Their importance stems from their continued purchasing and consumption of your products, <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif;\">and benefit from your services. Even if some customers spend little when doing business with you, they are still valuable as long as they remain loyal.

And it would not just mean losing some of<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif;\"> the profits that had been coming in steadily and consistently. It would also suggest that something is wrong with your marketing and sales strategies, which could lead to <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif;\">you losing many more loyal customers in the future.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif;\">If a loyal customer decides to stop doing business with you and buying your products, it means they have put up with a lot before making such a decision. It also means that <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif;\">your occasional customers, who buy from you only infrequently, will not be patient with you; they will stop doing business with you right away.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif;\">A loyal customer is the light that shows you the way in a world teeming with competitors. (The marketplace is a contest for customers, not profits.) <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif;\">They are also the primary indicator of how successful or unsuccessful your marketing strategies are.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>,.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 28px; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif; color: #00ccff;\">What exactly are you losing?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif;\">Your perspective is too narrow if you think that losing a loyal customer means losing only their purchasing power; it can set off a chain of losses<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif;\"> that are interconnected, with each one leading to another.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif;\">To begin with, every loyal customer\u2014even one who buys infrequently\u2014represents significant financial value to your company. Consider, for example, what economist Tom Peters wrote in his book: <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif;\">\u201cThriving On Chaos\u201d:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif;\">\u201cAlthough my company is modest, with no more than 25 employees, it pays $1,500 every month\u2014the monthly bill for a company <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif;\">the expedited shipping service from Federal Express that you use. But if we calculate the total cost over ten years, it would amount to <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif;\">$180,000. I think this simple example illustrates how much a single customer could spend with one company over ten years.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif;\">No, that isn\u2019t the biggest loss. There\u2019s a greater, more damaging one: you lose a free marketer. Your loyal customer, convinced of the quality of the <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif;\">goods and services you offer, won\u2019t just make purchases\u2014they\u2019ll also, sometimes unconsciously, encourage their friends to buy from and do business with you. Imagine how much you could earn <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif;\">through this free marketing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif;\">Now, if we reverse this logic and imagine that this loyal customer stops doing business with you\u2014for example, because they\u2019re dissatisfied with the quality or service you provide\u2014they will become<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif;\"> A \u201cwrecking ball\u201d that will gnaw away at your profits\u2014it may be a friend turned bitter enemy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 28px; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif; color: #00ccff;\">Price and customer aversion: Is there a connection?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif;\">What if the reason your customers are losing interest and stopping business with you is that you raised your product prices?<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif;\">In reality, price is unlikely to be the main reason customers lose interest. The issue runs deeper than that: customers who stop doing business <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif;\">with you don\u2019t make that decision overnight.
