Our desire to create a genuinely customer-centric organisation shapes the way in which we think about the culture of our business, the values by which we work and the services we provide to everyone who holidays with us. It continues to act as a powerful catalyst for change and we believe it is where we have the biggest opportunity to differentiate ourselves from the competition. We know that happy customers are more likely to come back to Thomas Cook and to recommend us to their friends. As customer loyalty increases, our cost of sale goes down as customers choose Thomas Cook because of our reputation rather than our marketing. We also know that on average customers that return to Thomas Cook spend more with us than new customers, reflecting their increased trust in our holiday offering. We see the tangible value our customer focus creates across the business, shown most clearly in how customers are willing to pay more for a hotel following improvements in its quality performance; generating better returns for the business. Operationally, we focus our Customer at our Heart strategy in two areas: the care and reassurance we provide to our customers, set out in our three Customer Promises of Quality, Service and Reliability; and the contact we maintain with customers, ensuring that we are accessible however they choose to interact with us and forming long-lasting relationships throughout the year. 2 Thomas Cook Group plc Annual Report and Accounts 2018 3 Thomas Cook Group plc Annual Report and Accounts 2018 OUR CULTURE MAKES US DIFFERENT. In 2016, we launched our three Customer Promises: Quality, Service, Reliability. These promises shape everything we do as a business.
