Essay

1. Many organizations, such as banks, offer significant incentives to

attract new customers, such as discounts and freebies. However,

existing customers rarely receive incentives to stay. What do you think

of such practices? What are the implications-pro or con- of them?

The incentives is a prat that would benefit the costumer and

company but it cannot the possible ways to increase profitability of the

business because not all people are businessman and they have things to

consider when dealing the account that they opened and dealt with.

Let’s talk about the pro’s and con’s to identify what’s the

differences and risk by giving this incentives.


First, is the Pro’s.The incentives could the way to find some

people and commercialized to open them a bank accounts.Reward

checking products provide incentives or perks to account holders when

certain preset monthly requirements are met. The perks for customers

could include a higher annual percentage yield , ATM surcharge refunds,

or cash back on debit card purchases. The monthly requirements to earn

the “reward” typically are a combination of debit card swipes, enrollment

in electronic statements or online banking, and having a direct deposit or

other ACH transaction into the account.

One of the pros to reward checking products is that customers

frequently switch FIs, or open a new account for the perks and incentives,

especially if more favorable than nearby competitors. Another is the

rewards eligibility requirements generate revenue, by driving debit card

interchanges, and adds to cost savings, by eliminating mailed paper

statements and possible branch visits.

While the Cons are Many community banks and credit unions use

third party, one-size-fits-all reward product sets, which are expensive to

purchase rights to and then operate. A financial institution pays the

company monthly for the platform the product runs on, along with paying

possible interest or cash back earned by the account. Another con is, if
built incorrectly, rewards products can have a negative impact on the

financial institution; for example having mispriced balance tiers or APYs

cause the product to potentially lose money.

2. Explain the importance of commitments to building customer

relationships.

Powerful customer relationships are essential to business success.

But, they aren’t built overnight. Just like personal relationships, it’s

important to cultivate and nurture customer relationships. When

organizations develop strong relationships with their customers, it can

lead to loyal clients, positive word of mouth and increased sales. On the

other hand, while meaningful relationships require time and effort to

build, they can fall apart quickly. Relationships taken for granted

deteriorate in a flash. The key philosophy to remember is that strong

relationships are built around making the other person feel important.

When you accomplish this on an ongoing basis, success will follow.


3. Explain the difference between satisfaction and loyalty. Why is

loyalty more important?

First, we will define each term. Customer Satisfaction is a

measurement of customer attitudes regarding products, services, and

brands. Customer Loyalty on the other hand has two definitions.

Customer Loyalty consists of loyalty behavior also referred to as

customer retention which is the act of customers making repeat purchases

of current brands, rather than choosing competitor brands. Secondly,

Customer Loyalty encompasses loyalty attitudes which are opinions and

feelings about products, services, brands, or businesses that are associated

with repeat purchases. At times, customers display loyalty behavior

without having loyalty attitudes.  Vice versa, occasionally customers

show loyalty attitudes without exhibiting any loyalty behavior.

Why is loyalty is more important because

customer loyalty measures something more than satisfaction  it measures

whether someone is willing to put their name on the line and recommend

your product or service to others or if they are willing to stick with your

product/service in spite of an occasional poor experience.


4. Can you describe a customer-focused organization similar to

Jollibee, and KFC with which you have had personal experience? What

aspects of the fast food chain impressed you the most?

The Mcdonalds, which competes the Jollibee and I think they

better services and quality because we have different taste and like of

food. In the Philippines Jollibee was first built here and most popular,

but the time pass by many fast food restaurant like Macdonalds interest

Filipino people which they loved fast food. In order to compete Jollibee

they built here a restaurant with taste of Filipino and that’s what it is

really hard to choose which of these are way better than the other.

The aspects that I was impress to Macdonalds was there designed

of the table appointments which I think it’s unique and they had

friendly environment to the costumer that’s why I like it at most.
