    3 Secrets to Keeping Your Customers Happy

    Expectations. Value Added. The Experience.

    If you’re wondering the relationship among these words, it’s simple. These are three aspects of the relationship your customer has with your company which you can control to ensure that switching to your competition just wouldn’t be worth it, even if they are more aggressively marketing and charging lower prices.

    Expectations

    Think about it. If you establish appropriate expectations when you are courting a customer or client, there will be no disappointment, assuming you deliver what you promise as you promise it.

    For instance, think about the expectation you have when you go to a restaurant at lunch and their table tent promises that certain meals can be served in 15 minutes so you can be assured of being in and out in a timely manner. Well, what if that meal was served in 10 minutes? What if it was served in 25? All other factors being equal (quality of the meal and service), you would be thrilled in the first case and disappointed in the other one. Had they not promised anything, you may or may not have had an emotional response.
