Relationships
Marketing Unit, Slide No. 1
Building Customer Relationships
• Customer relationship management
(CRM) is the process of building and
maintaining profitable customer
relationships by delivering superior
customer value and satisfaction.
• CRM deals with all aspects of acquiring,
keeping, and growing customers.
• The key to building lasting customer
relationship is to: create superior
customer value and customer
satisfaction. Satisfied customers are
more likely to be loyal customers and
give the company a larger share of their
purchases.

Changing Nature of Managing
Customer Relationships
• Today’s companies are focusing on building more direct and lasting
relationships with more carefully selected customers,
• Few firms today still practice true mass marketing, i.e., selling in a
standardized way to any customer who comes along. Firms now are
targeting fewer, more profitable customers.
• This is called selective relationship management. Involves using
customer profitability analysis to weed out losing (unprofitable) and
target winning ones for special treatment.
• Other changes:
- Serving chosen customers in a deeper, more lasting way. Going
beyond strategies to attract new customer and generate transactions,
focusing instead on retaining current customers and building profitable,
long-term relationships with them.
- Also striving to connect more directly with their customers. Direct
marketing, i.e., buying without going into a store, is booming.

Customer Relationship Levels & Tools
• Relationships can be built at many
levels depending on the nature of the
target market. For example:
- Basic relationships with lower margin
customers; or
- Full partnerships with key customers.
• A variety of tools are available to build
stronger bonds with customers. For
example:
- Frequency marketing or loyalty marketing
programs that reward customers who buy
frequently or in large amounts; and
- Club marketing programs that offer
members financial and/or social benefits.

Customers
The importance of not just acquiring
customers, but of keeping and
growing them as well:
“The only value your company
will ever create is the value that
comes from customers—the ones
you have now and the ones you
will have in the future. Without
customers, you don‘t have a
business.”
