al (2012)

Loyalty
Underlying Theory
Lewis (1999) considers TRULY LOYAL customers as those who feel
so strongly that their company can best meet their needs so
competitors rarely need to be considered.

Profitability
Lam et al (2004) stress the focus on customer
satisfaction.
According to Buttle (1997) profitability is enhanced
when customer retention is high and retention in
competitive markets is a product of customer
satisfaction.
Customer Satisfaction can result in ROI and market
value (Sheth & Sisodia 1999)
Indisputable Logic Theory Model
(Gummesson 1999)
Overall Themes
“Commitment Velocity” as a long term
relationship.
“A strong commitment to a relationship
develops if the relationship is mutually
beneficial to both parties (consumer and
company)” (Gilbert et al 2002)
Commitment Velocity Model
Berry (1995, cited in Hardwood 2008:109)
advises trust is crucial in service relationships
due to intangible nature.
“Trust is not itself a behavior nor a choice but an
underlying condition that can result from the
satisfaction of promised duties and functions.”
(Rousseau et al 1998)
Thank you for listening
Questions?
References
Loyalties Six Principals
Adapted from Reichheld (2001)
1)Preach what you practice.
It's not enough to have the right values. You must clarify them and
hammer them home to customers, employees, suppliers, and
shareholders through your words and deeds.
2)Play to win-win.
If you are to build loyalty, not only must your competitors lose. Your
partners must win.
3)Be picky.
At high loyalty companies, membership is a privilege. Clarify the
difference between loyalty and tenure.
4)Keep it simple.
In a complex world, people need small teams to simplify responsibility
and accountability. They also need simple rules to guide their decision
making.
5)Reward the right results.
Save your best deals for your most loyal customers, and save your best
opportunities for your most loyal employees and partners.
6)Listen hard, talk straight.
Visit call centers, Internet chat rooms, and anywhere else customers
offer feedback. Make it safe for employees to offer candid criticism.
