A 5% increase in retention produces a 25% increase in profit, a significant focus area for demand stimulation as the main purpose.
Background
Demand stimulation activities are a natural evolution of a robust growth system. Once revenue has been acquired and retention activities occur, stimulation activities are possible. The main goal is to increase consumption, which is undertaken by looking into
- Value creation,
- Value enhancement,
- Value-added activities, and
- Value realignment
These value-focused activities are optimal at the Demand stimulation stage. This is because the initial value has been established, but the value needs to evolve to retain further and grow revenues. This is often best in evaluating problems created:
- your solution as a byproduct,
- issues not addressed well enough, and
- issues not addressed at all.
Getting pinpoint-focused on creating superior value based on an already established trusted relationship creates significant growth at a much lower cost.
Context
A growth system is vital to stimulating demand; when the growth system is well optimized, this enables overall growth to become exponential. This is even more valuable to growth when you can stimulate more demand for retention purposes. When this is done well, not only does retention work better, but the next step of growing existing revenue becomes much more accessible. This paves the path for long-term and more sustainable exponential growth.
Takeaway
Return on investments significantly goes up when stimulating demand works. The initial cost of customer acquisitions goes down with time and the customer lifetime value goes up. In some cases, utilization rates within the total lifetime value dramatically increase with a 90%+ impact on overall gross revenue.
