There is no business which can operate successfully without the patronage of the customers. Customers are the root behind any business. The aim of every business is to maximize sales and for this sales to take place, the patronage of customers is important. When setting up a business, the major challenge is retaining customers and this can be done creatively in diverse ways. A business owner should create a friendly and conducive environment for customers.


There are some shops or business organization that even from the entrance of the door, one can be made to feel uncomfortable due to poor customer service or other factors. Giving discounts to customers on the first purchase can create a friendly mindset and enhance customers patronage as well.

Recent business owners soon learn that customer acquisition is both challenging and expensive. It takes a lot of work and a lot of money to find new customers, so it's important to get the right people in the door the first time. But how can you tell who will be a good fit for your business?

Understanding Customer Profile

To effectively acquire new customers, you have to understand what kinds of people are most likely to buy from you. The most important question to ask when looking at your customer base is, who is buying from me? If you don't know their demographic information, you can't learn from their behaviors—and you won't be able to attract more like them.

The best way to start gaining an understanding of your customer profile is simply by asking your customers questions about themselves. You can even do this once they've made their first purchase: send them a quick email asking how they heard about your company and why they chose you over other options.

You should also ask yourself questions about your ideal customer: what do they value? What do they need? What do they want?

Once you have a better idea of who your customers are, it's important to figure out who you're not attracting yet—and why. Even if you're interested most in other customers, it's not enough to depend only on them.

To make a particular business effectively and correctly recognised by members of the public to come and patronize you is absolutely not easy but there are some proven ways that you can use to increase the size of your customers and clients that patronise you in a particular day or week . One trick that business owners use today to boost patronage from members of the public is by giving their customers and clients a free gift if they recognise you . And now this free gift does not come as in every time but rather it usually comes at the end of a particular month and saw your customers and clients knowing that you will be giving out free gifts on that particular month can choose to patronize you much more on that particular month .

To boost patronage from members of the public the normal way you can try increasing the quality and the value of your business goods and services that you sell . By increasing the quality of the goods and services that you sell you can win the loyalty of your various customers and client that patronizes you and in this way your business profit and income would be boosted .

A business without customers is useless, without a customer there is no business. So, you have to strategize ways to attract customers.

Offer customers discount and promotions to make them prefer your goods or services to others. Bargains like these can attract new customers who have been considering doing business with you but needed an incentive to actually change their shopping habits. Handing out free stuff may not seem like the most logical business plan for a small business, especially when you’re starting out on a lean budget. But this is one instance when it pays to sink a little upfront money into making more money later.


Be loyal to your customers, make them trust your work, then ask them for referrals, you could give them some commission for referring more customers to you. Current customers are one of the best sources of new customers, you can use them to get others.

Depending on your target demographic, that may mean advertising online, in newspapers, or even on billboards. If your budget is too tight for that kind of expenditure, social media offers a great way to reach lots of consumers for free. Create a website also and build it up so, the audience can trust you. Then you create captivating adverts to entice your customers.

In order for business to run smoothly and profitably, every entrepreneur needs customers. So that every stage in running a business will focus on customer needs. Including in carrying out various marketing strategies. Of course all existing forms and media are ways of attracting new customers, but we must not abandon the old ones. How to keep old customers is as important as getting new ones.
There are many simple ways to expand your base and get more customers for your business. Here are the steps that need to be taken in order to get more customers, among others:
1. Understand the business and products
Business people must understand deeply about the business and its products so that entrepreneurs can explain thoroughly to customers.
2. Identify who your customers are
Businesses need to identify who their customers are, men, women, children, for the upper, middle or lower economic circles who will use your product, so that businesses have a clear and targeted marketing group.
3. Take advantage of social media
Social media can reach the wider community. Different demographics of people use different platforms. If you want to market products to young people you can use TikTok, if you want to market to young people, adults and old people can use Twitter, if general products can use Facebook.

Attracting customers to your business is a matter of building relationships and trust. Here are some ways you can do that:

1. Be sure to use the right language in your marketing materials. This means using words that describe what you're offering, rather than focusing on the features of what you're offering.

2. Make sure your website is mobile-friendly. If someone sees your ad on their phone, they'll be less likely to interact with it if they have trouble accessing it from that device.

3. Make sure you're using local SEO techniques—this means including your city name in your meta description tags, as well as tagging all of your pages with keywords related to where you're located.

4. Have a well-designed logo that conveys your brand's message effectively and clearly

5. Use effective copywriting on your website to make it easy for people to understand what you do and why they should buy from you

6. Stay active on social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter; this will help connect people with your business, who then may become future customers.
These strategies might take some time to yield. You have to be determined so you can achieve your goal.

The best way to attract potential customers to your business is through customer service. Though some might argue that advertising is the best way to attract customers, but the truth of the matter is that advertising might only attract them to your business, but it would not make them stay. Your customer service is what would actually determine if they would return or not.

Attracting customers is one of the difficult tasks that a buyer may face. It is always difficult to get people convinced to come to our terms and conditions. Then we need to identify what we can do to make them stick to us.

Good customer service: the first thing is good customer service. We need to make sure that there we have good customer representatives who will be attending to the needs of the potential, new and existing customers. No doubt, customers love to be treated like kingd and they must be treated that way. Calling and asking after them and their review on the products may go a long way.

Selling quality things: to be honest, most people prefer buying quality over quantity. When a seller is known to be a quality seller, there is tendency that many people will make him their customers. I know someone that always have many people in her shop because they know she sells quality things at affordable price.


Selling at affordable price: we need to consider our buyers before fixing.excess price just for much gain. Whem our quality goods and products are affordable, we are automatically attracting more people to be our customers.

I cannot agree less with what the last commentator said. There is the need to first of all have value for value for what we have. This will help us to find suitable place to situate our business. This is to say, good location is one if not the first step to take while attracting customers. No matter how good what we are selling, the moment we don't have good location for it, there is tendency that we may not get as many customers we may wish to get.

For the fact that we sell quality things doesn't mean that we should not try our best on marketing our goods and services. We can get this done by making sure that we advertise our products on social media or any availabile means at our disposal. Though, considering the cost, social media seems the cost effective one.

Just like the last commentator said, we need to make sure we put into consideration into the satisfaction of our customer. When they are happy, they are easily readily available to refer us to some of their friends as we. The business only grows when our customers refer their friends to be our customers as well.
