  6. Now let us start looking into the term “Social Customer Relationship Management” in view of the changes observed into the CRM landscape caused by the emergence of Web 2.0. The term “Social Relationship Management”: • Often referred to Social Relationship Management • Reflects the addition of a social angle in traditional CRM • May also be called CRM 2.0 • Reflects an extended CRM landscape that has more connections, channels, and its complexity www.semaphore-software.com

  7. Let’s now see how the definitions of “Social Customer Relationship Management” go and in a way will try to know what SCRM is all about? www.semaphore-software.com

  8. Definition of Social CRM given by Paul Greenberg, “A philosophy and a business strategy, supported by a technology platform, business rules, workflow, process, and social characteristics, designed to engage the customer in a collaborative conversation in order to provide mutually beneficial value in a trusted and transparent business environment. Social CRM is the company’s response to the customer’s ownership of the conversation.” • Another definition of Social CRM: It is a business function supported by a system and technologies whose aims are to improve a company’s ability to derive insights into customer needs and behaviors by connecting their transaction data with the lifestyle data they share online. • Another way of defining Social CRM resembling above one: Social CRM is a business function supported by a system and technologies whose aims are to improve a company’s ability to derive insights into customer needs and behaviors by adding to their transaction data the lifestyle data they share online. • A simpler definition of SCRM: SCRM involves the activity of building, maintaining, strengthening and broadening personal-business relationship with relevant people. www.semaphore-software.com

  9. Having learnt the reasons that created need for the SCRM we can now look into how actually Social CRM may impact an organization: • Social CRM does not replace the CRM 1.0 (traditional CRM) in any organization instead it enhances its scope and extends capabilities of CRM 1.0. • Social CRM projects the company in a more humanized way and thus changing the perception of the customer to see the company as peer and thereby enhancing trust element. • Social CRM prompts companies in making strategies that are customer centric. • Social CRM enables the evolution of organizational mindset and it affects its entire operations, its value chain and its organizational structure. • Social CRM enhances possibilities in an organization of bringing innovation from all the employees rather than bringing it from an internal specialized core group only. This leads to a customer-centric innovation cycle as all the employees are connected closely with customers via web 2.0. www.semaphore-software.com
