Will you be a ground-breaking Tesco or a catch-up Sainsbury?

Article Abstract:

The introduction of a loyalty branding scheme by UK homebuilder Westbury is an innovative example of marketing in the homebuilding sector. Westbury has introduced a range of home-related products and services which are marked with the Westbury logo and offered at discount prices to all Westbury homeowners. The market is waiting to see if the scheme is a success, although many other housebuilders are expected to follow suit and develop their own range of branded goods, which build on customer loyalty.

Same old story - different ending

Article Abstract:

Ensuring customer satisfaction through a common-sense approach is one of the most important objectives of a housebuilding firm, although many fail to implement simply yet effective management changes. US housebuilders achieve a high rate of referral sales by ensuring complaints are dealt with swiftly, employees put customers first and management teams are committed to ensuring a good deal for both customer and workers.
