HOW-TO GUIDE

Research indicates that when polled, 80% of your customers will respond that they are very satisfied
with your products/company. Makes you feel great, right? Don’t be fooled by the common misper-
ception that these customers are indeed loyal and plan to repurchase products, or endorse them to
their peers & colleagues.

How Can You Drive Customer-Centricity?


Analyze Data - work with IT to get historical purchasing information, segment your customer-base,
discover trends, analyze retention rates, assess geographic market penetration, and ultimately,
build your set of CRM metrics.

Observe - develop marketing analytics processes related to website activity, customer behavior,
predictive modeling, forecasting, and campaign ROI.

Gather Feedback - conduct an annual Customer Satisfaction Survey.

Profile - help your staff understand Market Segments and Customer Profiles by working with
customers to create Case Studies and generate testimonials.

Understand - as markets continuously evolve, redefine your target markets by reading our report
and conducting a Market Segmentation, Targeting, and Positioning initiative.

Plan Interactions - some accounts are more strategic than others. For those of paramount import-
ance, implement a Key Account Planning process.

Listen - consider adding a customer-facing Blog to your corporate website. Blogs are very
effective for generating feedback on products and services.
