Why CRM? • Companies must spend far more money to get a new customer than to retain an existing customer. • It is far more expensive to win back a customer after they left than it is to keep them satisfied in the first place. • It is far easier to sell a new product to an existing customer than it is to a new customer. • Some customers are vastly more profitable than other customers. Some customers are unprofitable, and some customers are unprofitable and will never be profitable. Find the most profitable customer!

Conclusion An integrated Perspective of ECRM
Definitions of CRM • CRM is a combination of business process and technology that seeks to understand a company’s customers from the perspective of who they are, what they do, and what they’re like. (Couldwell ,1998) • CRM is founded on four relationship-based tenets: (Kutner & Cripps, 1997) • Customers should be managed as important assets. • Customer profitability varies; not all customers are equally desirable. • Customers vary in their needs, preferences, buying behaviour and price sensitivity. • By understanding customer drivers and customer profitability, companies can tailor their offerings to maximise the overall value of their customer portfolio.
Definitions of CRM • Relationship marketing (Merlin Stone et al., 1996) • The use of a wide range of marketing, sales, communication, sevice and customer care approaches to: • Identify a company’s named individual customers; • Create a relationship between the company and its customers that stretches over many transactions; • Manage that relationships to the benefit of the customers and the company.
Key Characteristics of CRM (Lynette Ryals & Simon Knox, 2001) • A customer relationship perspective aimed at the long-term retention of selected customers. • Gathering and integrating information on customers. • Use of dedicated software to analyse this information (often in real time). • Segmentation by expected customer lifetime value. • Micro-segmentation of markets according to customers’ needs and wants. • Customer value creation through process management (Hammer & Champy, 1993; Hamel & Prahalad,1994) • Customer value delivery through service tailored to micro-segments, facilitated by detailed, integrated customer profiles. • A shift in emphasis from managing product protfolios to managing portfolios of customers, necessitating changes to working practices and sometimes to organisational structure.
