Many customers\u00a0<strong>leave the company quietly and without further notice<\/strong>, which makes it all the more difficult to define a churn.

The respective value of the customer must also be taken into account. This value is also used to decide whether any recovery measures are worthwhile or not. The following questions provide an answer or assessment of the individual customer value :<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Has the customer made regular purchases?<\/li>\n<li>How big were their bills?<\/li>\n<li>How long has the consumer been our customer?<span class=\"\" style=\"display:block;clear:both;height: 0px;padding-top: 20px;border-top-width:0px;border-bottom-width:0px;\"><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Of course, it is only worthwhile to win back those customers who appear to be long-term\u00a0<strong>lucrative and profitable partners<\/strong>. There is no point in investing time and money in consumers who cost more than they ultimately bring in.

If companies react quickly to termination, this conveys an appreciation of the customer.<\/p>\n<p>The simplest method, which usually only generates a small return (maximum 10-20%), is the\u00a0<strong>written survey<\/strong>. For this purpose, customers who have terminated are sent a questionnaire in which they can share their reasons for termination. Another measure is a\u00a0<strong>telephone consultation<\/strong>. Although this requires more time and therefore money, you usually get much better and informative insights.<\/p>\n<p>Customers usually perceive it very positively when a company makes this effort and enquire about the exact reasons for termination.

However,\u00a0<strong>acquiring new customers is usually much more costly.<\/strong>\u00a0In addition, with the loss of previously loyal customers, you also lose a certainly guaranteed turnover. It is therefore worth rolling up your sleeves here and developing and implementing suitable measures.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>New customers vs. recovery<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 save costs: A rule of thumb is that replacing a customer with a new customer costs almost seven times as much as keeping existing customers. For this reason alone, it pays to retain the existing customer base as best as you can.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Admitting mistakes<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 converting detractors into promoters: First and foremost, dissatisfied customers should not be seen as a problem, but as an opportunity. Critics often no longer have high expectations of a company, which is why you can often convince with small measures and little effort. If a company shows an understanding of the customer&#8217;s situation, this can often be used to revise the negative impression.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Prevent snowball effect\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013\u00a0The accumulation of negative experiences can lead to dissatisfied customers completely separating themselves from the company. Quick action is required to prevent the molehill from becoming a mountain. In addition, detractors are twice as likely to report negative experiences as promoters of positive experiences with their company.<span class=\"\" style=\"display:block;clear:both;height: 0px;padding-top: 20px;border-top-width:0px;border-bottom-width:0px;\"><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Even if it is initially uncomfortable for many companies to deal with their own weaknesses, it is\u00a0<strong>essential in order to prevent customers from churning.<\/strong>\u00a0Self-reflective action, admitting mistakes, and working out individual solutions are particularly important here. If it has been possible to identify vulnerabilities, it is necessary to address them in order to prevent future customer churn. If it is possible to keep strong and loyal customers, this has a positive effect on the budget in marketing and the effort in sales. If an exodus could not be prevented, it makes sense to\u00a0<strong>invest in suitable recovery measures,<\/strong>\u00a0because lost regular customers often carry underestimated
