It believes its three-step strategy will create lasting ties with customers. Core Topic Customer Relationship Management: Creating Business Value for CRM Key Issue What is a CRM strategy, and how does it relate to and integrate with other enterprise business strategies, processes and operations?

Audi is part of the Volkswagen (VW) Group and is headquartered in Germany. It has over 51,000 employees and sells through over 5,000 dealers across more than 100 countries.

...Abstract The decision for Howard Holdings to take their business to the internet is primarily to reach more customers. Today, most consumers do online research before they make any decisions to make a big purchase. We will also make some improvements in our marketing strategy by performing Search Engine optimization making sure HH is quickly and easily found on the internet. As with online research, consumers go to social media sites to read what others have posted about businesses and the relationships or lack of a business and consumer have. Another reason for HH to go online is that there are no area competitors with a website. Building a site is a great way to keep a jump on the competition, by getting our name and business out in the public. HH will build the website to be as user friendly as possible. We will do this by allowing renters to create accounts to pay their rent online by using Google’s shopping cart method. HH will also build relationships with area plants that have contractors staying in the area for short term work. By building this relationship, we will be able to branch into the international market with referrals from the plants and designing our website to be internationally friendly. Of course having a business website does cost money but, in order to the HH name out there, we have to be willing to spend money to make money.

...has enabled business to connect and maintain strong relations with customers and all other related parties. The Internet has transformed how many people do business and continues to grow at an astounding rate (Larry Kesslin, President, Let's Talk Business Network). Beginning of Internet Era in business Since the mid-1990s, the Internet has had a revolutionary impact on culture and commerce (Wikipedia). Existing enterprises went through stages of deployment of the Internet, most of which had minimal impact on their work. Simply put, between 1994 and 1998, managers went through a period of discovery, creating their first Web sites, populating them with information about their firms, products, and services, and providing contact information. Initially, it started with providing information about company’s products on Internet, the look and feel of which mirrored the printed brochures of the 1980’s and early 1990’s. The range of possible uses of the Internet in the business expanded all through the 1990s and the early 2000s as the technology evolved and became capable of performing new functions, and as firms learned how to leverage them. In the 1990s, in addition to existing firms using the Internet as an alternative channel through which to conduct business, while keeping earlier telecommunications networks, new companies appeared that only operated over the Internet, such as E*TRADE and Datek. By the late 1990s, over two hundred firms provided...
