External customer External customers are your retail customers. Your external customers purchase products directly from you. They are your clients who deserve your time and attention. Your retail customers buy from you for a reason, as they can purchase your commodity from virtually thousands of others for the same price.

It is the level of customer service that YOU provide them that turns them into loyal clients.

Keep in regular contact with your customers. Make sure your business is somewhere in your customer's mind the next time they need to make a purchase. Ask your customers for feedback. See if they would like to buy additional products from you. In the end it is you, your personality and actions that will determine customer loyalty.
