Client Retention Workshop: A Practical Blueprint for UK SMEs

By Simon Lewin

Most businesses spend far more effort finding new customers than keeping the ones they already have — even though retention delivers higher margins, stronger trust, and more predictable growth.

This workshop flips the script.

In this hands-on, interactive session, you’ll discover practical strategies to secure the right clients and simple systems that dramatically improve client loyalty and turn satisfied customers into long-term advocates. You’ll walk away with clear retention tactics, personalised action steps, and a framework you can implement immediately.


Why this workshop matters

Acquiring a new client costs far more than keeping an existing one — yet many SMEs lack a structured retention strategy.

This workshop gives you:

  • A proven blueprint for building client loyalty
  • Practical communication and follow-up systems
  • Methods for increasing repeat business
  • Tools to strengthen the customer experience at every touchpoint

Better retention means stronger relationships, improved cash flow, and long-term business stability.


Your facilitator

With 25+ years of training and business development experience across the UK and Europe, Simon Lewin has supported thousands of entrepreneurs, teams, and SMEs in strengthening client relationships and increasing lifetime customer value.

Simon brings a practical, down-to-earth approach — focusing on real-world strategies that work, without jargon or unnecessary complexity.
