CRM- A Must- have for every organization
Organizations are continually striving to become successful, and many have discovered that the secret lies in how well they manage their customers. This is where Customer Relationship Management (CRM) comes in.
With CRM, you can bring together an organization’s customers, service users, colleagues and suppliers, and coordinate their work to improve performance and increase profit.
The mention of CRM could easily mean three things:
- A Process
- A Strategy
- Technology tool
But what exactly is CRM?
CRM is a strategy that relies on technology to help understand customers’ needs and behaviour, thereby developing stronger relationships with them.
CRM as a Strategy
CRM can be defined as an approach that organizations incorporate to streamline their interactions, improve customer service and grow their bottom line.
CRM as a Tool
That CRM uses technology also means that it can be defined as a tool used to manage interactions, sales, productivity and other functions. When used as a product, you can rely on CRM to record, analyze and report interactions between an organization and its users. CRM can, therefore, also be referred to as a system or solution.
CRM as a process
CRM can also be described as a procedure or system that an organization undertakes to manage interactions and nurture built relationships.
Who should use CRM?
Every successful organization understands the importance of CRM. It rides on one primary goal, to improve business relationships and, in turn, increase customer loyalty and retention. CRM also helps to:
- Streamline processes
- Increase sales
- Improve customer service
- Increase profitability.
So, if you’re looking to improve your organization’s relationship and become more successful, this is the place to start.
