Week 6 - A Healthy Relationship With Customers Can Boost Your Business's Performance

A standard merchandising business has a singular main goal it wishes to achieve every day— increase the total amount of sales. There are a multitude of different ways to achieve this goal. Businesses may offer discounts for customers who are buying in bulk or make special offers on payment plans and offer in-store credit. Whatever the case may be, these tactics are used in order to achieve the main goal of increasing sales. Taking a deeper analysis of why these tactics work, it is simple to see that a customer's main concern is to save as much money as possible while also purchasing quality goods. The businesses who can acknowledge and understand what it is that customers want from them are more capable of providing quality goods at an outstanding price that benefits everyone. This can be done through the use of payment plans, discounts, in-store credits, rebates, etc. Any way a business can maintain a healthy amount of profit through all the price cuts to their products can result in customers having a better relationship with that business.

What exactly does it mean to have a healthy relationship with one's customers? Simply put, it means that both parties are synchronized with what they want from each other.
