Description

"In this age of increasing marketing costs, a maturing economy, and customers who are more and more convinced that no one brand or supplier is any better than the next, Terry Vavra urges marketers to shift their focus from pursuing new customers to building lasting relationships with current customers. Aftermarketing describes a new marketing perspective for all levels of practitioners and students. It establishes a clear mandate to help companies and individuals gain category leadership in the radically changing market of the '90s." "Aftermarketing is the new imperative - satisfying and retaining customers to increase their lifetime value is the key to profitability. Now, in one book, you can understand the six most important components of an aftermarketing program." "Aftermarketing shows you how to identify your customers and build a customer information file, measure customers' satisfaction levels and constantly strive for improvement, analyze informal customer feedback and manage formal customer communication programs, respond to customers by answering complaints and acknowledging compliments, blueprint customer contact points to enhance the quality of customer interactions in these important "moments of truth," and establish an internal organization that understands and supports the role of aftermarketing to help convert occasional customers to loyal customers." "You'll find step-by-step action plans for each aftermarketing component to help you quickly and easily establish a successful program for your organization.". "Vavra shows how the traditional marketing mix must change to better service current customers. You'll find specific ways to assess your company's current performance and to strengthen the relationship between your company and your customers. With Aftermarketing by your side, you can enhance the loyalty and satisfaction of your current customers rather than chase the elusive potential customer - and a satisfied customer is the best marketing vehicle for your company!"--BOOK JACKET.
