Analysing customer defections and their effects on corporate performance: the case of Indco

Article Abstract:

Companies spend considerable amounts of time and money advertising, running promotions and launching new products in an attempt to attract new customers. What is seldom recognised is the importance of keeping existing customers. The pseudonym IndCo is used to represent a UK sudsidiary of an American company and a detailed breakdown of relevant factors such as customer age, defection probability and marketing to existing customers is given. The analysis concludes that the costs of retaining customers are lower than the cost of attracting new customers.
