CRM stands for “customer relationship management,” pure and simple. And it’s come a long way since a phone call, a set of sticky notes, and a handshake.
These days, a CRM system allows businesses to manage customer relationships from everywhere, including the data and information associated with them. With CRM, you can store customer and prospect contact information, accounts, leads, and sales opportunities in one central location.
Deals go much faster when your employees can get instant information on potential sales deals, marketing campaigns, and account updates. CRM systems are especially helpful for small businesses, where a team of just a few people often does the work of many. The virtual paper trail of a CRM system holds everyone involved accountable, even the customer. No sticky notes, patchwork apps, spreadsheets needed.
So you find more customers, win more deals, and keep customers happier as a team, from anywhere. But let’s go through all the different ways CRM helps you more specifically.
