David Brandi: Drive Your Business Success with ValueAdded Account Management According to Brandi & Co's David Brandi, good relationships are the backbone of a successful business. On the other hand, maintaining and cultivating connections is easier said than done, especially in the business world, where customer competition is tough and loyalty is hard to come by. So, how do you plan to compete? On the other hand, account management is regarded as critical by David Brandi.
Account management is a post-sales role that focuses on client relationship development. Account managers have two key goals: to retain clients' business and grow those opportunities. They accomplish these objectives through learning about their clients' objectives and aiding them in accomplishing them. Unlike a traditional sales function focused on obtaining the customer, David Brandi sees account managers as long-term liaisons and, ideally, valued advisors for the client. In other words, sales are transactional, whereas account management is relational. According to David Brandi, Account managers help answer their clients' inquiries, address their issues (preferably with a specialized product or service solutions), and establish a long-term strategic connection with the client beyond the first sale by understanding their clients' needs. The account manager is responsible for increasing the original business alliance through up-sells and cross-sells, among other things. David Brandi believes that managers can keep long-term business through contract renewals by managing client relationships with sales or customer support and guaranteeing client pleasure. In a nutshell, account management's job is to satisfy the customer.
According to David Brandi, account management is divided into the account manager and account executive. Both responsibilities are critical for any business or organization. However, the definitions and scope of each role will range from one organization to the next. (In some instances, the two roles may overlap or be done by the same person.) According to David Brandi, the overlap is caused by a lack of uniformity of job titles and disparities in structure, and shifting needs from one organization or industry to the next
