CRM + Social = Social CRM

Contact information and relationship management has long been a key success factor for any businesses. Amongst other benefits, CRM helps businesses:

• Learn more about its customers and prospects and help to identify new market opportunities
• Store unique and relevant information about individual customers so that staff can have it on hand when it's needed
• Improve internal processes to create an efficient and effective workforce

Traditionally, CRM is focused on managing two way communication: Business to Customer and Customer to Business. However in recent times, the importance of social media in the business environment has encouraged a new frontier in CRM: social customer relationship management (SCRM). Social brings a new element into CRM; instead of dealing only with data and information businesses are now dealing with conversations and relationships with the social customer. These conversations and relationships take place not only from company to consumer but also from consumer to consumer.

Social CRM understands that businesses communicate with their prospects and customers in ways other than phone and email and it recognises that customer service reps, marketing and front-line staff need to have access to relevant social streams. With this information they can identify trends, prospects and opportunities for the business.
