Customer Relationship Management

CRM

Customer Relationship Management (CRM) is the most important element of your Sales and Marketing strategy: you can have the best product or service in the world, but if you don’t know and understand your customers and their needs, then it’s all for nothing. But all too often CRM is misunderstood; thought of as just a piece of software which is badly implemented and maintained and fails to be used effectively. “70% fail” is an oft-reported statistic for CRM programme implementations.

Implementing or migrating to a new CRM system is expensive and time consuming. CRM packagess are not just for the big companies: they can be as, or even more important, for SMEs with limited resources and sales/ marketing teams. Don’t think you can’t afford a CRM system – just make sure you’re investing in the right one. Don’t think CRM is just about the software: that’s just one element: you can have the most sophisticated, all-singing all-dancing platform in the world, but if you don’t have a strategy and a culture that understands its importance, then it won’t work.
