Overview of the 3S Maturity Model and its relevance to business success
Lesson Summary
Businesses often struggle to find the right balance between attracting new customers, keeping current ones satisfied, and providing exceptional support. This challenge led to the creation of the 3S methodology, which focuses on customer-centricity to meet client needs effectively.
- Sales: Concentrates on gaining and expanding the customer base.
- Success: Ensures customers derive maximum value from their interactions with the business.
- Support: Anticipates and responds to customer needs reactively and proactively.
By incorporating these principles into the business strategy, a solid foundation for long-term customer satisfaction and loyalty can be established. The methodology utilizes numeric evaluation, akin to a diagnostic test, to measure performance in key areas and drive continuous improvement over time.
This data-driven approach enables businesses to make informed decisions and adjustments, optimizing customer relationships for success in the long run. Embracing the 3S methodology empowers businesses to elevate their operations, ensuring sustained growth and success by focusing on essential measures that make a difference.

The 3S program is designed to run against your business as a leading measure to success. You start in a given state, apply education, execution, and delegation to those strategies, and undoubtedly improve against your baseline,
Seeing the 3S evaluation rise, and the business measurable items follow is a key factor of pivoting from leading to lagging measures; the ones which really matter - generating cash and loyalty as a result of your efforts.
