Ralph Houston sees research as a critical contributor to the business success of professional service firms in 2 ways:
  1. It is important that the most up-to-date findings on client satisfaction from all business sectors are reviewed and analysed for their likely significance to the world of professional service. Ralph Houston does this.
  2. For many professional service firms marketing and client satisfaction research is a confusing and unproductive arena.  However, it is clear that some new entrants to legal, consulting and advisory service markets are significant players who earned their strong reputations in openly aggressive sectors where market and customer knowledge has always been deemed paramount. The need for all professional service entities to adopt  similar disciplines will be essential and Ralph Houston helps professional service organisations structure their approach to building  research activities that :
    • keep existing clients loyal to their firm;
    • focus on profitable services instead of wasting resources elsewhere;
    • identify new business opportunities.
