3. Introduction
Introduction
Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
is simply the nurturing of customer
relationships utilizing technology, customer
interactions, and analytical data throughout
the customer lifecycle. (WhatIs.com, 2017)
When we add social media to the mix of
customer relationship management we are
simply shifting our attention from the more
traditional forms, email, newsletters, and
website landing pages, to encompass the
new hangout of customers, social media.

8. Social media networks to enlist
How to Connect
Given the huge user base of Facebook, it’s
obviously the number one contender. But,
depending on what you want to do and how you
want to communicate your message, Twitter,
Instagram, Google +, as well as live
broadcasting platforms like YouTube, and
Periscope, are excellent tools as well.
Usage
• Facebook Pages or Groups
• Twitter with specific hashtags
• Instagram, posting images, and videos
• Google + Calendars and Groups

9. What platform should I use?
What platform should I use?
Depending on what your goals are, the social
media platform that you use to nurture your
connections is not always going to be the most
popular platform out there. You use the tool
that best suits your needs.
If you want to extend office hours, generate
conversation, share a video to explain a
technique or problem in more detail, you can
do all of this almost immediately with anyone
of these applications organically.
Social CRM connects ideas and knowledge.
Use the platform that suits your needs -
10. What do they have to offer?
What are your needs?
Many organizations use social media
for customer service and support.
To spite their differences
Even though they may all seem the
same they serve very different
purposes.
Twitter, for instance has less users
than Facebook but it has more
influence with users, because of its
simplicity.

13. Gauging Engagement
Gauging Engagement
Looking at effective content -
The main reason that data is so
important when looking at
engagements is because it tells
you what kind of activity is getting
the most response on your posts,
comments, shares, and likes.
Facebook Pages, Twitter, and
Google + give you this information
for free and easily. Instagram, and
Facebook Groups make it a bit
more difficult but you can get that
information as well.
