CRM Sales Tool
Customer Relationship Management (CRM) is a widely-implemented
strategy for managing a company’s interactions with customers, clients
and sales prospects. It involves using technology to organize, automate,
and synchronize business processes—principally sales activities, but also
those for marketing, customer service, and technical support. The overall
goals are to find, attract, and win new clients, nurture and retain those the
company already has, entice former clients back into the fold, and reduce
the costs of marketing and client service. Customer relationship
management describes a company-wide business strategy including
customer-interface departments as well as other departments.
