To the companies which have seriously decided to increase the efficiency at the expense of development of relations with clients, it is necessary to trace not only the general dynamics of sales and number of the clients who have left to competitors, but also dynamics of consumer behaviour (decrease / increase in quantity of purchases, the sum of monthly purchases of the client, quantity of its references in year, debts presence on payment etc.). Thus it is important to observe following principles:

Identification of the client is the system of knowledge of the client and comprehension of his value. The more information the company knows about the clients, the better situation is for this company. That the company could estimate the client (including about the possible contribution to its profitableness) with a considerable share of probability, it should make representation being based on the data of channels of marketing, events and history of mutual relations.

Adherence (loyalty) of the client. A main objective is creation of groups of loyal consumers (adherents), preservation of loyalty of the necessary consumers for the company.
The adherent (the true loyal consumer) of the companies is a buyer who in a choice situation prefers its brand and is ready to pay for it the price award. These buyers are tolerant to such actions of competitors as changes of the prices of the goods and services, discounts etc. Thus, it is the most predicted group of clients which can bring and brings to the companies the maximum benefit.

Century Differentiation of clients is reference of clients to groups by the criteria chosen by the company. Working out and the offer for each group of clients of the adequate programs corresponding to conditions of a competition and strategy of development of the company. The best clients should receive more attention, and the clients who are not bringing anything should be deduced from system. So the balance of requirements of the client and interests of the company is saved.

Personification is the offer of the company to the client, the above its competitiveness in the market is more personalised. Thus personification does not need to be taken literally. Each company operates in this aspect according to the possibilities (the the client base of the company is in a greater degree detailed, it is closer to individual inquiry of the client).

Work with clients is not only sales, but also to – and the relations after the sale. Effective sales extend before business process of attraction, involving, deduction and service of the client, its “reproduction” in which all resources of the company are involved. At each stage of relations the spectrum of the goods given to the client and services extends, mutual relations with it become stronger and develop, the importance of the client for the company and quality of programs offered raises.
