Lesson 3 Flashcards
Fundamental Principles
1.Specialization
2.Differentiation
3.Segmentation
4.Concentration
The first thing to determine is where you are
going to specialize. What is your domain,
product, service, customer, market where
you want to focus?
Specialization
What is your competitive advantage? How is it
that you are different and better than the
competition? Customers want a reason to buy
from you and not the competition. Customers
always want to get the best deal, there is
nothing personal here. They just want the
highest quality at the best price. If you ask
businesses what is their USP (UNIQUE
SELLING PR0POSITION)?
Differentation
means looking at who are those specific customers
in the market who value my differentiation and
will pay more for your area of specialization.
Segmentation
who are the
customers who most appreciate your area of
superiority? What are their demographics? Their
Psychographics? How would you describe your
perfect customer?
Segmentation
Once you have determined your very
best market segments for what you
do really well, you focus all your
energies, resources, budgets, and
time on acquiring customers from
these markets and retaining them.
Concentration
The higher the level of customer engagement with your
company and product, the higher the value your customer
receives — and the better the relationship. When you expand
the domain of your customer support superstars, you give
them the leeway to strengthen the customer experience in
creative, unexpected ways.
The value of Customer Service
and Customer Relationship
the assistance and advice provided by a company to those
people who buy or use its products or services.
What is customer service
is the support you offer your customers — both before and
after they buy and use your products or services — that helps them have an easy
and enjoyable experience with you.
Customer Service
describes the ways that a company will engage with its
customers to improve the customer experience. This includes providing
answers to short-term roadblocks as well as proactively creating long-term
solutions that are geared towards customer success.
Customer Relationns
aims
to create a mutually beneficial relationship with the customer that extends
beyond the initial purchase.
Customer Relations
is present in all aspects of a business, but it’s most
prevalent in the customer service department.
Customer Relations
What functions does customer relations include?
- reactive functions
- proactive functions
are the efforts made by your team to solve issues that are
reported by customers. This includes tasks like responding to customer
complaints and solving problems with the support team. Being able to solve
unexpected customer roadblocks is essential for brands that are looking to
build strong customer relationships.
Reactive Functions
are the measures taken to ensure a long-term
relationship with customers. These efforts are aimed towards fostering
customer success by consistently satisfying evolving customer needs.

updates as well as by promoting discounts and exclusive offers. This type of
long-term customer relationship management helps companies create lasting
impressions on customers who eventually become loyal to the brand.
