To be successful in today’s marketplace, a company must integrate its traditional business functions to provide superior value to targeted customers. This means creating an offering that echoes in the customers’ consciousness as a great deal for them. Why? Because the value provided serves customers best interests. In so doing, a business succeeds, attracts new customers, and is able to continually improve the value offered to existing customers.

Value Based Marketing for Bottom Line Success provides a 5-step model and critical tools necessary for creating and managing a successful Value Delivery marketing strategy. Customers buy value, not product or features. They buy from the company that provides the most value. And they buy what’s in their best interest. Consequently, the secret to customer retention and growing value relationships with customers is to always make it in their best interest to do business with you by providing the best value in the marketplace.

Value Based Marketing for Bottom Line Success: 5 Steps to Creating Competitive Value offers a Value Creation and Delivery process which will help a company to compete profitably in its marketplace by: 1) identifying the value expectations of target customers; 2) selecting the values on which it wants to compete; 3) analyzing the ability within the organization to deliver that value; 4) communicating the value & selling the value message; 5) delivering the value promised & improving the company’s value model.

A value-focused strategy, by definition, isn’t a mass marketing strategy; it’s a targeted laser strategy directed at chosen value segments that are profitable for the supplier. This text offers a customer value creation model, which shows how to create and sustain competitive advantage while delivering customer value and offers a method for quantifying customer lifetime value (CLV), which enables a company to identify which customer value segments it should target.

Use the five-step model in Value-Based Marketing for Bottom-Line Success to determine what those expectations are­­ and both meet and exceed them, today and well into the future.

"The value-based marketing approach described in this book reflects a reality for any business manager or leader at any level in the organization; the real game is delivering superior, meaningful value to target customers. Our value commitment to you is that Value-Based Marketing for Bottom-Line Success will both change the way you look at customers and your business and give you the knowledge and tools to really make a difference to your performance."
­­--From the Preface

Customers don't buy products or features. They buy value­--a total package of cost, product, and benefits that is in their best interests and has the most meaningful impact on their lives. And when customers find true value, they seldom leave­­--at least not until an even better value comes along.

Value-Based Marketing for Bottom-Line Success unveils a practical five-step model--­­a pentadigm­­--for discovering what your customers value and then creating and managing a top-to-bottom organizational value delivery strategy. Based on more than twenty years of hands-on experience and analysis, this down-to-earth model will help you accurately and convincingly:

  • Discover and quantify your customers' wants and needs
  • Commit to the most important things that will impact your customers
  • Create customer value that is meaningful and understandable
  • Assess how you did at creating true customer value
  • Improve your value package to keep your customers coming back

More than just a one-time, Band-Aid approach, the model outlined in this first-of-its-kind guidebook shows you not only how to implement value-based processes and improvements but how to evaluate and validate new ideas and approaches. In-depth analyses­­--along with real-life examples from Dell Computer, Southwest Airlines, GE, Dow Corning, and other acknowledged customer-value pioneers--allow you to discover and absorb the entire pentadigm model based on actual cases or to review specific issues and problem areas that are most relevant to your business and for which you currently face the greatest challenges and concerns.

When you get too caught up in bolstering your bottom-line today or insisting on becoming the lowest cost provider in your market segment, you lose sight of what really matters to your long-term success­­your customers. Value-Based Marketing for Bottom-Line Success helps you return your customers to their rightful place at the top of your organization's strategic hierarchy. It is sure to be the most valuable book for your business you read this year.
