Focused investments in customer success offer large demonstrable returns. Everyone talks about customer focus these days, but achieving it requires you to go far beyond "customer advocacy": you must bring your customer's perspective into every aspect of your business strategy, with a relentless focus on helping customers achieve measurable business outcomes.

Next, they guide you through every step of planning and execution, supporting you with clear tools and templates based in real organizational practice. The best way to reap long-term profits is to embed your customers' success throughout your own corporate DNA. That's what the world's best companies do. Competing for Customers doesn't just teach the lessons they've learned: it helps you apply those lessons right where you are, right now.
