Best Practices for Customer Management

💡 Keep Accurate Measurements

Always take precise measurements. Poor measurements lead to poor fits and unhappy customers. Update measurements for significant changes.

💡 Document Everything

Use the notes section to record special requests, allergies, past issues, or fitting preferences. This context helps deliver better service.

💡 Stay in Touch

Regularly contact customers with order updates and new offerings. Good communication builds loyalty and increases repeat business.

💡 Build Relationships

Remember personal details like favorite styles or occasions. Personal touches build strong, long-term customer relationships.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where do I add measurements for a customer?
Measurements are stored at the Family Member level. Add a family member to the customer (even if it's just themselves), then add measurements to that family member profile.
Can I import customers from Excel or CSV?
Yes! Go to Customers and click "Import". Download the template file first, fill in your customer data following the format, then upload the completed file.
Can I delete a customer who has orders?
Customers with existing orders cannot be permanently deleted to maintain order history.
What if two customers have the same phone number?
The system checks for duplicate phone numbers when adding customers. If a phone number already exists, you'll be notified. This helps prevent creating duplicate customer records.
