Well a customer is always tend to be the king for any company. to re-win the trust of the customer and reliability of the company the marketing staff have to show and express out the product benefits as customer always seek for product benefits and positivities. Show that Customers are valued not for the company's benefits rather for customer's own good. ;)
Find out exactly what made him leave,even though it is a bad management result to start with,if you allow yourself to lose a customer you are way way behind the game .
losing a customer is a result of an action on your side,take care of your customers first and foremost,it is always too late.
Win back strategy will include but not limited to
1- conclude data base marketing( every thing about the customer)
2- interacting with customers ( reasons for losing )
3- develope loyalty programmes ( to ensure that he will not leave again )
4- create institutional tie ( your service or product are essential for him to do his business in the proper way)
Winning a customer again needs few simple steps. There should be no link between the customer and anything related to the bad experience he faced with the company. The customer service should be different if he left because of it. The marketing of the product should be different, the support. The customer should feel that the company is aware of its problems and issues and worked on them. The company should ask the main questions to rewin this customer: is the product low quality, is the sales team not qualified enough, is the customer service not replying to needs, is the technical department not fixing problems on time so the customer is fet up. This process will help the company for sure to never lose a customer.
to re-win a lost customer we have to be more visible in their office atleast3 times a week or if possible almost everyday. offer them reasonable rates and engage in their social and company activities. Provide the best service as everybody gets. Give them update and honest reports about their shipments.
