"We all have to try to learn what are our partner's preferences. So as with customers, the brand must learn their customer's preferences," said Ryan Pasaribu. Different business has different sets of customers which also means different ways to approach and retain them, it takes time and effort to get up close and personal with your customers and potential customers.
