CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP MANAGEMENT
 CRM is a cross-functional core business
process concerned with achieving
improved shareholder value through the
development of effective relationships
with key customers and customer
segments. CRM Recognizes That
Customers:
 Vary in their economic value
to the company
 Differ in their expectations
toward the firm

5. 4-5
CUSTOMER LIFETIME VALUE
Customer lifetime value (CLV) calculates past profit
produced by the customer for the firm – the sum
of all the margins of all the products purchased
over time, less the cost of reaching that customer
 To this is added a forecast of margins on
future purchases (under different assumptions
for different customers), discounted back to
their present value.
 This process provides an estimate of the
profitability of a customer during the time
span of the relationship.
 The CLV calculation is a powerful tool for
focusing marketing and promotional efforts
where they will be most productive.

METRICS
FEATURE How General Electric Co. Measures Customers’
Experience
Happy (And Not-So-Happy) Customers
General Electric is a big user of the “Net Promoter” concept of customer
satisfaction, popularized by Fred Reichheld of Bain & Co. Below, questions
similar to those on which GE’s Capital Solutions unit asks customers to rate the
unit’s performance on a 0 – 10 scale.
• How willing are you to recommend us to a friend or
associate?
• How would you rate our ability to meet your needs?
• How would you rate our people?
• How would you rate our processes?
• What is your impression of our market reputation?
• How would you rate the cost of doing business with us?
• How would you rate the overall value of our product or
service as being worth what you paid?

CRM AND VALUE CHAIN STRATEGY
The Perfect Customer Experience
“The perfect customer experience, which must be affordable for the
company in the context of the segments in which it operates and its
competition, is a relatively new concept. This concept is now being
embraced in industry by companies such as TNT, Toyota’s Lexus, Oce,
and Guinness Breweries, but it has yet to receive much attention in
the academic literature. Therefore, multi-channel integration is a
critical process in CRM because it represents the point of co-creation
of customer value. However, a company’s ability to execute multi-
channel integration successfully is heavily dependent on the
organization’s ability to gather and deploy customer information, from
all channels and to integrate it with other relevant information.”

From the perspective of strategic marketing, there are several
reasons why CRM is important and why there should be extensive
marketing involvement in decisions about CRM. Importantly, an
organizational perspective is needed in guiding the CRM strategy.
