A customer database





            A  customer  database  is  a  database  full  of  information  about  your  clients.  It
            often  contains  information  such  as  name,  address,  email  address  or  past

            purchases.


                         Why is it important to maintain a customer database?


                 Because information you can gather from it can reveal a potential
                                              business opportunity.





            For  example,  if  you  can  track  a  customer’s  purchases,  you  can  see  how  the
            need for the product is changing.





                                   Is he always buying the same product?
                                           Why did he stop buying it?

                          Is it time to create a new one or perfect the old one?




            Maybe you can offer him a complementary product.


            You  can  also  track  the  information  of  your  loyal  customers  and  create  a

            targeted special offer just for them, resulting in fostering a mutual relationship.
            Customer databases create a lot of opportunities for your business. You don't
            have to stick to good old Excel (but you can, of course), to help you create and

            manage your client database. You can use Monday.com, Totango or a simple
            template by Zapier.
