promise
• Inside a company, we are all customers and suppliers at somepoint.
• The general direction of the company is a provider of the board ofdirectors and, at the same time, is customer and supplier ofdifferent management areas
To take into account
• Every business unit plays the role of a customer as well as asupplier in between its own departments and towards the otherunits.
• All this part of the organization may be called the back office ofthe first line. The support of the final customer’s delivery.
• The first line is the face of the company for our end customers.
• Most of customer contacts are made in the first line, so here are thebest “customer profilers“ and those who know best the strengths andweaknesses of our products and services.
• When the organization acknowledges the first line as an internalcustomer, the likelihood of providing a better experience to the endcustomer, increases.
• When the customers information, collected from the different areas, isused as feedback for the organization, the greater it is its ability toused as feedback for the organization, the greater it is its ability todesign more efficient strategies in the different areas.
• If the organization is focused on keeping their customer base, it has acertain chance to increase its perceived value, brand loyalty and ROI.
• …. if not, there will always be someone out there, who will have abetter offer which, if the switching cost is reasonable for thecustomer, will trigger his/her switch.
