Keeping Customers

Two studies were conducted focusing on why customers leave a company.

In one study that included retail businesses, 68% of customers left because they felt neglected or felt an attitude of indifference toward them.

In another study that focused on 10,000 industrial customers, 82% of them said they left for the same reason. (Source: Industrial Distribution 1996).
