Why Strong Customer Relationships Matter

Building strong relationships with customers helps businesses:

*"Hi [First Name],

We just noticed that this is your third order with us—thank you for your continued support!

We truly appreciate you being part of our community, and as a small token of gratitude, we’d love to offer you [a discount, a freebie, or early access to new products].

If there’s anything we can do to improve your experience, just let us know!
