Don't
Overlook Your Current Customers
July 5, 2006
Marketing-minded
companies know that clients need to be rewarded
for being a client just as they would for
becoming one.
Case
in point: I needed to purchase a new cellular
telephone from my provider with whom I currently
carry a contract that will not expire for almost
another full year. I was told that I could purchase
the new phone at full price or advance my contract
for an additional year to receive a sizable discount.
Being a bit unhappy with the company already,
I was not excited about adding more time to my
contract, especially with a year still left to
go. I paid full price for the phone and promptly
prepared my contract cancellation notice.

companies know that clients who are not
rewarded for being clients can be quickly
motivated to become someone else's client.
