The Geography of Loyalty: How Location Shapes Repeat Business

Some places create loyal customers. Others… just footfall.

The difference isn’t always service or product quality — it’s geography.

·       Is your business near where people live, or just where they pass through?

·       Are customers within walking distance, or reliant on parking and traffic patterns?

·       Is the demographic aligned with your offering — or just browsing?

Location defines habit. And habit drives repeat business.

That’s why a salon in one town becomes a weekly fixture, while a nearly identical one elsewhere sees a revolving door of one-time visitors.

Understanding catchment characteristics — like income levels, family size, car ownership, and even how nearby competitors are clustered — can help you predict where loyalty is likely to grow.
