For instance, some companies use CRM for sales management or to handle market segmentation and marketing campaigns. Others use it for knowledge management. And some companies use CRM in the customer service department providing service management. But the role of CRM can be more than just a tool for marketing or customer support, sales force automation. In fact, CRM can help automate business processes and integrate every client-facing department with service organization, resulting in increased customer satisfaction, long-term relationships and increased sales. The concept of CRM is premised on the simple logic of business : it must keep tracking customers once attracted; retain them in business portfolio and profit from their growth. CRM can be viewed in 4 ways * Firstly it is a existing response to the emerging climate of unprecedented customer churn, waning brand loyalty and lower profitability. * Second, CRM is central to the task of making an organization customer centric. * Third, CRM is the definite symbol embracing IT in business. * Fourth, CRM is the most certain way to increase value to the customers and profitability to the practicing organizations.

Developing strategic relationships with customers should therefore be a central issue on the CSO’s agenda moreover in current context. Key Account Management is a systematic process for managing key interactions and relationships with most valuable customers. It focuses on the creation, implementation, execution and evaluation of an overall plan to guide the account team in developing new relationships at the C-level, aligning the best resources to the most profitable opportunities and delivering what was promised. Everybody would agree on the strategy, even more when you know that the Pareto principle applies here also with 20% of the customers generating 80% of the revenue/profit. However when looking at our recent CSO Insights’ study, execution seems different: 51% More than half of the companies recognize that they need improvement in selecting key accounts 60% CSO interviewed understand they lose deals because their competitors have established a better relationship with their customer 52% Also recognize their Key Account plan need improvment 2 Why Key Account Management has become increasingly important ...

Digital Networking Technologies: 3 types, 1. Client/server computing: servers connect to many clients. 2. Packet switching: method of delivering data across a local or a long distance connection, it packages data in units (packets) which identifies intended recipient. 3. TCP(Transmission Control Protocol)/IP(Internet Protocol): a set of protocols to get data from one network device to another. Signal is the transmission of data. Analog signals can be converted into digital signals by using a modem. Analog signals are replicas of sound waves that can be distorted with the noise and drop the quality of transmission. Digital signals have a faster rate of transmission. LAN (Local Area Network): the topology (place) of a LAN can vary greatly, - Star: if the host computer goes down the whole network goes down. - Bus: all computers in the network are linked with cables and treated equally. - Ring: no central host PC, if one PC goes down the rest can still process data & transactions.
