It's a common scenario: you've moved to a new town, and you've opened your new business there. But when it comes time to sell your services, all of your old customers have moved on as well. While it's not impossible to get customers from your old location, it can sometimes be difficult, especially if they're not in the same market as you are now.
Here are some tips on how you can get your old customers buy from you in your new location.
1. Make it easy for them to find your new location
In order to get customers from your old location, you need to make it easy for them to find your new location. That means posting a few signs in the area where you used to live and work, as well as on social media (Facebook, Twitter etc.). If you've moved into a new town or city that's not very well known, this may be a challenge but if you have lots of friends and family members in the area, they'll be able to help get the word out about your new business.
2. Offer incentives for customers who move with you
If someone already lives in your new location and wants to buy from you there, offer some kind of incentive like free shipping or a discount on their next purchase. You can even offer them something extra like a free set of earbuds or t-shirt if they buy from you while they're still living at home. This helps build trust with customers who have been loyal over time and will hopefully help them transition over to buying their products online later on down the road when they move away from home altogether.
