Every entrepreneur asks: How do I get clients?
Fewer ask: How do I keep them?
Almost nobody asks: How do I grow them?
Growth comes when customers don’t just come back, but they also spend more, stay longer, and bring others. That’s how small businesses turn into dominant brands.
If your strategy stops at acquisition, you are leaking profit. Retention and growth multiply the effort you’ve already made in getting them.
The real game is not just sales. The real game is community.
