Taming the Search-and-Switch Customer: Earning Customer Loyalty in a Compulsion-to-Compare World

"Compulsion-to-compare" is a rampant, new customer behavior that, if ignored, can make a serious dent in any company's bottom line. Google and other search technologies have created an unprecedented state of "customer informedness" by which buyers are gathering information online to instantly compare alternatives. This transparency makes getting and keeping loyal customers even harder in today's competitive, information-driven world. Taming the Search-and-Switch Customer addresses these tough, complex realities with proven solutions for large and small B2B and B2C firms. The book includes a "worth-it test" that enables firms to get a real look at whether their customers think their product or service measures up.

Jill Griffin (Austin, TX) is known to her clients as The Loyalty Maker® for good reason. Since 1988, she has led Austin-based Griffin Group, helping firms worldwide build fiercely loyal customers. Her clients include Microsoft, Dell, Toyota, Marriott, HP, Days Inn, Western Union, and Sprint. Her book, Customer Loyalty (978-0-7879-6388-0) was named to Harvard Business School's "Working Knowledge" list and has been translated into six languages.

Open Question: what is your ideas for survival of educated people in india ?
roughly out of 1000 graduates( not considered the dropouts and uneducated ) 1person gets employment.he serves for the nation forat leastt 25 years.during the time he has to spend 50% of his earnings for renting a house.another 50% is for all his family needs.this is very little money and how he leads his family life with that money is a v.v.v.v big question.he does not knows anything about the world other than his work and family due to financial problems. when he retires he has to return to his native village because his settelement money is not allows him to live in a simple city itself because the cost of living is too much. the salary what he got when retired is equal in value to the salary he got when joined in the work. nothing he can enjoy in his life.he sacrified his life for nothing. but many people who runs business earns a lot and lives far better in their life (like politicians,contractors,film actors/producers,house/shop renters,money lenders,real estate persons,milk/milk product sellers,small shopoweners,chicken/mutton shop owners, commercial vehicle oweners,grocery shop oweners etc...) for all those business needs no or very less brain comparing to educated person needs. farmers - they are eraning very least in the society. common man - living a slavery life,begger's life. so a well educated and employed who thinks and uses all his talents for his industory/nation is beeing crushed by barbaric pay standerd. when a educated tries to solve a problem using his talent / during the time a business man earns money and grows by using simple ideas,this process leads a intelegent educated people to die for dirty business man's luxery life. If you want a world in which a talanted educated brains to be encourraged by all means and earnings of people should be proportinate to their talent not money based, give your ideas that the world should follow.

Resolved Question: Below is an issue that is being swepped under the carpet by all British politicians, and the British media?
Fifth anniversary of means-tested benefit is nothing to celebrate Britain?s biggest pensioner organisation, the National Pensioners Convention (NPC), has marked the fifth anniversary of the introduction of the means-tested Pension Credit by highlighting its failure to reach the very poorest older people. The latest official figures from the Department for Work and Pensions[1] reveal how ineffective the Pension Credit has been at tackling pensioner poverty: There are up to 1.8m pensioners who are eligible, but do not receive the Pension Credit (ENR - eligible non-recipients). This represents a take-up rate of between 59%-67% - significantly below the government?s stated target of 73%. 35% of these individuals (ENRs) are aged 80 or over. 67% of the 1.8m pensioners (ENRs) are living on incomes below the official poverty level. In total, 2.5m pensioners in Britain are said to be living in poverty. Up to £1.3bn in Pension Credit goes unclaimed. The Pension Credit take-up rate is the lowest in the East Midlands, London, the North West, South West and Wales where the number of pensioners who are eligible but don?t claim is higher than those actually receiving the benefit (see table below for regional breakdown). The DWP study also offers a number of reasons as to why pensioners are reluctant to make a claim. These include: Feeling that the process of claiming is demeaning Being unaware of the rules and/or a belief that they are ineligible to claim An unwillingness to disclose personal information A complicated and off-putting claiming process Dot Gibson, NPC vice president said: ?When Gordon Brown was in opposition in 1993, he claimed he wanted to be the first Labour chancellor to end the means-testing of Britain?s elderly, yet he has been the architect behind the biggest expansion of means-testing of pensioners since WWII. After five years. The Pension Credit still fails to reach 2m of the country?s poorest older people ? because they are unwilling to take part in what they see as a demeaning process. It?s time the government realised that pensioners and means-testing simply don?t mix. What older people want is an end to means-testing and a decent state pension which is set above the poverty level of £151 a week and rises each year in line with earnings.? ---------------------------------------------------------- I was 60 this past April, ive been campaigning on hehalf of Britains pensioners for 20 years, see my profile. I believe the UK s stae pension should be £250 a week per single pensioners, and £300 a couple. Also that pensioners should not have to pay tax, because they have already paid their share of tax. And before some bright spark asks, "whose going to pay for this increase" ?????????. These people ask this because they are selfishingly thinking of themselves, they forget that they would not be here today if it was not for our war veterans efforts during World War 2. The answer is this. The Government means test system is costing over 10 times more of income tax payers money than it would cost to restore the state pensions link with national average wages. The government are sitting on a "surplus" in National Insurance contributions exceeding £40 billion, that is set to increase to £74.1 billion in 2012, and the Government use just 5 per cent Gross National Product on the state pension in this country, compared to European countries where their Government's use more than double at 12 per cent, because EU state pensions are higher.

Voting Question: NEED SOME HELP WITH THIS ?
Linda Stern, president of Venician Fashions Inc., believes that reporting operating cash flow per share on the income statement would be a useful addition to the company?s just completed financial statements. The following discussion took place between Linda Stern and Venician Fashions? controller, Ben Trotter, in January, after the close of the fiscal year. Linda: I have been reviewing our financial statements for the last year. I am disappointed that our net income per share has dropped by 10% from last year. This is not going to look good to our shareholders. Isn?t there anything we can do about this? Ben: What do you mean? The past is the past, and the numbers are in. There isn?t much that can be done about it. Our financial statements were prepared according to generally accepted accounting principles, and I don?t see much leeway for significant change at this point. Linda: No, no. I?m not suggesting that we ?cook the books.? But look at the cash flow from operating activities on the statement of cash flows. The cash flow from operating activities has increased by 20%. This is very good news?and, I might add, useful information. The higher cash flow from operating activities will give our creditors comfort. Ben: Well, the cash flow from operating activities is on the statement of cash flows, so I guess users will be able to see the improved cash flow figures there. Linda: This is true, but somehow I feel that this information should be given a much higher profile. I don?t like this information being ?buried? in the statement of cash flows. You know as well as I do that many users will focus on the income statement. Therefore, I think we ought to include an operating cash flow per share number on the face of the income statement?someplace under the earnings per share number. In this way users will get the complete picture of our operating performance. Yes, our earnings per share dropped this year, but our cash flow from operating activities improved! And all the information is in one place where users can see and compare the figures. What do you think? Ben: I?ve never really thought about it like that before. I guess we could put the operating cash flow per share on the income statement, under the earnings per share. Users would really benefit from this disclosure. Thanks for the idea?I?ll start working on it. Linda: Glad to be of service. How would you interpret this situation? Is Ben behaving in an ethical and professional manner? (more...)
