Customer Relationship Management as a business strategy is about ensuring that
your customers have a consistent positive experience every time they interact
with your business. This will enhance the prospect of them doing more business
with you. To do this effectively, you need to ensure that the right information
is available at all points where the customer is likely to interact with you,
at all times.
Modern technology has made available many tools to
assist organisations with the analysis, deployment and
capturing of information at all points of customer interaction.
These tools come in many sizes and prices, and the challenge
is to ensure that the technology you select is right
for you. Why pay for more than you need? What is the
minimum level of functional fit that you need to support
your business strategy? Your business is unique - make
sure you consciously identify the strengths and weaknesses
of the technology solutions and consider the implications.
