susceptible to competition, and cost less to
serve than new customers.
Chp 2/Objective 3: Attracting
and Retaining Customers

up long distance phone service so it is automatically
billed to credit card and they get frequent flyer points).
This is hard for customers to change and provides them
with the greatest benefit.
– There needs to be more than a financial benefit (ex.
discount, as this is the easiest for competitors to copy)
or a social benefit (ex. set up chat rooms for customers
to discuss).

find ways to perform better

firm would have realized if profitable customer had not left.
– Determine if costs to reduce defection < lost profit. If
so, company needs to reduce defection rate.
Chapter 2/Objective 4: Cost of
Customers and Lifetime Value
• Need for Customer Retention

effectively resolves problem. Won back customers tell
approximately 5 people of good treatment. Winning back lost
customers cheaper than attracting new customers.
• See statistics of customer retention in book.
Module 1 - Conclusion
• Firms need to find out who are their profitable
customers are and what do they need given the
ever-changing environment. They must integrate
what the firm is doing (along with their supply
chain) to meet this target market’s needs
effectively and develop a long term relationship
where the customer is satisfied.
