Inspite of everybody (including
the CEOs) knowing the importance of a customer
to their business, still why do companies treat
their customers the way they do is the question
that Avinash Narula attempts to answer in this
book. He feels that the root cause of the problem
is that even though we know about the concept
of customer satisfaction, we do not BELIEVE in
it. Knowing the concept isn’t enough for
you to implement it. You have to believe in it.
We don’t believe in it
because we don’t see any evidence of the
harmful effects of dissatisfying a customer or
losing one. The reason why we do not see the cost
of customer dissatisfaction is because a dissatisfied
customer turns into a customer iceberg. Just like
an iceberg, customer iceberg also hides most of
the cost of customer dissatisfaction.
In this book, Avinash Narula
attempts to make the complete customer iceberg
visible so that all of us become BELIEVERS. He
will lay bare the extensive damage that customer
icebergs cause to businesses so that they are
cautioned against creating more customer icebergs.
Another creative way to understand the importance
of customers. Written in story telling style with
loads of interesting examples, the concept is
explained in simple yet convincing manner. |
