I am working with the Engineering Services market (Europe & Middle East). We have been providing order based services to clients. But we have realised that it is important for our sales team to develop and nurture accounts who will be looking for a long term partnership rather than a one-off service provider.
Now the problem is: In the category of services we provide, the whole industry is in an order-service-pay and forget relationship. So we want to pioneer the idea of a long term marriage with the client for obvious reasons like security. But I am not able to find a reason why the client would want it. Could someone direct me on the ways to understand why the client would need such a partnership rather than a one-off business as and when he gets his project which is far less commitment than the new method?
