Customer dynamics refers to the ongoing exchange of information and transactions between a customer and a vendor, including emotions and relationship building. Assessing customer dynamics helps to identify ways to strengthen ties with customers, gather feedback for product improvement, and potentially lead to changes in policies and procedures.
Customer dynamics is a term used to describe the flow of activities that takes place between a customer and a vendor or vendor. The scope of this type of activity will include the free exchange of information, as well as any type of transaction that takes place between the two parties. As part of the process, customer dynamics goes beyond simply observing the buying activity generated by the customer and includes considering the range of emotions and building relationships that occur as part of this ongoing exchange of information. This approach can help qualify the level of relationship and loyalty that each party exhibits towards the other, which in turn can help define the value of the relationship for each of the parties involved.
As part of assessing customer dynamics, several types of interactions are taken into account. This starts with the level of rapport and trust established during initial sales contacts, through creating customer accounts, processing customer orders, and the nature of interactions between customers and customer support personnel. Within the scope of these types of interactions, every type of communication is considered important to the dynamics of the relationship. Phone calls, emails, face-to-face meetings, and the ease of placing and receiving orders all help to provide a more accurate assessment of the existing relationship between customer and supplier.
There are several benefits to understanding customer dynamics. A very important result of this activity is that suppliers can identify ways to strengthen ties with customers. This is important because customers who feel more invested in a particular vendor are less likely to deviate from competitors based on their loyalty to the vendor. Even if competitors offer very attractive prices or other incentives, the chances that the customer will at least offer the provider a chance to counter the offer are greatly increased. In some cases, the dynamic between customer and provider can be so strong that the consideration of working with a competitor is neither practical nor desirable.
Vendors can also use strong customer dynamics as a means of gathering feedback that makes it possible to improve current products or even develop new ones in an effort to meet additional needs expressed by customers. From this perspective, evaluating all information exchanges between the two parties can pave the way for new ideas that ultimately benefit all involved. Along with improving product line reach, this kind of healthy exchange can sometimes lead to changes in policies and procedures that provide additional benefits to customers and help strengthen existing ties.
