My key takeaways:
*Implement staff surveys
*Customers want to buy the way they want to buy
*A high level of customer satisfaction does not necessarily translate into repeat purchases and increased sales
*Increasing customer base is not always a good thing. Might be better to concentrate on needs of particular clients
*Relationship building with a customer is a priority
*The company must recognize that its business is to build a stable customer database, rather than make a single sale. Loyal customers is a priority
*Make a membership program (point based system, or giving freebies to repeat guests)
*Average American company loses 20-40% customers
*Through increasing the rate of customer retention by as little as a few percentage points, banks, retailers, health care providers, can increase their profits by 25-100 per cent
*Loyal customer- loyal employee
*New skiers were sent a certificate celebrating their completion of the learn-to-ski program. He created a frequent-skier program, modeled after airline frequent-flyer programs, that rewarded cusomers with a free day ofskiing after as few as five visits, and customers received mailings describing special promotions
*The information makes the sale
*Preserve good opinion and esteem of the customer
*Early problems make it hard to keep customer/Formal servicing system (scheduling)
*Any firm with a high level of customer loyalty has also earned a high level of staff loyalty
*Hold regular meetings with staff and ask these questions: What make our company a good place to work? What can be done to make it an even better place to work?
*Head off bad press before it happens. Make it easy for customers complain, and treat complaints seriously. Establish firm guidelines regarding customer response time, reporting, and trend analysis
*Review every customer touch point within your company. Brainstorm with staff on how to turn each customer touch point into an opportunity to capture customer complaints and other feedback
*Be responsive
*What do customers value? What is about the product that drives loyalty?/ Which products or service areas most need improvement?/ Where are your currently oeverinvesting?/ Which areas deserve more study for potential future investment?
*Give front line skills to perform
*Centralize all data in one centralize database
