I think it depends on how well you know your customers.  It depends on how you underpromise and how you over deliver.  It's about the extra added value you can provide.  The detrimental factor can be that over time your customers will expect more and more over delivering.  It's a balance game.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Jacob Morgan</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 03 Apr 2008 12:50:22 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Managing Expectations</title><link>http://www.jmorganmarketing.com/managing-expectations/#comment-1701669</link><description>Long time ago, I was working at a big co  and they ran a study on customer loyalty. The top factor was 'managing expectations'...and it shows that over promise/under deliver was bad but that also, over time, under promise / over deliver could be detrimental too. The wisdom is to try to be right on the "do what you said you would do".</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Laurent</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 03 Apr 2008 12:40:24 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
