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.

Customers dont 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 success - your customers. Value-Based Marketing for Bottom-Line Success helps you return your customers to their rightful place at the top of your organizations strategic hierarchy. It is sure to be the most valuable book for your business you read this year.
