Delivering CRM platform
15March 2010 |
A tremendous amount has changed in the enterprise applications market over the last10 years of development that has had a direct impact on mid market organizations today. As is the case with many technology advancements, what was once costly and difficult becomes more refined and accessible over time. Evolutions in open standards, Web technologies, and development environments are now benefiting the mid market segment. A new wave of CRM solutions has recently arrived on the market that should be of significant interest to mid market managers because these systems have been designed to bring greater affordability to companies that are mandated to keep a close watch on their monetary resources at all times. These new solutions for managing customer relationships offer a codeless development environment in which the customization process for modifying an application is considerably simplified and consistency can be achieved for easier IT management. A CRM solution that has been custom-tailored to fit a company’s exact business needs and goals can enable the company to increase its sales as well as its product distribution. A customized solution that affords innovative features and deep Functionality for further increasing user productivity can allow a company to deliver superior business results. Moreover, when a company embeds its own best practices into its CRM applications and this is extended outward, it can realize far greater consistencies in its business processes throughout its own operation as well as in its interactions with external constituencies. Using CRM as a Management tool When analytic tools are integrated into CRM as now can be found in the new, modern solutions, the bottom-line benefits can be substantial. Analytic applications help guide strategy formulation and operational improvement. Using these tools, a company (and its partners) can conduct analytic activities such as market segmentation and forecasting, budgeting and planning, and sales analysis and optimization. Analytics provide the foundation for understanding the way that customers interact with the company. They have the ability to track customers’ every move, track campaign effectiveness, and identify the most valuable customers. While large and enterprise class organizations have the luxury of being able to employ business analysts internally for this insight, this capability has been far outside the resources of the mid market organization. However, with analytics built into these new CRM solutions, mid market customers not only have access to the capability, but it is delivered within the context of the business process. When companies can more accurately forecast outcomes of customer behavior and analyze alternative actions, they are better enabled to increase revenue and profits as well as contain costs. Analytic applications are of tremendous benefit to mid market companies because they can identify more ways for companies to save money. Since mid market companies have fewer resources available to them compared with larger rival corporations, business intelligence tools can help them gain an added competitive edge.

Social CRM Software
11March 2010 |
For businesses of all sizes, acquiring, retaining, and supporting customers is more challenging than ever before. But the rise of social media blogs, social networks, etc. offers a wealth of consumer data that businesses can leverage for client retention. More than 80% of Americans aged 18-55+ use social networks and tools monthly, which means two things: 1) there is a wealth of customer information on social networks/conversation platforms that businesses cannot afford to ignore, and 2) businesses will benefit by reaching out to existing and potential customers through these social platforms. Social CRM systems (previously referred to as “CRM 2.0”) have emerged as a way for businesses to consolidate customer-related processes across functional areas as a traditional CRM platform would but with the addition of social media management and monitoring. Within the Social CRM space, there are many types of solutions, each having their own flavor, and each meeting different business needs. What is Social CRM Software? Social CRM is a process for monitoring, engaging in, and managing conversations and relationships with existing and prospective customers and influencers across the Internet, social networks, and digital channels. Social CRM is very much supplementary to traditional CRM processes, as it aims to engage communities and foster the creation of content for a targeted market, converting content into conversations and collaborative experiences that will hopefully build meaningful relationships with customers. In many ways, Social CRM is traditional CRM with the bonus of social media / conversational data analysis and management. Does My Company Need Social CRM Software? Businesses of all sizes and in all industries can derive value from a Social CRM solution. The increasing number of users on social networking sites is a testament to that, and the data created on these sites can prove invaluable. Traditional CRM is still relevant: it focuses on contact management, and manages the processes, services, and technology that marketing, sales, and customer service departments rely on. However, the growth in social media usage has led to a shift in customer behavior consumers expect personal interactions with their favorite brands and leveraging social media for customer outreach is become crucial. And as social media makes customers more accessible, a Social CRM platform that manages and monitors social media campaigns and communities is a no-brainer. Common Social CRM Features Social CRM is intended to help businesses monitor and execute campaigns and outreach initiatives to engage customers in collaborative conversation, and such platforms come in various forms. Important Note: There are two basic Social CRM models. The first is what many major CRM vendors are offering: social media management capabilities in the form of modules that integrate with their existing CRM platforms. Modules can range from simple (just a Twitter integration) to complex (complete community management) depending on a business’s outreach goals. The other route: there are a number of Social CRM vendors whose platforms focus almost exclusively on customer relationship management through social networks. These Social CRM products were developed with community engagement and online communication in mind, and are less process-centric than the aforementioned Social CRM platforms. Some of these products are standalone platforms, but nonetheless they are usually integrative with major CRM platforms. This article was posted by wakensys28 |
