| Abstract: "CRM technology does more than streamline customer service–it offers a
360-degree outlook on your business. No organization can benefit more from this
panorama view than large enterprise. Customer Relationship Management promotes
synergy across all front-office functions: Marketing, Sales & Distribution,
and Support. Sharing information and analysis streamlines the sales cycle from
start to finish–from prospect to satisfied customer, marketing campaign to sales
revenue, business data to expanded market share. The signature benefits of
Customer Relationship Management for large enterprises becomes clear as a
business grows, making integration and agility more challenging. Multiple
locations, a dispersed workforce, autonomous departments, and scattered
databases can fragment any business operation. However, if a solid CRM strategy
is in place, these various functions coordinate to maximize tangible and
intangible profits. " |

| Abstract: "This document is written to address the specific issues related to CRM and
Sales Professionals. When considering a CRM solution, it is critical to
understand the needs of your sales team members and how they would utilize this
CRM application on a daily basis. CRM software should be deployed as a
supplement to the selling process, not a hurdle. All too often, CRM applications
have too much depth and complexity and as a result, they are not utilized on a
regular basis. You can ask any number of sales people who are currently using a
CRM solution and many may tell you that they typically use about 1/3 of the
features it offers. Why? Because, many of the features in some upper-tier CRM
systems do not supplement the sales process. In fact, some features may INCREASE
the effort of the sales person to close a sale. The remaining portions of this
white paper are focused on issues that can help you avoid implementation of a
CRM solution that does NOT fit your needs or the needs of your sales
team."
