How does determining your core value increase your ROI?

Gallup’s 2016 analysis found that countless B2B and B2C companies say they have a customer-centric culture. But Gallup finds few do. In fact, B2B companies are at risk of losing more than two-thirds of their customers, only 29% of B2B customers are fully engaged — that is, emotionally and psychologically attached to the companies they do business with. The other 71% of customers are ready and willing to take their business elsewhere. It is no longer enough for companies to view the world from their vantage point.
