When we think of keeping people happy, we have a tendency to overthink it. The same thing applies to your clients. It's not as complicated as you might think, but there are some important things to consider. Here are six steps to keeping your clients happy.

1. Present Clear Terms and Expectations. When starting out the relationship between yourself/your company and your client, it's important to be clear about what you offer. For example, someone will generally not be pleased if they expect a yacht and get a canoe. This is an extreme example, but the point is that ensuring clients know what to expect is the first step to ensuring their happiness.
2. Be Consistent & Do What You Say You Will. Once your client has signed on with you, consistency is key, whatever your product or service might be. One of the easiest ways to keep clients happy is to deliver. You are showing them they can count on you, and many times that is everything for a client! If they have had bad experiences with inconsistency from whom they've hired, finding a company that is tried and true will make them happier.
3. Be Hospitable. Sometimes clients will have requests and may ask for something. Instead of shooting them down, consider the request and if you can possibly make it happen. If you can, they will feel special. Be kind in your response if it's not something that can be accomplished. Give an explanation and help them understand rather than using a curt "no."
4. Anticipate Their Needs. When you begin to learn the ins and outs of your client's needs, you have an opportunity to wow them. Knowing what they need and having it accomplished before they have to ask will show them your commitment to them and your value.
5. Be Their Guide. Your focus needs to be entirely on your client - it's your job to make their life easier and help them achieve their growth goals.
6. Listen To Them. This task is probably the easiest to accomplish, but it's probably one of the things people miss the most. Listening to your clients will help you understand what they want with your services. Everything you do should revolve around what they are telling you. This is going to make them happy because you are respecting their wishes. When considering how to keep clients happy, hospitality, consistency, and listening are key. No matter what, your clients are special to you, and you should treat them that way. When they are happy and meeting their goals, they will keep coming back for more.
