13. Implementation of CRM
It doesn't happen by simply buying software and installing it. For CRM to
be truly effective, an organization must first understand who its customers are and
what their value is over a lifetime. The company must then determine what the
needs of its customers are and how best to meet those needs. For example, many
financial institutions keep track of customers' life stages in order to market
appropriate banking products like mortgages or IRAs to them at the right time to fit
their needs.
Next, the organization must look into all of the different ways information
about customers comes into a business, where and how this data is stored and how
it is currently used. One company, for instance, may interact with customers in a
myriad of different ways including mail campaigns, Web sites, brick-and-mortar
stores, call centers, mobile sales force staff and marketing and advertising efforts.
CRM systems link up each of these points. This collected data flows between
operational systems (like sales and inventory systems) and analytical systems that
can help sort through these records for patterns. Company analysts can then comb
through the data to obtain a holistic view of each customer and pinpoint areas where
better services are needed. For example, if someone has a mortgage, a business
loan, an IRA and a large commercial checking account with one bank, it behooves
13
the bank to treat this person well each time it has any contact with him or her.
14. Keys to Successful CRM Implementation
• Develop your customer-focused strategy first before considering what
kind of technology you need.
• Break your CRM project down into manageable pieces by setting up
pilot programs and short-term milestones. Start with a pilot project that
incorporates all the necessary departments but is small enough and
flexible enough to allow tinkering along the way.
• Make sure your CRM plans include a scalable architecture framework.
Think carefully about what is best for your enterprise: a solution that
ties together “best of breed” software from several vendors via Web
Services or an integrated package of software from one vendor.
• Don't underestimate how much data you might collect (there will be
LOTS) and make sure that if you need to expand systems you'll be
able to.
• Be thoughtful about what data is collected and stored. The impulse will
be to grab and then store EVERY piece of data you can, but there is
often no reason to store data. Storing useless data wastes time and
14
money.
15. Causes of CRM Failure
Many things. From the beginning, lack of a communication
between everyone in the customer relationship chain can lead to an
incomplete picture of the customer.
Poor communication can lead to technology being implemented without
proper support or buy-in from users. For example, if the sales force isn't
completely sold on the system's benefits, they may not input the kind of
demographic data that is essential to the program's success.
One Fortune 500 company is on its fourth try at a CRM implementation,
because it did not do a good job at getting buy-in from its sale force
beforehand and then training sales staff once the software was available.
