I live in Virginia, United States - and I took a rental car from Enterprise Rental Car company and I was very happy with one of their gesture.

I and my brother-in-law called up this company's customer service and they said they will pick us up from our home and even drop us back to our home from the rental car place. Isn't that a wonderful feature or service they provide to the customers.

In fact, I was very happy about that feature - When someone is taking a rental car - 80% of the reason would be that the customer does not have a car, but he/she is licensed to drive and want to go places. So, considering this it perfectly makes perfect sense to have this service and I am sure many people will like this service.

If any other rental car company does not provide this service, please take this up. It is worth trying. BTW, I will go only to Enteprise, since they have pleased me!!:-)

Form Tighter Bonds With Customers:

Know how to replenish your customers' inventory.
Know what's on your customers' shopping lists, and what's going to be on them.
Know how customers perceive their needs. Often, it's not what you think.
Know what they've bought from other vendors, and how you stack up.
Reduce your costs via demand forecasting and tight customer integration.
Become your customers' long-term supplier.
Attract new customers and larger orders.

A customer's shopping list is their future shopping cart. It predicts what they will buy. You can get this prediction for tomorrow, next week, or next month, for example.

How can you differentiate between your satisfied customers and your loyal customers? Here are eight ways. They are equally relevant to your external customers as they are to your internal employee customers.

1.Pricing. You negotiate prices with satisfied customers. You negotiate costs with loyal customers.
2.Payment. Satisfied customer pay at their discretion. Loyal customers pay on time.
3.Referrals. Satisfied customers become referrals of your competitors. Loyal customers willingly provide referrals to you.
4.Turnover. Generally, you will experience turnover rates of 15% or higher of satisfied customers. The turnover rate of loyal customers will be less than 5% and will be for reasons out of your control.
5.Competitive data. Your satisfied customers are seeking competitive data. Your loyal customers are sharing competitive data.
6.Perception. Satisfied customers perceive you as a commodity provider. Loyal customers perceive you as a partner.
7.Contract. You will need a contract to keep many satisfied customers in place. You have a virtual lifetime contract with your loyal customers.
8.Difficult times. Satisfied customers will leave you. Loyal customers will stay by your side.

When Defect Tracking and Customer Support are integrated, companies find:

- Customer defects are identified and resolved faster.
- The cost of collecting defect data is greatly reduced.
- Development and QA engineers spend more time working on issues and less time collecting information about bugs and defects.
- When the defect is resolved, customers are notified more rapidly.
- Customer Support agent time is better used and productivity improves.
- Customer Support and Development use a common language and terminology, which makes their communication more effective.
- Comprehensive reporting and analysis of customer-related defects is now possible.

Today in our company are struggling with this problem. We need to integrate Customer Support System and Issue Tracking System, in order to reap the benefits.

Building a single software program that serves the needs of people in finance as well as it does the people in human resources and in the warehouse is a tall order. Each of those departments typically has its own computer system optimized for the particular ways that the department does its work. But ERP combines them all together into a single, integrated software program that runs off a single database so that the various departments can more easily share information and communicate with each other.

That integrated approach can have a tremendous payback if companies install the software correctly.

ERP is very a powerful tool.

Customer and Interation with them in a funny way

There are three parts of application architecture of CRM:

Operational - automation to the basic business processes (marketing, sales, service)
Analytical - support to analyze customer behavior, implements business intelligence alike technology
Collaborative - ensures the contact with customers (phone, email, fax, web, sms, post, in person)

It is very difficult to acquire a customer to your place to buy your products. The next challenging thing to do is retaining that particular customer to buy your products more or less the same he was buying.

Here is an incident, I recently came across in Virginia, USA.

I went to a grocery store in our neighbourhood on a saturday evening and bought things for myself, and stood in the queue, which was really really long.

There were only three counters opened. It could have been easier to all of the customers, if more counters were opened.

When I was in the middle of the queue, I saw every customer seeing the length of the queue and giving strange shocking expressions, which was appropriate in fact!

One old lady who was having two milk items, saw this long queue and asked an employee - why don't you guys open another counter. The employee said - "we don't have any more cashiers madam. Sorry about that".

You know what that old lady said - "Well, this purchase of two or three items is not worth standing in this queue"!! and she stepped out, leaving her cart on the side!

Well the grocery stores company lost this customer and she will say this to lot many people, which is going to affect these guys' business!!

It is better the grocery store introspects and corrects themselves!!
These kind of mistakes happen, but it is better we correct them as a precautionary measure or corrective measure, whichever is applicable.

Note: the grocery store name is not exposed here!

When we buy a product or commodity in a super market, if the vendor or shop owner gives you something extra or chocolates free - psychologically we tend to go to the same shop to buy in the same shop. Same thing applies to every business.

If you are running a business, give something extra and free to the customer, whenever he drops by - that makes the customer loyal to you and he/she will just come to your shop and nowhere.

I have been to many indian restaurants in Kansas City. But I was amazed at an indian restaurant in Overland Park, USA - Kormasutra.

You will not believe how beautifully they take care of you, as a customer. They understand the value of the customer. They realize that because of customers only they get business.

As you know usually indian foods, needs a hand wash somehow, after eating. They even literally washed my hands and wiped it with the towel, after I had my dinner.

Another important point is they gave me dessert after I had my ordered meals.
This is something every business owner has to learn. Giving something extra to the customer is very important.
