An absolute must.

I have rarely read a book that contained so much practical and useful advice for those working in a B-to-B environment. Of course, much of the advice is very recognizable, but that does not make it any less valuable.

In short, an absolute must for everyone who has commercial responsibility in complex business-to-business situations and really wants to work on client retention.

Why good clients fire great companies

This is the sequel to the first book from 1995. Whereas the first book was mainly an operational treatise on the process, this second book has a more strategic angle. Among other things, you are introduced to the Service Life Cycle, a principle that provides extremely important insight into remaining of relevant value to the clients you have fought so hard to win.

The translation and adaptation for the Dutch market was done by Martijn Rozendaal and Marco Reijntjens of Tenacity Europe. All four of them are involved in the subjects of account management and client retention on a daily basis. Together with their clients from all over the world they developed the best practices for service companies working with large accounts. All these best practices have been collected in an immediately implementable total process: Clients for Life®.
