customer to call for any comments or
enquiries.
 Accountable Marketing – The sales person
calls the customers to ensure whether the
product is working as per satisfaction and if
there is any problem in the product.
Furthermore he also asks the customer for
any suggestions / feedback to improve the
service / product. Thus he is taking
responsibility for the sale.
 Proactive marketing – The company works
continuously with its large customers to help
improve performance. This is especially seen
in financial companies wherein the
movement in the financial market induces the
company to make changes regularly.
However at the same time, these financial
companies have to take care of their
customers as well. Thus they take regular
feedback from their large customers thereby
developing their products accordingly.

more negotiation because products are often
designed for each customer.
