be created more easily from customers who are
loyal - it typically costs less to retain than acquire
- It provides pricing power in the marketplace and
protection from competitive threat - It provides a platform for stronger, deeper
relationships with customers - Our High Performance research highlighted that 5
key marketing capabilities have a central and
direct impact on a companys ability to achieve
high customer loyalty. - Customer loyalty in turn has a direct impact on
value generation -gtgt High performers increased
revenues by 40 and profits by 38 leading to an
