The person who comes to your web site seeking products or information is a visitor. A person who bought a product or service of yours is a customer or client.
***Why should you follow up Your VISITORS?
Simple...
People tend to forget easily.
After he gone from your web site, he may not remember that he came to your web site. He/She could have some reasons not to buy a product right now. Or he still searching for a product similar to yours. This person is a potential prospect to you. So try to get their email adddress and permission from them to receive emails from you.
How to get their email:

- Offer fully functional demo product that expires after a time
- Offer coupons that give discounts on your products
- Offer a free ecourse
- Offer an ezine

***Why should you follow up Your CUSTOMER?
You can ask me... Why should I follow up my customer? He already my customer, isn't it?
Don't forget the simple 'psychology of comfort'. Once your customer is using your product means, he will have more confidence in you and your service. So he/she will be easily influenced to buy your other products.
