Customer Win back

• On average , firms can lose up to 40% of their customers every year

• Lost customers mean lost revenues and negative word-of-mouth.

• On an average , firms have a 60 to 70% chance of selling to its

current customers again, a 20 to 40% chance of successfully selling

to previous customers and only a 5 to 20% chance of turning

prospects into new customers.

Customer Win back

• Customers defect for various reasons and some customers

are not worth winning back. Through careful segmentation

you can select the most important customers to win back and

develop individualized strategies for each sector of lost

customers.

• Poor service – This includes history of problems with delivery or

service or even a price increase without adequate proper notice.

complaint is not taken seriously or treated with respect, he can

easily move to a competitor.

Most common reasons for

customer churn

• Disapproval of changes – you run the risk of losing customers

anytime you change a policy or price or product.

• Feeling taken for granted – Remember that every customer

needs to be “resold” in every transaction.

Steps to resolve customer dissatisfaction

• Listen – carefully to your customer.• Empathize – with your customer„s concerns. Let him know that you

sincerely care about his problem even if you don‟t agree with his comments.

• Apologize - even if you are not the cause of problem. When said sincerely, the words „ I am sorry” can diffuse as much as 95% of most peoples anger.

• Resolve - the problem. Let the customer know you are on his side and will do everything you can to help him get the problem resolved.

• Now – is the time to address the problem. The faster a mistake is fixed, the more likely it is that the customer will give your company another chance.

• When you lose a single customer you do not lose a single order but a

lifetime opportunity of profitability with that individual.

• Further, if by a positive word-of-mouth, he brings just one more

customer to the organization his value to the organization doubles.

• Therefore it is important for all the employees within an organization

to understand the lifetime value of their customers.

• Customers orders per year as well as average order size will

increase the longer a customer remains with a company

Customer life time value

Page 26: E2-E3 Finance - mptender.bsnl.co.in

Customer life time value

• Target the right customers – focus not on how many customers you

want to acquire but on how much revenue each potential customer

can generate for your business. Then go after clients and industries

that fit your model and your firms vision and area of expertise.

• Target the high value customers who need little incentive to purchase

, more resistant to the pull of competitor, less price sensitive and

generally more tolerant of occasional lapse of services.

Customer retention

• Retain the right customers.

• Identify the most profitable customers and retain them.

• Retain the customers that have low churn risk and low profit margin

but try to increase their profit margin,

• Example by converting landline customers into broadband

customers.

• Must provide customized services to the high value customers which

makes it difficult for the customer to defect.

Strategies for saving a customer who is about

to defect• Listen to your customers – while listening, identify what triggered

their dissatisfaction. It takes considerable skill and training to handle irate customers tactfully.

• Propose – ask the customers what they need from you to resolve the problem, and to keep them as a customer.

• Meet the customer demands if it is cost effective for the company.

• If what your customer demands is more than the customers estimated value to your company, you may not be able to save the customer.

Long term strategy

• Play second fiddle – if your past relationship with the customer has

been good, make a pitch for even a portion of their business. Often

this kind of arrangement is accepted immediately and it leaves you

as an established operator.

• Ask for another meeting – if you are turned down for even a portion

of their business, ask if they would reconsider in a few months time

even if this overture is rejected ask for permission to stay in touch.

Courtesy is very effective.

that your product offers a better value than anything from a

competitor.

• Acknowledge their past business.

• Point out improvements and changes that have been made since

the customer left.

• Prove to the customer that your products and services offer

value he or she could not find elsewhere.

• Make it easy for them to switch over.
