Relationships change over time. Parties become closer or more distant; interactions become more or less frequent. Because they evolve, they can vary considerably, both in the number and variety of episodes, and the interactions that take place within those episodes. Dwyer has identified five general phases through which customer-supplier relationships can evolve.

1 Awareness.2 Exploration.3 Expansion. 4 Commitment. 5 Dissolution.

Hofmeyr suggests that companies can measure customer commitment by asking just four questions:

1. How happy are you with < whatever it is > ? 2. Is this relationship something that you care about? 3. Is there any other < whatever it is > that appeals to you? 4. If so, how different is the one < whatever > from the other?

service quality perspectives

1. Quality is conformance to specification- business specifies what counts as quality, and measures its performance to that standard. example is producing error free invoices or acknowledging customer complaint in 24 hours 2. Quality is fitness for purpose- creating products that meet customer expectations, customer determines quality not company

Michael Treacey and Fred Wiersema have suggested that successful companies offer one of three value propositions to their customers:

1. low price- companies with this do a limited number of things at low cost and pass on those savings to customers; these companies tend to operate lean manufacturing and efficient supply chains, rigorous cost control 2. product innovation- aim to provide best products, services, or solutions to customers 3. customized solutions- able to adapt their offers to meet the needs of individual customers, must be based on customer insight

Service Level Agreement (SLA)

A contractual commitment between a service provider and customer that specifies the mutual responsibilities of both parties with respect to the services that will be provided and the standards at which they will be performed

Non-customers are segmented according to commitment scores into four availability subsets: available, ambivalent, weakly unavailable and strongly unavailable.

Available non-customers- prefer the alternative to their current offer & are ready to switch ambivalent non customers- are as attracted to the alternative as they are to their current brand weakly unavailable non customers- prefer their current brand strongly unavailable non customers- have a strong preference for their current brand

CRM definition

CRM is the core business strategy that integrates internal processes and functions and external networks, to create and deliver value to targeted customers at a profit. It is grounded on high-quality customer-related data and enabled by information technology.

IDIC Model

Identify- who your customers are and build a deep understanding of them Differentiate- your customers to identity which have the most value now and which offer the most for the future Interact- with customers to ensure that you understand their expectations and relationships with other brands Customize- the offer and communications to ensure that customers expectations are met

value in exchange

Value-in-exchange is the exchange of one form of value for another. In developed economies value-in-exchange takes the form of money being exchanged for a good or service at the point of sale. One form of value (the good or service) is exchanged for another (money). In less developed economies, barter is a common non-monetized form of value-in-exchange, goods or services being exchanged for other goods or services.

value in use

Value-in-use holds that value is realized only when customers possess, use, consume or interact with the good or service. Until consumers perform these actions, goods are simply inert bundles of attributes - they have no value whatsoever. This perspective on value suggests that value is 'not what the producer puts in, but what the customer gets out'. Firms can only create value propositions.

Companies need to nurture their relationships with committed customers, reassuring them that their decision is wise, and finding ways to enrich and enhance their customer experience.

Product-oriented businesses believe that customers choose products with the best quality, performance, design or features. These are often highly innovative and entrepreneurial firms. Many new business start-ups are product-oriented. In these firms it is common for the customer's voice to be missing when important marketing, selling or service decisions are made. Little or no customer research is conducted. Management makes assumptions about what customers want and/or provides visionary leadership for the market.
