How to Thank Your Loyal Customers
[I originally wrote this during Thanksgiving of 2008 but this still applies today. I mention "fans" here but by that I mean super loyal customers.]
It’s great seeing all the Thanksgiving thank you messages on social network sites like Twitter and Facebook. So how can you say “Thanks” to your fans?
Here are two quick examples:
1. ROLL CALL
Internet Marketing expert Douglas Karr extended a special Thank You to all his blog Commenters by listing them on today’s blog post. He listed them in order of how active they’ve been on his site.
Wouldn’t you rather comment on a site that listens to you and appreciates your comments? I would!

2. MAKE YOUR FANS FAMOUS
Here’s an offline example of how to thank your fans. Make your fans famous and post pictures of them!
My favorite little burger place in Ventura, CA is BJ’s. They have great burgers and have lots of loyal customers. When the shop changed ownership, they wanted to keep the regulars coming back so they started posting pictures of folks. The picture below is a bit dark because it was raining but there were still people standing out there to look for their friends and relatives on the picture board.

Do you have any other great ideas for saying Thanks to your fans? Let me know in the comments.
