Customer PyramidsComponents of Customer Pyramid
Active Customers –that have purchased goods from company within a given period
Inactive Customers – that have purchased goods from company in the past but not within the given period.
Prospects – with whom there is some kind of relationship – but they have not yet purchased any goods. For example those who have responded to a mailing. The prospects, of course, are customers you expect to upgrade to active customer status in the near future.

Suspects –that company could be able to serve with products and services in future. Normally, company seeks to begin a relationship with suspects and qualify them as prospects
The Rest of the World – that simply have no need or desire to purchase company’s products and services.

The Customer Pyramid
21
The Platinum Tier
Most profitable customers, Heavy users of the product, not overly price sensitive,
willing to invest in and try new offerings, and are committed to the firm.
The Gold Tier
Profitability levels are not as high, perhaps because the customers want price discounts that limit margins.
They might not be as loyal to the firm even though they are heavy users in the product category – they might minimize risk by working with multiple vendors rather than just the focal company.
![Page 22: Customer Relationship Management (CRM ). CRM ? “Strategy” “Strategy” “An approach to building and sustaining “An approach to building and sustaining long-term](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070407/56649e455503460f94b3a761/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
22
The Iron Tier
Provide the volume needed to utilize the firm’s capacity
Spending levels, loyalty, and profitability are not substantial enough for special treatment.
The Lead Tier
Costing the company money. They demand more attention than they are due
given their spending and profitability, and they are sometimes problem customers –
complaining about the firm to others and tying up the firm’s resources.

Differentiating Business Customers in the Retail Real Estate Industry

• Pay full commission on a home costing Rs 50
Lakh or more;• are motivated to purchase within the next six
months;• have purchased more than two homes in the
past;• and are members of social or professional
networks that make them candidates to refer
other high-end buyers.
Platinum customers:
![Page 25: Customer Relationship Management (CRM ). CRM ? “Strategy” “Strategy” “An approach to building and sustaining “An approach to building and sustaining long-term](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070407/56649e455503460f94b3a761/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
25
Purchase homes in the R25 L-50 L range but are more
price sensitive than the top tier. E.G. some Gold
customers want to negotiate on the commission or
have the realtors pay points at closing.
Some of these customers buy homes that are in the
same price range as Platinum customers but their price
sensitivity reduces their profitability.
Likely to refer others, but the types of customers to be
referred are not as valuable to the firm as those the
Platinum customers refer.
Gold customers:
![Page 26: Customer Relationship Management (CRM ). CRM ? “Strategy” “Strategy” “An approach to building and sustaining “An approach to building and sustaining long-term](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070407/56649e455503460f94b3a761/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

• Buy homes in the Rs 10 L- Rs25 L range, and include retirees, young professionals, and families.
• Young professionals have higher lifetime value potential and therefore market to them differently than to market to others in this group.
• Young professionals who purchase homes at the upper end are tagged as potential Gold customers and moved to that category approximately five years after the purchase of a home.
• Relocations from other areas and are pressed to buy homes quickly, making them good prospects for the company despite home prices that are lower than the top two tiers.
Iron customers:
![Page 27: Customer Relationship Management (CRM ). CRM ? “Strategy” “Strategy” “An approach to building and sustaining “An approach to building and sustaining long-term](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070407/56649e455503460f94b3a761/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
27
Shoppers rather than buyers.
• Some Lead customers spend as long as two years looking at homes, calling upon realtors to show them homes when they have free time
• While they might be looking at homes in all price ranges, the homes they buy are likely to be under Rs 10 L.
• Often dissatisfied with what they see, making them less likely than other tiers to send qualified referrals to the company.
Lead customers:

• Large accounts that are willing to plan a certain amount of
research during the year.
• The timing and nature of this research could be anticipated,
making it easy for the research firm to smooth supply and
demand.
• Tended to stay with the company and are willing to try new
services and approaches developed by the research firm.
• Therefore, they bought across research service types and
had minimal sales costs averaging only 2-5%.
• Willing to serve as references for the firm and are loyal to
the firm.
Platinum customers

• had similar profiles except that they were more
price sensitive, inclined to spread their research
budgets across several firms.
• While they were large accounts and had been
customers for multiple years, they were not willing
to plan for a year in advance even though the
marketing research firm would give them better
quality if they did.
• They provided referrals but on an ad hoc basis.
Gold customers:

31
• Moderate spenders and conducted research on a project
basis, sending out requests-for-proposals whenever
they were conducting studies.
• Look for the lowest price and often do not allow
sufficient time to perform the jobs.
• Because they have no overall plan, projects come in at
any time
• Selling costs are high because the firm continually kept
in personal and mail contact hoping to move these Iron
customers up the Pyramid.
Iron customers

32
• Spent little on research, conducted isolated projects that
are usually of a “quick and dirty” nature.
• Selling costs are highest in this group since advertising
and almost all speculative presentations are targeted to
these accounts and salespeople have to spend multiple
visits to get them.
• Once they became clients, the maintenance cost is high
because they don’t understand the process of research.
• They often changed projects mid-stream and expected
the firm to absorb the costs.
Lead customers

When Should a Firm Use the Customer Pyramid?
33
When service resources, including employee time, are limited.
When customers want different services or service levels.
When customers are willing to pay for different levels of service.
When customers define value in different ways.
When customers can be separated from each other.
When service differentials can lead to upgrading customers to another level.
When they can be accessed either as a group or individually.

Customer alchemy is the art of turning less profitable
customers into more profitable customers.
It can take place at any tier along the Customer
Pyramid, but is more difficult at some levels than at
others.
e.g: it is very difficult to move Lead customers up to
Gold or Platinum tiers, and it is often necessary to “get
the Lead out” rather than try to move those customers
up.

36
If the decision is made to keep Lead customers, the
strategies used are typically different than those
used at other tiers.
Managing Expectations can help to move the
customers up the ladder

Growing “share of customer”
Increasing the share of the customer’s purchasing in your product category.
Best way is through cross-selling
– Getting more business from current customers by selling them additional or complementary services
e.g : yatra.com, mytrip.com etc
