers along with how a post purchase series can help you stand out from the competition.
