New customers cost more than keeping existing ones. Help executives make the most
of existing relationships by helping their customers make repeat purchases. Existing
customers have made an emotional commitment that required a large investment of time
to earn.

resources necessary to start from scratch again.

2. REVIEW OF LITERATURE
12
INTRODUCTION
A literature review discusses published information in a particular subject area, and
sometimes information in a particular subject area within a certain time period. A literature
review can be just a simple summary of the sources, but it usually has an organizational
pattern and combines both summary and synthesis. A summary is a recap of the
important information of the source, but a synthesis is a re-organization, or a reshuffling, of that
information. It might give a new interpretation of old material or combine new with old
interpretations. Or it might trace the intellectual progression of the field, including major debates.
And depending on the situation; the literature view may evaluate the sources and advice the
reader on the pertinent or relevant. This chapter began with retention, measuring retention,
importance of customer retention, advantage of customer retention, benefits of customer
retention.
CUSTOMER RETENTION
In todays challenging economy and competitive business world, retaining their customer
base is critical to organization success. If the company doesnt give their customer some good
reason to stay, organizations competitors will give the customer a reason to leave. Customer
retention and customer satisfaction drive profits. Its far less expensive to cultivate organization
existing customer base and sell more service to the customer than it to seek new, singletransaction customers. Most surveys across industries shows that keeping one existing customer
is five to seven times more profitable than attracting one new customer. A customer-focused
approach among its employees is still not present. In this era of intense competition .it is very
important for any service company to understand that merely acquiring customer is not sufficient
because there is a direct link between customer retention over time and profitability & growth.
Customer retention to a great extent depends on service quality and customer
satisfaction. Complaints are natural part of any service activity as mistakes are an unavoidable
feature of all human endeavor and thus also of service recovery. Service recovery is the process
of putting things right after something goes wrong in the service delivery. Customer retention is
the maintenance of continuous trading relationships with customers over the long term.
Customer retention is the mirror image of customer defection or chum.
13
High retention is equivalent to low defection. In an industry where there are a multiple
purchases over the years, organizations entire team should be very focused on retaining those
customers:
i.
Delivering service thats consistent with your value proposition and brand
ii.
iii.
iv.
v.
Knowing the lifetime value for different segments and using that data to improve the
marketing.
Studies say it costs ten times more to generate a new customer than to maintain an
existing one. If organization has a small number of customers, losing a few could cripple
company. Even if there are a large number of customers, a small increase in the rate should
dramatically increase profits.
The maintenance of the patronage of people who have purchased a companys goods or
services once and the gaining of repeat purchases. Customer retention occurs when a customer is
loyal to a company, brand, or to a specific product or service, expressing long-term commitment
and refusing to purchase from competitors. Of critical importance to such strategies are the wider
concepts of customer service, customer relations, and relationship marketing. Companies can
build loyalty and retention through the use of a number of techniques, including database
marketing, the issue of loyalty cards, redeemable against a variety of goods or service,
preferential discounts, free gifts, special promotions, newsletters or magazines, members clubs
or customized products in limited editions. It has been argued that customer retention is linked to
employee loyalty, since loyal employees build up long-term relationships with customers.
Customer retention has always been an important topic for the marketing. For sure, the
advantages of loyal clients are obvious. Often CRM is only implementing new systems for data
mining and client segmentation or operational system like a complaint management. But the
thing is: data mining system or client clubs are not the basis. They are the cherry of the cake
called client retention. A key principle of relationship marketing is the retention of customers
through varying means and practices to ensure repeated trade from preexisting customers by
satisfying requirements above those of competing companies through a mutually beneficial
relationship.
14
This techniques is now used as a means of counter balancing new customer and
opportunities with current and existing customers as a means of maximizing profit and
counteracting the leaky bucket theory of business in which new customer gained in order
direct marketing oriented businesses were at the expense of or coincided with the loss of older
customers. This process of "churning" is less economically viable than retaining all or the
majority of customers using both direct and relationship management as lead generation
via new customers requires more investment.
Many companies in competing markets will redirect or allocate large amounts of resources
or attention towards customer retention as in markets with increasing competition it may cost 5
times more to attract new customers than it would to retain current customers, as direct or
"offensive" marketing requires much more extensive resources to cause defection from
competitors. However, it is suggested that because of the extensive classic marketing theories
center on means of attracting customer and creating transactions rather than maintaining them,
the majority usage of direct marketing used in the past is now gradually being used more
alongside relationship marketing as its importance becomes more recognizable. According to
Buchanan and Gilles the increased profitability associated with customer retention efforts occurs
because of several factors that occur once a relationship has been established with a
customer.
i.
The cost of acquisition occurs only at the beginning of the relationship, so the longer the
relationship, the lower the amortized cost.
ii.
iii.
Long-term customers tend to be less inclined to switch, and also tend to be fewer prices
sensitive. This can result in stable unit sales volume and increase in dollar-sales volume.
iv.
Long-term customer may initiate free word of mouth promotions and referrals.
v.
Long-term customers are more likely to purchase ancillary products and high margin
supplemental products.
vi.
Customer that stay with company tend to be satisfied with the relationship and are less
likely to switch to competitors, making it difficult for competitors to enter the market or
gain market share.

FOSTERING
GREATER
INTERACTION
BETWEEN
BUSINESS
AND CUSTOMER
Todays markets are increasingly moving away from mass produced standard products
and service, towards a more customized market, where products and service are tailored to meet
customers specific requirements. Having a repeat customer is an opportunity for you to build a
more focused relationship based on your customers specific needs and requirements. Being
ensured of having a customer who comes back, you have more confidence to suggest
improvements, provide an insight to better understand their needs and consequently design
products and services that are relevant. Having a repeat business also provides an opportunity for
the buyer and the seller to co-create products and services.

RECOMMENDATIONS
The unmarried people are actually not interested to take insurance. They wanted to invest
their money in other fields like buying a house, bike, buildings, and real-estate etc. They are even
ready to take risk for more earnings.
The married peoples are interested in insurance for the benefit of their partner as well as their
children and medical expenses. Generally educated people understand easily so most of graduate
clearly understand the benefits of insurance policies.
So IDBI Federal Life Insurance Corporation Limited can develop a new policy by targeting
the unmarried people.
IDBI have to increase their promotional activities in such a way that even unskilled persons
understand the importance of their Insurance add value to their customer.
