Customers Relationship Management(CRM)
Customer relationship management (CRM) is a model for managing a company’s interactions with current and future
customers. It involves using technology to organize, automate, and synchronize sales, marketing, customer service,
and technical support
For example, an enterprise might build a database about its customers that described relationships in sufficient
detail so that management, salespeople, people providing service, and perhaps the customer directly could access
information, match customer needs with product plans and offerings, remind customers of service requirements,
know what other products a customer had purchased, and so forth.
CRM Features:

manage marketing campaigns and generate quality leads for the sales team.

Assisting the organization to improve telesales, account, and sales management by optimizing information
shared by multiple employees, and streamlining existing processes (for example, taking orders using
mobile devices)

satisfaction and maximizing profits; identifying the most profitable customers and providing them the
highest level of service.

distribution partners.
