How consumers can spread the word about local businesses
Thriving small businesses are vital to strong local economies. According to the Small Business Administration, small businesses contribute roughly 65 percent of all new jobs, while a report from the Congressional Research Service indicated that firms with between 20 and 499 employees had the best job creation record of any size company. That’s a significant feather in the cap of small businesses, as the jobs such firms create help to build thriving local economies that benefit from the tax revenue generated through employment and its ripple effects, such as the greater buying power that being employed creates.
With so much to gain from a thriving small business sector, local residents can help to spread the word about small businesses in their communities. A handful of simple and effective strategies can help to promote local businesses, and each can potentially benefit consumers and communities.

TAKE TO SOCIAL MEDIA. Though it certainly has its detractors, social media remains wildly popular. An April 2023 report from Global WebIndex indicated 60 percent of the world’s population uses social media, and the daily average usage is two hours and 24 minutes. Data from Meta indicates that 83 percent of Instagram users discover new brands while using the platform. Such reports illustrate how effective positive reviews and references to small local businesses can be. Consumers won’t need much time to share a story about a great local business on their social media accounts, but that small investment of time can pay big dividends for those companies.
SHARE EXPERIENCES THROUGH WORD OF MOUTH.
Word-of-mouth marketing still works, and consumers can play an important role in ensuring that it benefits local businesses. According to the marketing solution experts at Hibü, word-

of-mouth marketing remains the most popular way to recommend a business. Consumers trust what others say about a business, so positive experiences with a local firm can be shared with family, friends and neighbors looking for similar services.
REVIEW THE BUSINESS ONLINE.
Review Trackers reports that more than 81 percent of consumers are likely to visit Google Reviews prior to visiting a business. That’s a testament to the value of online review aggregators. After a positive experience with a local business, consumers can visit Google Reviews or another online review aggregator and share the details of their encounter. Chances are strong the review will be read and compel others to patronize the business. A successful small business sector can have a profound impact on local communities. Consumers have an important role to play in the creation of a thriving small business community.

How to improve customer retention
One of the principles of good business is to remember that it is less expensive to have customers become repeat shoppers than to try to entice new customers to come in and try products or services. Harvard Business Review says onboarding a new customer can be as much as 25 times more expensive than retaining an existing customer. However, profits can grow even when businesses retain a small number of customers.
Consumers can be fickle, and there is always some shiny new “something” that may draw their attention away. That fickle nature is on display whenever a new product hits the market. An existing phone may still function at or near peak capacity, but the newer one boasting different bells and whistles captures the attention of a buyer who doesn’t want to feel like they are missing
out on the latest and the greatest. Small business owners have to do their part to ensure their customer base is not drawn away by something shiny and new — particularly if that something is a large retailer. These strategies can improve customer retention and benefit small businesses.
PRIORITIZE FIRST IMPRESSIONS. Customers will judge a business by its cover. How they were treated, how smoothly a process ran and how quickly action was taken when an issue arose will affect how likely a customer is to stick around. Businesses who perfect their first impressions, particularly by putting their key employees in position to initiate contact, may find they are more successful at customer retention.
OFFER LOYALTY INCENTIVES. Businesses can foster goodwill and customer retention by rewarding customers who stick
around. Rewards can include VIP events, early access deals, special offers and discount codes. These help collect data and indicate to customers that they’re valued.
KEEP CUSTOMERS IN THE KNOW. Businesses should routinely update existing customers on what is being done to keep products and services fresh so evolving customer needs are met. With so much competition out there, businesses need to
keep their names at the top of the minds of consumers.
MAKE CUSTOMERS FEEL LIKE VIPS. Go above and beyond with every customer, treating each and every one as if he or she is the most important person in the room. VIP services can include seamless online services as well as prompt and fast point of sales in person.
