customer relationship management

CRM, or Customer Relationship Management, is a company-wide business strategy designed to reduce costs and increase profitability by solidifying customer loyalty.

True CRM brings together information from all data sources within an organization, and where appropriate, from outside the organization, to give one, holistic view of each customer in real time. This allows customer facing employees in such areas as sales, customer support, and marketing to make quick yet informed decisions on everything from cross-selling and up selling opportunities to target marketing strategies to competitive positioning tactics, as it’s well known that buying patterns are showing a clear shift away from sales and marketing applications in favor of service- based software.
