1. 5 Valuable Lessons

It’s All About The Customers!
#1
Product/Service
differentiation among
competitors keeps
decreasing.
Customers now have
little or no reason to
remain loyal.
Give them value far beyond the
features of product and services.
There should be a shift from
product/service orientation to
Customer Experience orientation.
Customer experience is now the
major differentiator.
Little thing matters more when it
comes to Customer Experience

#3
Customers are getting
more knowledgeable
and more demanding
than ever before.
They are not easily
impressed.
Understanding not just the spoken
needs but also anticipating the
unspoken needs of the customers is
critical to business success. Always
stay one step ahead of the customers;
by that you are sure to be far ahead of
competitors.

#4
Customers are
humans too with their
fears, doubt,
frustrations, dreams
and objectives. No
two customers are the
same.
Customer Management Strategy
shouldn't be a one size fit all. Looking
through the lens of individual
customers gives the company a clearer
view of the business and the prospect
with such customers.

#5
Customer Service goes
far beyond the
traditional frontline
or whosoever is
interacting with the
Customers.
“Customer Centricity” should be
integrated into the company’s culture.
Everybody should be on board when
it comes to being Customer Ccntric.
Its not uncommon to hear customers
say: “Are your technical guys human
at all” or “Do your management
know that we are the customers”
