What is CRM

CRM (CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP MANAGEMENT)

A CRM (Customer Relationship Management) software is a software for managing customer relationships. They generally include commercial management, the area of communication and marketing, and customer service or after-sales. All in order to improve customer service and relationship, retaining them and improving the productivity of the company.

A CRM is an application that allows having all the information about a client in a single database. It not only includes general data but all the information related to commercial actions, communications, customer service… This allows all users to have complete information, which will produce a notable improvement in the knowledge of a client and this produces an anticipation of their needs, a better approach to campaigns and better customer service. A CRM in general includes a more or less detailed history of the activity with a client.

The use of CRM software is not only the use of a technology but it is a change of mentality for companies, it is the incorporation of a way of managing relationships advancing and the application of a strategy to attract and retain customers.

BENEFITS OF A CRM

A CRM allows us to have collected all the information of a client: contact information, preferences, billing information, commercial information, commercial communications sent… This information is also properly organized so that it is easier both to use and to analyze face to propose campaigns to a client.

It allows access to information to various users from different departments, which speeds up interdepartmental communication and, above all, improves the relationship with customers.

The use of a CRM by a company avoids duplicating information or clients, as well as allowing relevant information to be shared immediately between users that might otherwise be inaccessible. Therefore, customer or contact management improves and collaboration between the different departments increases significantly.

It allows you to follow up on clients and make future plans. With a CRM you will avoid leaving customers unattended, since it is possible to see which customers do not have a future commercial action or which have not purchased for a long time.

A CRM allows you to automate a multitude of processes and carry out automatic communications, so the improvement in the performance and productivity of the different departments is remarkable.

Thanks to the CRM and its analysis and reports, setting sales targets and forecasting future needs is easier and above all more reliable. All departments will benefit from the analysis resulting from the different reports (sales, marketing, billing…).

In the marketing area, there is an increase in ROI (return on investment) since it optimizes resources and allows the design of personalized campaigns thanks to customer segmentation in a CRM.

A company with a vision of the future should not neglect its customers and within its digitization strategy, a CRM software such as WolfCRM is essential.

ADVANTAGES FOR THE DIFFERENT DEPARTMENTS OF A CRM

A CRM is useful for the vast majority of departments in a company. To think that it is only useful for the commercial area is to significantly limit the use of the CRM.

COMMERCIAL DEPARTMENT

The sales team is logically a department that benefits considerably from the use of CRM software. The visualization of the history of actions is fundamental for the understanding of the sales process of each client. Sales managers can monitor other sales representatives and gain insight into the goals and performance of different campaigns. In addition, the entire team sees a reduction in the time dedicated to purely administrative data entry work, which allows them to spend more time on commercial work.

MARKETING DEPARTMENT

On the one hand, the marketing department benefits from the multitude of reports and statistics on clients and previous campaigns available in the CRM, which allows them to design marketing campaigns that are better adapted to the needs of the clients and obtain therefore more acceptance.

Using CRM software, the marketing team can design campaigns, assign different tasks, managers, objectives… as well as carry out marketing actions such as telemarketing or sending electronic communications such as newsletters.

CUSTOMER SERVICE DEPARTMENT

The customer service or quality department can benefit from all the information available, which has an impact on improving their service. The use of CRM allows omnichannel service and reduces incident or claim management time, communicating to the departments involved and improving customer satisfaction that they do not have to repeat and repeat the information since it is already available in the CRM.

ADMINISTRATION, LOGISTICS AND BILLING DEPARTMENT

The information of each client related to delivery notes, orders, budgets, shipping addresses, rates… is available at all times and allows quick access to these documents, facilitating the work of these departments.

It is also possible in a CRM to manage partners, suppliers and thus unify all the information necessary for a company in a single database.

HUMAN RESOURCES DEPARTMENT

The HR team can track employee performance and communicate with employees through CRM. Carrying out an analysis of the needs and the management of candidates for vacancies is another of the possible uses by this CRM department.

All the departments will be connected and will also obtain a global and non-partial vision of both the clients and the different business processes. The acquisition of a CRM, therefore, significantly benefits the entire company.

WHY CHOOSE AN ONLINE CRM
