choice, the issue of retaining customers is one that organisations take
very seriously. After all, what makes or breaks any organisation are the
paying customers. To retain these customers, organisations are turning
CRM tools and technologies to help them serve customers better, and in
the process increase their brand's value.
CRM vendors will have varying definitions of what CRM constitutes
but, beneath all the jargon, there is a simple and fundamental theme
that organisations should be able to recognise.
According to Amita Krishna, managing director of KrisTEL Customer
Interaction, CRM is basically a business philosophy that organisations
practise to deliver customer satisfaction in such a consistent manner
that a company's profitability will be realised or increased. |
