房地产客户满意营销
内容摘要:本文阐述了客户满意的概念和特点,分析了房地产客户满意的构成要素,论述了房地产客户满意的意义,提出了提高客户满意的模型。
关键词:客户满意 房地产 客户关系管理
作为一种提升企业竞争力的工具,客户关系管理(Customer Relationship Management, CRM)已经引起了房地产业界的极大关注,并且在一些知名的房地产公司得到了应用。但是,目前还有很多人对于房地产开发企业需要实施CRM持反对态度。这些人之所以持有这种观点,主要是因为他们没有正确认识到房地产开发企业客户满意的意义。因此,正确认识房地产客户满意的构成要素和意义对于房地产业成功引入客户关系管理,有着重要作用。
客户满意的概念
“满意”是一个心理学术语,是指人的一种肯定性的心理状态。这种状态是由于外界的某种刺激使人的某种需求或期望得到满足及“合意”(即符合人的本意),从而使人感到某种“快意”(即心理上的愉悦)。满意的前提是外界的这种刺激,包括物质、精神及二者结合的刺激。因此,市场营销学大师菲利普•科特勒(Philip Kotler)给客户满意下了一个定义:“客户满意是指一个人通过对一个产品的可感知的效果(或结果)与他的期望值相比较后形成的感觉状态,是可感知的效果和期望值之间的差异函数。”
客户满意与否是一种心理评价的过程,它具有以下特征:
主观性。客户满意与否并不是由企业的产品和服务水平所唯一决定的。它在很大程度上受客户主观因素的影响。客户的需求、期望、性格、好恶、情绪、经济地位、教育程度等因素对客户的满意程度都有着重要影响。
不稳定性。客户满意与否不是一成不变的,而是随着社会经济和文化的发展及个人消费水平、鉴赏能力的提高而不断变化。昨天令客户十分满意的产品,在明天可能成为客户抱怨的对象。所以,企业不能沉醉于现有的较高的客户满意度水平,应该居安思危,不断地改进产品和服务,持续地提高客户满意度,这样才能在竞争中占据并保持不败之地。
多层次性。客户满意是客户对企业提供的产品和服务的心理评价,这种评价是多层次的而不是单一指标的。客户满意从横向上包括理念满意、行为满意、视听满意、产品满意和服务满意;从纵向上包括物质层满意、精神层满意和社会层满意等三个逐渐递进的层次。因此,实施客户满意战略应该注意到各个层面,努力实现客户的全面满意。
客户满意的构成要素
由于“客户满意学”刚刚兴起不久,而且东西方文化存在着明显的差异。因此,有关客户满意构成要素的理论,学术界还没有形成一致的看法。日本产能大学的持本志行教授提出了客户满意的构成要素。持本志行提出的构成要素是从实体项目进行分析,有所侧重也就有所忽略,但总体上不失为一种优秀的分析方法。本文借鉴这种方法,对房地产客户满意构成要素做出分析(如图1所示)。
与房地产有关的项目。包括房价,楼盘的评价绩点。楼盘的评价绩点包括户型、装修、地段、规划设计、物业管理等因素。这些内容是房地产品固有的品质特性。它们构成了房地产品的核心质量,是影响客户满意的首要因素。
与印象有关的项目。包括客户对房地产开发企业经营状况的评价,对房地产品的评价,对企业形象的评价。客户根据宣传媒体、亲友同事了解到的信息,再结合自己与房地产开发企业接触的亲身体验,会对房地产开发企业做出评价,形成一种印象。这种印象的好坏,一方面受到客户主观因素的影响,例如,由于每个客户的需求和偏好不同,他们会对同一企业的房地产品做出不同的评价;另一方面,还受到客户接触到的外界信息的客观性、全面性的影响,虚假的、片面的外界信息会使客户对房地产开发企业做出不正确的评价。
与服务有关的项目。这里主要是指在营销和销售过程(从客户同房地产开发企业第一次接触,到签订认购合同)、房产的使用过程中,企业对客户提供的服务以及为增进客户关系所设计的各项活动。
客户满意的意义
满意的客户通过持续的重复购买、新客户的推荐,能够给企业带来收益。这是众多企业追求客户满意的原因。对于房地产开发企业来说,客户满意的意义也在这两个方面得以体现。如图2所示,客户从购买到满意,再从满意到忠诚,最后向自己的亲朋好友传播口碑,这个过程会给房地产开发企业带来丰厚的利润。
重复购买的产生。对于购房客户来说,很多客户已经开始二次置业,甚至三次置业,房地产开发企业完全有机会再次向他们推销房产。对于租赁客户而言,他们购买的是房地产在一定时期内的使用权。房地产的使用权这种商品的购买和消费是一个持续的过程,客户与房地产开发企业之间存在一种长期的契约关系。获得客户的满意就意味着这种契约关系的延续,也可以说是重复购买的发生。企业因此而获得收益。
客户推荐的产生。不管客户是否有二次置业的可能,房地产开发企业都可以从他们身上发掘销售机会。因为房地产的价值巨大,对客户来说购买的风险比较大,在购买之前他们会进行多方面的咨询和多次选择,而朋友或同事的购买经历则是一个重要的参考信息。所以说,一个满意的客户会起到很好的宣传效果,他们对周围的人的影响作用远比广告、售楼书、样板房要大,并且不需要花钱。
此外,由于不满的客户会向熟人述说他们的购买经历,因而给企业带来负面的影响。这种现象在房地产业中的影响作用要大于其它行业:一旦有一位客户不满,企业失去的不仅是他一个人,而有可能是这个客户周围的所有人。因此,房地产开发企业的客户满意是十分重要的。
客户满意增长模型
实施客户关系管理的房地产开发企业实质上是进行了一项重要变革——增加了为企业提供在以降低客户不满和增加客户满意为目的而进行的客户满意度测量活动中所得的信息的流程,从而构建起客户满意增长的模型,如图3所示。为了使客户满意度增加,企业应该首先收集到关于客户需求、期望和习惯的信息。这些信息来源有:市场分析的结果;通过对客户进行调查、与客户会谈以及对特定客户群体的关注而了解到的客户的需求和令客户满意的信息;来自于服务失败报告或客户抱怨整理资料的客户不满意信息。其次,应该根据这些信息开发房地产品,这一点可以借助质量功能展开(Quality Function Deployment,QFD)来实现。第三,应该对客户抱怨和服务失败报告中的问题提出解决方案,改进产品和服务。

Marketing is an integrated communications-based process through which individuals and communities discover that existing and newly-identified needs and wants may be satisfied by the products and services of others.
Marketing is defined by the American Marketing Association as the activity, set of institutions, and processes for creating, communicating, delivering, and exchanging offerings that have value for customers, clients, partners, and society at large. [1] The term developed from the original meaning which referred literally to going to market, as in shopping, or going to a market to buy or sell goods or services.
Marketing practice tends to be seen as a creative industry, which includes advertising, distribution and selling. It is also concerned with anticipating the customers' future needs and wants, which are often discovered through market research. Seen from a systems point of view, sales process engineering views marketing as a set of processes that are interconnected and interdependent with other functions[2], whose methods can be improved using a variety of relatively new approaches.
Marketing is influenced by many of the social sciences, particularly psychology, sociology, and economics. Anthropology and neuroscience are also small but growing influences. Market research underpins these activities. Through advertising, it is also related to many of the creative arts. The marketing literature is also infamous for re-inventing itself and its vocabulary according to the times and the culture.

[edit] Four Ps
Main article: Marketing mix
In the early 1960s, Professor Neil Borden at Harvard Business School identified a number of company performance actions that can influence the consumer decision to purchase goods or services. Borden suggested that all those actions of the company represented a “Marketing Mix”. Professor E. Jerome McCarthy, also at the Harvard Business School in the early 1960s, suggested that the Marketing Mix contained 4 elements: product, price, place and promotion.
Product: The product aspects of marketing deal with the specifications of the actual goods or services, and how it relates to the end-user's needs and wants. The scope of a product generally includes supporting elements such as warranties, guarantees, and support.
Pricing: This refers to the process of setting a price for a product, including discounts. The price need not be monetary; it can simply be what is exchanged for the product or services, e.g. time, energy, or attention. Methods of setting prices optimally are in the domain of pricing science.
Placement (or distribution): refers to how the product gets to the customer; for example, point-of-sale placement or retailing. This third P has also sometimes been called Place, referring to the channel by which a product or service is sold (e.g. online vs. retail), which geographic region or industry, to which segment (young adults, families, business people), etc. also referring to how the environment in which the product is sold in can affect sales.
Promotion: This includes advertising, sales promotion, publicity, and personal selling. Branding refers to the various methods of promoting the product, brand, or company.
These four elements are often referred to as the marketing mix,[3] which a marketer can use to craft a marketing plan.
The four Ps model is most useful when marketing low value consumer products. Industrial products, services, high value consumer products require adjustments to this model. Services marketing must account for the unique nature of services.
Industrial or B2B marketing must account for the long term contractual agreements that are typical in supply chain transactions. Relationship marketing attempts to do this by looking at marketing from a long term relationship perspective rather than individual transactions.
As a counter to this, Morgan, in Riding the Waves of Change (Jossey-Bass, 1988), suggests that one of the greatest limitations of the 4 Ps approach "is that it unconsciously emphasizes the inside–out view (looking from the company outwards), whereas the essence of marketing should be the outside–in approach".

Main article: Brand
A brand is a name, term, design, symbol, or other feature that distinguishes products and services from competitive offerings. A brand represents the consumers' experience with an organization, product, or service. A brand is more than a name, design or symbol. Brand reflects personality of the company which is organizational culture.
A brand has also been defined as an identifiable entity that makes a specific value based on promises made and kept either actively or passively.
Branding means creating reference of certain products in mind.
Co-branding involves marketing activity involving two or more products.

[edit] Customer focus
Many companies today have a customer focus (or market orientation). This implies that the company focuses its activities and products on consumer demands. Generally there are three ways of doing this: the customer-driven approach, the sense of identifying market changes and the product innovation approach.
In the consumer-driven approach, consumer wants are the drivers of all strategic marketing decisions. No strategy is pursued until it passes the test of consumer research. Every aspect of a market offering, including the nature of the product itself, is driven by the needs of potential consumers. The starting point is always the consumer. The rationale for this approach is that there is no point spending R&D funds developing products that people will not buy. History attests to many products that were commercial failures in spite of being technological breakthroughs.[4]
A formal approach to this customer-focused marketing is known as SIVA[5] (Solution, Information, Value, Access). This system is basically the four Ps renamed and reworded to provide a customer focus.
The SIVA Model provides a demand/customer centric version alternative to the well-known 4Ps supply side model (product, price, place, promotion) of marketing management.
Product → Solution
Promotion → Information
Price → Value
Placement → Access
The four elements of the SIVA model are:
Solution: How appropriate is the solution to the customer's problem/need?
Information: Does the customer know about the solution? If so, how and from whom do they know enough to let them make a buying decision?
Value: Does the customer know the value of the transaction, what it will cost, what are the benefits, what might they have to sacrifice, what will be their reward?
Access: Where can the customer find the solution? How easily/locally/remotely can they buy it and take delivery?
This model was proposed by Chekitan Dev and Don Schultz in the Marketing Management Journal of the American Marketing Association, and presented by them in Market Leader, the journal of the Marketing Society in the UK.
[edit] Product focus
In a product innovation approach, the company pursues product innovation, then tries to develop a market for the product. Product innovation drives the process and marketing research is conducted primarily to ensure that profitable market segment(s) exist for the innovation. The rationale is that customers may not know what options will be available to them in the future so we should not expect them to tell us what they will buy in the future. However, marketers can aggressively over-pursue product innovation and try to overcapitalize on a niche. When pursuing a product innovation approach, marketers must ensure that they have a varied and multi-tiered approach to product innovation. It is claimed that if Thomas Edison depended on marketing research he would have produced larger candles rather than inventing light bulbs. Many firms, such as research and development focused companies, successfully focus on product innovation. Many purists doubt whether this is really a form of marketing orientation at all, because of the ex post status of consumer research. Some even question whether it is marketing.
An emerging area of study and practice concerns internal marketing, or how employees are trained and managed to deliver the brand in a way that positively impacts the acquisition and retention of customers (employer branding).
Diffusion of innovations research explores how and why people adopt new products, services and ideas.
A relatively new form of marketing uses the Internet and is called Internet marketing or more generally e-marketing, affiliate marketing, desktop advertising or online marketing. It tries to perfect the segmentation strategy used in traditional marketing. It targets its audience more precisely, and is sometimes called personalized marketing or one-to-one marketing.
With consumers' eroding attention span and willingness to give time to advertising messages, marketers are turning to forms of permission marketing such as branded content, custom media and reality marketing.
The use of herd behavior in marketing.
The Economist reported a recent conference in Rome on the subject of the simulation of adaptive human behavior.[6] It shared mechanisms to increase impulse buying and get people "to buy more by playing on the herd instinct." The basic idea is that people will buy more of products that are seen to be popular, and several feedback mechanisms to get product popularity information to consumers are mentioned, including smart-cart technology and the use of Radio Frequency Identification Tag technology. A "swarm-moves" model was introduced by a Princeton researcher, which is appealing to supermarkets because it can "increase sales without the need to give people discounts." Large retailers Wal-Mart in the United States and Tesco in Britain plan to test the technology in spring 2007 .
Marketing is also used to promote business' products and is a great way to promote the business.
Other recent studies on the "power of social influence" include an "artificial music market in which some 14,000 people downloaded previously unknown songs" (Columbia University, New York); a Japanese chain of convenience stores which orders its products based on "sales data from department stores and research companies;" a Massachusetts company exploiting knowledge of social networking to improve sales; and online retailers who are increasingly informing consumers about "which products are popular with like-minded consumers" (e.g., Amazon, eBay).
Marketing is defined by the American Marketing Association as the activity, set of institutions, and processes for creating, communicating, delivering, and exchanging offerings that have value for customers, clients, partners, and society at large. [1] The term developed from the original meaning which referred literally to going to market, as in shopping, or going to a market to buy or sell goods or services.
Marketing practice tends to be seen as a creative industry, which includes advertising, distribution and selling.

Value: Does the customer know the value of the transaction, what it will cost, what are the benefits, what might they have to sacrifice, what will be their reward?
Access: Where can the customer find the solution? How easily/locally/remotely can they buy it and take delivery?
This model was proposed by Chekitan Dev and Don Schultz in the Marketing Management Journal of the American Marketing Association, and presented by them in Market Leader, the journal of the Marketing Society in the UK.
[edit] Product focus
In a product innovation approach, the company pursues product innovation, then tries to develop a market for the product. Product innovation drives the process and marketing research is conducted primarily to ensure that profitable market segment(s) exist for the innovation. The rationale is that customers may not know what options will be available to them in the future so we should not expect them to tell us what they will buy in the future. However, marketers can aggressively over-pursue product innovation and try to overcapitalize on a niche. When pursuing a product innovation approach, marketers must ensure that they have a varied and multi-tiered approach to product innovation. It is claimed that if Thomas Edison depended on marketing research he would have produced larger candles rather than inventing light bulbs. Many firms, such as research and development focused companies, successfully focus on product innovation. Many purists doubt whether this is really a form of marketing orientation at all, because of the ex post status of consumer research. Some even question whether it is marketing.
An emerging area of study and practice concerns internal marketing, or how employees are trained and managed to deliver the brand in a way that positively impacts the acquisition and retention of customers (employer branding).
Diffusion of innovations research explores how and why people adopt new products, services and ideas.
A relatively new form of marketing uses the Internet and is called Internet marketing or more generally e-marketing, affiliate marketing, desktop advertising or online marketing. It tries to perfect the segmentation strategy used in traditional marketing. It targets its audience more precisely, and is sometimes called personalized marketing or one-to-one marketing.
With consumers' eroding attention span and willingness to give time to advertising messages, marketers are turning to forms of permission marketing such as branded content, custom media and reality marketing.
The use of herd behavior in marketing.
The Economist reported a recent conference in Rome on the subject of the simulation of adaptive human behavior.[6] It shared mechanisms to increase impulse buying and get people "to buy more by playing on the herd instinct." The basic idea is that people will buy more of products that are seen to be popular, and several feedback mechanisms to get product popularity information to consumers are mentioned, including smart-cart technology and the use of Radio Frequency Identification Tag technology. A "swarm-moves" model was introduced by a Princeton researcher, which is appealing to supermarkets because it can "increase sales without the need to give people discounts." Large retailers Wal-Mart in the United States and Tesco in Britain plan to test the technology in spring 2007 .
Marketing is also used to promote business' products and is a great way to promote the business.
Other recent studies on the "power of social influence" include an "artificial music market in which some 14,000 people downloaded previously unknown songs" (Columbia University, New York); a Japanese chain of convenience stores which orders its products based on "sales data from department stores and research companies;" a Massachusetts company exploiting knowledge of social networking to improve sales; and online retailers who are increasingly informing consumers about "which products are popular with like-minded consumers" (e.g., Amazon, eBay).
