5 Ways to Boost Repeat Purchases in Your Print Business

Repeat customers are the backbone of any successful business, and print businesses are no exception. Acquiring new customers can be costly, but retaining existing ones and encouraging them to make repeat purchases is both cost-effective and crucial for long-term growth. Here are five actionable strategies to boost repeat purchases in your print business.

1. Offer a Loyalty Program

Rewarding your customers for their continued business creates a strong incentive for them to return.

• How it Works: Create a points-based system where customers earn points for every purchase, which they can redeem for discounts, free products, or exclusive perks.

• Example: A photo book business could offer a free book after a customer orders five.

Pixfizz Tip: Use Pixfizz’s flexible eCommerce tools to integrate a loyalty program directly into your store.

2. Personalize the Customer Experience

Customers value a personal touch, especially in the print business where customization is key.

• How to Personalize: Use customer data to send targeted emails, recommend products, or offer discounts based on previous purchases.

• Example: If a customer has ordered wedding invitations, send them a discount for thank-you cards or anniversary gifts.

Pixfizz Insight: Pixfizz’s personalization features make it easy for customers to create unique products, enhancing their connection to your brand.

3. Introduce Subscription Services

For products that customers frequently reorder, subscriptions can provide convenience and reliability.

• How it Works: Allow customers to subscribe to recurring orders, such as business cards or photo prints, at a discounted rate.

• Example: A business card subscription offering free design updates with every reorder.

Pro Tip: Promote subscription plans during checkout to capture interest when customers are already engaged.

4. Follow Up with Exceptional Customer Service

Great service turns one-time buyers into loyal customers who trust your brand.

• Key Actions:

  • Send follow-up emails after a purchase to ensure satisfaction.

  • Offer quick resolutions for any issues, with a focus on delighting the customer.

• Example: Including a thank-you note or a small discount code for future orders in the packaging.

Pixfizz Advantage: Automated email notifications can help you stay connected with customers while maintaining a personal touch.

5. Launch Exclusive Promotions for Returning Customers

Make your customers feel valued by offering deals that are just for them.

• Examples of Promotions:

  • "Welcome Back" discounts for second-time buyers.

  • Early access to new products for loyal customers.

  • Referral discounts when they bring in a friend.

Real-World Example: A photo gift store offering exclusive early-bird discounts for holiday-themed products.
