This book fully explains the three stages in the evolution of customer care. Readers will be guided through the process of acquiring customers, retaining them through segmentation and management of the relationship, and targeting their most significant marketing efforts to the most profitable segments.

  • Shows companies how to identify where they are in their own evolutionary process
  • Outlines successes and failures of companies, including Sears, CIBC, AT&T/Matrixx, Kodak, FedEx, and more

Strategic Customer Care -- basic marketing with old fads 11 Nov 2001
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
The book rehashes various old fads and repeats some very basic marketing principles (such as the value of segmentation) that can be found in any basic marketing textbook. I could not find any new ideas in the book, which seems rather useless.
