Developing loyal customers - not just satisfying your customer's needs - is the critical difference in creating sustainable organizational success. Customer loyalty should be the outcome of every customer interaction. Customer loyalty is a powerful competitive advantage. The value of loyal customers is: they always return, they brag about your organization providing word of mouth advertising, they are willing to pay more for your product and service, and when there is a mistake loyal customers are more forgiving. Research tells us that the only way to create customer loyalty is through an emotional connection since most buying decisions are based on emotion not need.
