FANOMICS(R)

Every company wants to turn its customers into true and lifelong fans. In this book, Roman Becker and Gregor Daschmann, the discoverers of the Fan Principle and FANOMICS, demonstrate how this can be actually accomplished. They transfer the mechanisms of fan relationships from sports, music, and art to those between companies and customers. What turns a customer into a “fan” customer? How are these identified? And how can the Fan Rate be managed and even increased? This book provides answers to all these questions. Based on surveys and interviews with more than 100,000 respondents, it becomes clear that fans have the highest customer value and therefore contribute significantly to the economic success of a company. However, in order to win fan customers and increase these numbers, a complete rethinking of customer relationship management and a departure from the customary key performance indicators is necessary. Takingthis path is extremely worthwhile. Fan customers have an emotional connection to their provider and form a new, reliable “currency” - both as direct buyers and as active ambassadors.

This a must-read for all business decision-makers who want to improve the quality of their customer relationships, while saving money and achieving more than just short-term success.
