products and brands.
 It uses supply chain and human resources to sell its products.

programs.

software to companies.
 The benefits of CRM software are quicker, better quality, and timely services to
the customers.
Definitions of CustomerRelationship Management
 Berry defines CRM as “attracting, maintaining and in multi-service organizations
enhancing customer relationships.”
 Berry and Parasuraman define CRM as “attracting, developing and retaining
customer relationships.”
 In industrial marketing, Jackson defines CRM as “marketing oriented toward
strong, lasting relationships with individual accounts.”
 From the above definitions, it is concluded that Customer Relationship
Management refers to all marketing activities directed towards establishing,
developing, and sustaining long lasting, trusting, win-win, beneficial and
successful relational exchanges between the organization and its stakeholders.
 CRM is not a new concept but a very old
practice, which has grown because of the
benefits it offers in the present marketing
scenario.
 CRM today is a discipline and also a set of
software and technology which automates and
improves the business process associated with
managing customer relationships in the area of
sales, marketing, customer service and support.
 CRM helps companies understand, start and
develop long-term relationships with clients as
well as help in retaining current customers.
Customer Development Process
1. Suspect: Suspect is everyone who might conceivably buy the product or
service.
2. Prospects: Prospects are those people who have a strong potential interest
in the product and the ability to pay for it. The company rejects the
disqualified prospects because they have poor credit or would be
unprofitable.
3. First time customers: The company wants to convert the qualified prospects
into first time customers.
4. Repeat customers: The company wants to convert satisfied first time
customers into repeat customers. First time and repeat customers may also
buy from the competitors.
5. Clients: The company then tries to convert repeat customers into clients.
Clients are those people who buy only from the company.
6. Advocates: The next step is to convert the
clients into advocates. Advocates are those
people who speak good about the company and
encourage others to buy from it.
7. Partners: The ultimate goal of the company is
to convert advocates into partners. After
reaching this stage, the customer and the
company work actively together.
Some customers may become inactive or may drop
out due to many reasons leading to end of the
relationship. The challenge is to re-activate
dissatisfied customers through customer win
back strategies
Significance of Customer Relationship
Management
 Reduction in customer recruitment cost.
 Generation of more and more loyal customers.
 Expansion of customer base.
 Reduction in advertisement and other sales promotion expenses.
 Increase in the number of profitable customers.
 Easy introduction of new products.
 Easy business expansion possibilities.
 Increase in customer partnering.
