Customer Retention ensures that whenever you move one step forward , you do not move 2 step backwards in Sales. How do you retain old customers specially on account of price and quality is one of the key deliverables of this presentation.
The document discusses the importance of customer service and satisfaction. It states that customers are the most important part of any business and should be treated with respect. The document also notes that it is much more expensive for a business to acquire new customers than retain existing ones. Finally, it emphasizes that businesses should aim to exceed customer expectations in order to build loyalty and gain customer advocacy through positive word-of-mouth.
The document discusses conducting an actionable customer experience survey to identify a company's best customers and what needs to be done to retain them. It recommends starting with existing customers, as they provide feedback on customer experience and suggestions for improvement. The survey identifies important purchase factors, performance in those areas, and likelihood of referrals. Customers can then be mapped into value quadrants based on revenue and loyalty to prioritize retention, cross-selling, and releasing efforts. Conducting such a survey provides companies with crucial customer data to strategically grow their business.
Customer retention marketing focuses on keeping existing customers rather than acquiring new ones. Some key points:
- Companies lose 20-40% of customers each year, but increasing retention by 5% can increase profits by 50%+.
- While customers may be satisfied, 80% are still open to competitors' offers. Loyalty is less connected to satisfaction than assumed.
- Firms invest heavily in new customer acquisition but then gradually reduce service levels and increase the risk of defection, in a "catch-22" cycle.
- Personalized communication and viewing the customer relationship as a long-term process, rather than a single transaction, are emphasized as ways to improve retention.
How frequently do you check in with current or previous customers or clients? Understanding the rule around customer contact could strengthen relationships and build customer loyalty!
Customer Loyalty Part 3 - Customer Experience (CX)Gail Carson
Be realistic about how you define your CX success range – the range where your products and services comfortably add value to meet your prospects’ and clients’ needs and expectations. Create a great CX strategy that works in concert with brand equity programs, and you’ll build the loyalty you need.
The document discusses the importance of customer experience (CX) and provides tips for improving it. It notes that customers value their experience based on success, effort, and emotion. Good CX fosters strong loyalty through repurchasing, trying new offerings, forgiving mistakes, and recommending the brand to others. However, few companies are very good at CX. The document recommends focusing on customer needs, personalizing experiences, understanding what customers want, and making CX everyone's priority in order to enter the age of the customer.
The document provides 4 steps to build customer loyalty:
1. Build employee loyalty as happy employees provide better customer service.
2. When mistakes happen, fix them and earn customer trust to build loyalty.
3. Build an online community or "tribe" through mobile apps to foster connections between customers.
4. Implement a mobile loyalty program to track customer behavior, communicate offers, and increase engagement through a more convenient digital platform compared to paper loyalty cards.
This document describes a method for improving customer service and climbing the customer service curve through customer experience workshops. It discusses that (1) customer satisfaction does not directly correlate with loyalty and that only 15% of companies delight customers, (2) mapping all customer touchpoints called "moments of truth" is important for understanding the customer experience, and (3) workshops involving frontline employees can identify opportunities to improve specific moments of truth.

The document discusses creating a compelling client proposition. It suggests that clients will expect clear answers about what they are paying for in a more transparent pricing environment post-RDR. A client proposition should explain the services being provided in a way clients understand and demonstrate value. Many advisers currently provide services clients don't need or want. Research shows clients want responsive, personalized service and are willing to pay more for better service. High net worth clients want specialized, independent advice and transparency. An effective proposition must meet rising client expectations.
This document provides guidance on best practices for conducting business-to-business (B2B) customer satisfaction surveys. It discusses defining B2B relationships versus business-to-consumer relationships, budgeting for surveys, obtaining feedback through regular phone calls from company representatives in parallel with occasional formal written surveys, and using feedback to increase sales and profits from existing customers. The goal is to provide practical advice based on decades of experience conducting B2B surveys.

Everything You Thought About Customer Service & Loyalty is Wrong // Toolbox S...LHBS
What we think about in customer service could be wrong, from what customers want to who’s the best personality for teams.
Technology research firm Gartner Inc. (previously CEB) recently presented findings from a number of studies carried out within the realm of customer service across the world.
The research spanned many different industries and consisted of over 125,000 customers, over 5000 service representatives, over 100 companies and revealed three major findings.
We explore these findings and offer actionable steps and useful resources to begin customer service transformations within any company.
What Is a Customer Worth? Understanding Customer Lifetime ValueAdam Toporek
On November 29, 2011 we posted a “back of the napkin” guide for calculating the economic value a customer brings over their “lifetime” with a business. We designed Understanding Customer Lifetime Value: A Non-Geek’s Guide as a thorough, yet non-academic, approach to determining the lifetime value of customers
The step-by-step process of determining customer lifetime value seemed like a natural fit for SlideShare, so we decided to re-release the post in a presentation format.
Check out What Is a Customer Worth to learn more about Customer Lifetime Value and to make better decisions about marketing and retention.
The Experience Audit is one of my favorite tools because it is a completely new perspective in which to look at your customer strategy. In doing the work, you will be better prepared to have more meaningful conversations with your internal teams.
The Experience Audit ask you to look at existing customer behaviors and outcomes because behavior is the end all, be all, of profitable business. Behavior is the proof that your product is meeting needs, that you are delivering meaningful value. Behavior doesn’t lie. It doesn’t say things are worse than they are and it doesn’t sugar coat because they really like the person, but hate the product.
You can have significant financial impact if you focus your efforts on shifting more of your customers toward the attributes and behaviors of your most profitable and naturally satisfied customers. You can create sustainable, measurable results while at the same time reducing the sometimes overwhelming effort involved.

This document provides guidance on conducting an experience audit to improve a company's customer experience program. It finds that while 89% of customers think they are paying for a great experience and 80% of CEOs think they are delivering it, in reality customer experience is getting worse according to measures. The audit involves identifying a company's ideal, most profitable customers and those that drain resources to understand what behaviors could be shifted to make the latter more like the former. This focuses efforts on customers that bring the greatest value and aligns with a company's strengths. The audit provides clarity on customer promises, needs, and opportunities to improve strategy and maximize returns.
