What "Ignore Your Customers" Tells You

In Ignore Your Customers Solomon presents an approach to customer service that he insists on delivering tremendous results. It is also immune to copying, he says:

"What I'm going to challenge you in this book is not easy: building an organization that focuses on your customers in a basic yet sophisticated way. But it will be an incredibly fruitful endeavor that will result in a multi-part payout:

  1. You keep a higher percentage of your existing customers
  2. You increase the expenditure per customer.
  3. You will gain new customers … and all in a way that is almost completely immune to being knocked off by competitors.

If this last claim, "immune to counterfeiting", sounds far-fetched, let me explain and defend my reasoning. I make this claim because I strongly suspect that if you do the work suggested in this book, you can sleep well knowing that your competition is unlikely to go down and do the same. Although your competition may copy your prices, mimic your innovations, duplicate the look of your website, etc., they are unlikely to provide the vision, energy, and follow-up needed to replicate the customer-centric organization that I & # 39 ; I am here to help you build. "

Solomon advises organizations to develop an "automatically positive" approach – employees who want to automatically answer "yes". Not "no" or "I'm not sure we can do it."

You should convey the following general attitude: "The answer is yes! What was your question now? "

He recognizes that companies cannot always say yes. However, he explains that in such situations there is almost always a way to mitigate the blow and say "no".
