How to Identify Them?
They often have no idea that they are special
They will be the ones always talking Higher than average orders (10x
more), more mentions, more shares It’s not all math, trust your gut! You might actually know their names
(seriously though, think about it right now)

How to High Five Them!

channels Treat their emails as high priorities Send a thank you or a gift Special mailing lists Give them sneak peaks (content,
product, features) Special events
