Research has shown that it costs 5 to 25 times more for businesses to acquire new customers than to retain existing ones. Consequently, in today’s turbulent business landscape, it is essential for businesses to strategise ways to nurture customer relationships and retain the right customers if they want to succeed.

The Big Leap Roadshow, an event jointly organised by e27 and CleverTap, brings together hundreds of growth leaders, experts, investors, and entrepreneurs from Southeast Asia to exchange their ideas and insights. The collaborative event centres around actionable strategies and best practices for building strong customer relationships, reducing churn, and maximising customer lifetime value.

Following the success in Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, and Vietnam, the highly anticipated “Retention Playbook Philippines: Orchestrating Campaigns for Different Customer Segments” is coming to the Philippines on March 8th, 2023. This event is an absolute must-attend for businesses looking to gain an edge in today’s competitive landscape. Industry experts will lead discussions on the latest trends and insights in customer segmentation, which is the trending topic of focus at the event. Attendees will gain valuable insights and learn about the best approaches to segment and retain different groups of customers for long-term success. This game-changing event will make a significant difference to your business.

Industry experts will share their real-life experiences and insights on customer relationship management techniques such as segmentation, personalisation, loyalty programs, and more through engaging presentations.

The Big Leap Roadshow Manila’s focus on customer segmentation

Customer segmentation is a critical process for businesses to better understand their customers’ needs and preferences, leading to enhanced satisfaction. Segmentation can be done by demographics, psychographics, or behaviour patterns. It helps develop targeted marketing strategies that can reduce promotional costs, identify opportunities within existing customer bases, and prioritise important relationships for upselling and cross-selling instead of solely relying on acquiring new customers. Personalisation is becoming increasingly important as customers have become more demanding and show greater preferences for customised products and services.

Following the customer segmentation process, businesses must learn to utilise data and insights about each segment’s behaviour and preferences to help them make informed decisions about which products/services should be offered at what price points, and even the channels to engage customers with — which make all the differences when it comes down to driving sales numbers up.

For instance, unlike previous generations, Generation Z and Millennials can best be reached via social media networking sites such as Instagram and Facebook, video platforms such as YouTube and TikTok, and mobile applications. This is only one of the many examples of how one’s marketing approach can vary depending on the customer segment you intend to target.

Moreover, customised promotions can capture more conversion opportunities and increase satisfaction levels. Other retention strategies include excellent service quality, loyalty programs, automated messages, referral campaigns, and regular social media engagement. Positive experiences among current customers generate word-of-mouth, reducing the cost of paid advertisements and generating more organic sales.

These strategies help businesses in two folds: by cultivating a positive experience for the existing customer base while attracting new ones through word-of-mouth generated by happy consumers. Consequently, businesses can reduce the cost of paid advertisements and generate more sales organically through earned promotional coverage. 

Why it is imperative for businesses to learn from the best
