A book by Serge Rouvière
The keys to build or strengthen your customer relations
It is more and more difficult for companies to differentiate through their product or service offer, even if their offer is innovative. Competition has increased in all business sectors and the companies' offers are finally perceived as similar by customers. Yet there is an asset that cannot be easily copied, which is the history and quality of the relations between a company and its clients.
Serge Rouviere invites the reader to become aware of the stakes involved in customer loyalty and to learn about the processes a company should implement to bring about customer loyalty. He encourages companies to rethink their sales practices in order to sell more and better, which means in the long term, by investing in building up quality relationships with their existing and prospective clients.
The book provides analysis in the pitfalls companies come up against once they are committed to a customer loyalty program, and explores ways which enable all company personnel to take part in developing customer trust on a daily basis.
The book, ilustrated with many recent, real life examples, is very operationnal and pragmatic. Step by step the reader builds or enhances their knowledge, going through business case studies, as well as end of chapter summaries or exercises.
