1 Offer exclusive rewards and perks

One of the easiest ways to create a sense of exclusivity and improve retention rates with customer service is to offer your customers exclusive rewards and perks for their loyalty and engagement. For example, you can create a loyalty program that rewards your customers with points, discounts, freebies, or access to special features or content. You can also offer your customers personalized recommendations, coupons, or invitations based on their purchase history, preferences, or feedback. These rewards and perks will make your customers feel valued, appreciated, and special, and motivate them to continue doing business with you.

In my experience with CRM, identifying your most valuable customers is the first step in creating a sense of exclusivity. These are the customers who contribute significantly to your business, so it's critical to treat them with your genuine appreciation. Consider providing a customized personal assistant or exclusive benefits that emphasize their significance to the company, rather than merely discounts.

Who are your "whale" customers? Those are the ones you should start from then you work your way down. You can go the lazy route of just offering some discount but it's much better to offer a concierge service that makes them not just feel, but know they're your top customers (we all like to feel special). Obviously, you need to be generating enough revenue from those customers for this to make sense.

2 Segment and target your customers

Another way to create a sense of exclusivity and improve retention rates with customer service is to segment and target your customers based on their behavior, needs, or interests. By doing so, you can tailor your customer service to each segment and deliver more relevant and customized solutions, messages, or offers. For example, you can segment your customers by their purchase frequency, lifetime value, satisfaction level, or referral potential. Then, you can target each segment with different customer service strategies, such as proactive outreach, upselling or cross-selling, feedback requests, or appreciation gestures. This will help you build stronger relationships with your customers and increase their loyalty and retention.

Start by dividing customers into segments based on what they buy most, what their goals are, or how long they have been loyal to your company. After segmenting, adjust your offers and messages to meet each group's specific needs. Asking them personally will help you better understand their preferences and is a simple technique to make sure your approach feels relevant and personable.

Divide your customers into segments based on their preferences - which of your products do they buy the most? What is the main goal they're trying to achieve with your product? How long have they been using it? Next, send personalized messages and offers solely based on these preferences. And if you're wondering how you can discover their preferences, it's simple - just ask them!

3 Create a community and a sense of belonging

A third way to create a sense of exclusivity and improve retention rates with customer service is to create a community and a sense of belonging among your customers. By doing so, you can foster a sense of connection, trust, and advocacy among your customers and with your brand. For example, you can create a online forum, a social media group, or a newsletter where your customers can interact with each other, share their experiences, ask questions, or give suggestions. You can also encourage your customers to participate in events, contests, or challenges that showcase their achievements, stories, or testimonials. These activities will help you create a loyal fan base and a positive word-of-mouth for your brand.

You can easily create an "us against the world" kind of vibe by having a pet name for your customers. For a common example, look at musicians and their fans - "beliebers" for Justin Beiber's fans and "Swifties" for those of Taylor Swift. You don't need Grammys to build a cult following of your own, but you do need to sell products that are awesome enough to warrant that type of loyalty.

4 Provide exceptional and consistent service

A fourth way to create a sense of exclusivity and improve retention rates with customer service is to provide exceptional and consistent service to your customers. By doing so, you can exceed your customers' expectations, delight them, and make them feel special and appreciated. For example, you can provide fast and friendly responses, solve problems quickly and effectively, follow up and follow through, personalize your communication, or surprise your customers with extra value or gestures. These actions will help you create a memorable and positive customer experience that will make your customers want to stay with you and recommend you to others.

Love em or hate em, Apple has dominated tech because their fans have complete trust that every product they make is the best in that category. Whether this is true or not is debatable, but they've managed to make their customers feel that way, and that's why you hardly ever hear of Apple losing customers to a competitor. So while marketing is sexy, you still need to have great products to maximize retention.

5 Ask for feedback and act on it

A fifth way to create a sense of exclusivity and improve retention rates with customer service is to ask for feedback and act on it. By doing so, you can show your customers that you care about their opinions, needs, and satisfaction, and that you are willing to improve your products, services, or processes based on their input. For example, you can ask your customers for feedback through surveys, reviews, ratings, or testimonials. You can also acknowledge, thank, and reward your customers for their feedback, and let them know how you have implemented their suggestions or addressed their issues. These steps will help you create a sense of trust, respect, and partnership with your customers and increase their retention and loyalty.

It's all well and good to gather feedback, bit don't just shelve that feedback like way too many companies do (this happens a lot in the E-commerce world). The whole point is to use it to keep tweaking your products until it is as close as possible to perfect for your customers.
