CRM: Definition, Functions, and Benefits

Customer Relationship Management (CRM) is a tool or system that can be used by businesses to simplify business processes for a more seamless and simple communication flow. The CRM system also helps businesses monitor every stage of the customer’s sales journey so that they can be more aware if there are certain processes that need to be completed or reviewed.

However, the use of CRM is not only limited to simplifying the sales process. It can also help businesses provide memorable customer experience. In the long term, a positive customer experience can in turn produce loyal customers.

How exactly does CRM work? Simply put, a CRM system will store every customer interaction across various business channels into the same database. The information collected can be in the form of personal data, purchase history, needs sought, and so on. All this data can be accessed by every sales team on duty.

The convenience offered by a CRM system is certainly very tempting for businesses, especially if the business is classified as middle to upper scale with a large number of consumers. According to Findstack, there are at least 82% of businesses who feel that using CRM to create sales reports has automated the sales process, and as many as 92% of businesses believes that using a CRM system is very important to achieve their main goals of becoming a customer-centric business.

CRM has a variety of functions and other benefits in its application for businesses such as:

1. Helping businesses to centralize all consumer data obtained from conversations across multiple communication channels. This centralization of data helps businesses to minimize the presence of scattered or lost data.
2. Provide complete and accurate insights into what consumers want from your business. This insight is not just an estimate, but is believed to be accurate based on the data stored in the system.
3. Automatically record all types of sales opportunities received in each communication channel. This will certainly help businesses in monitoring every opportunity that comes, without missing a single one.
4. Helping businesses to know what kind of marketing activities are running effectively and efficiently, and which are not. This can help businesses evaluate and carry out more targeted marketing activities in the future.
5. Allocating opportunities from each potential lead to an appropriate agent so that consumer needs can be immediately addressed and given the most appropriate solution.
6. Assisting businesses in creating memorable and positive customer experiences for all consumers, as well as the opportunity to turn them into loyal customers.
7. Detailed knowledge of every need of consumers can certainly help businesses take one step closer to understanding their customers better. It also makes it easier for businesses to determine the most relevant solutions for their customers.
8. Assist businesses in monitoring and managing the entire sales process from start to finish for every customer. This can minimize the possibility of missed or late opportunities to manage customers. In the long term, of course, it can help businesses maximize the sales process with higher results than before.

Given the many functions and benefits provided by a CRM system for businesses, it is certainly not surprising that the need for this system is soaring every year. It is normal for businesses to want to implement a CRM system in order to achieve maximum results, both in terms of sales and customer experience.
