Acct Mgmt And Loyalty Management
The document discusses how account managers can grow and keep loyal customers. It defines loyal customers as those who frequently repurchase a brand and recommend it to others. These customers have lower acquisition costs since less effort is required to sell to them. The document outlines the customer buying cycle and decision process. It emphasizes managing customer relationships in the pre-purchase and post-purchase phases to guide customers through the "loyalty bypass" and increase the likelihood they become promoters. Account managers should focus on developing early relationships, meeting expectations, and continuing engagement after the sale to foster long-term loyalty.
