In the rush to build Internet businesses, many executives mistakenly concentrate all their attention on attracting customers rather than retaining them. But chief executives at the cutting edge of e - commerce - from eBay's Meg Whitman to Vanguard's Jack Brennan - know that customer loyalty is an economic necessity : acquiring customers on the Internet is very expensive, and unless customers stick around and make lots of repeat purchases, profits will remain elusive. For the past two years, the authors have studied e - loyalty. Contrary to the popular perception that on - line customers are fickle by nature, they found that most of today's on - line consumers exhibit a clear proclivity toward loyalty, and Web technologies, if used correctly, reinforce that inherent loyalty. In this article, the authors explain the enormous advantages of retaining on - line buyers. They also describe what Grainger, Dell, America Online, and other Internet leaders are doing to gain their customers' trust and earn their loyalty. By encouraging repeat purchases among a core of profitable customers, companies can initiate a spiral of economic advantages. This loyalty effect enables them to compensate their employees more generously, provide investors with superior cash flows, and reinvest more aggressively to further enhance the value delivered to customers.
