FAQs
What you’ll need to know about Customer Relationship Management systems.
CRM systems are software that manages all interactions with the customer.
CRM systems typically include contact management, case management, sales management, and customer service and support—managing interactions through communications channels such as email, phone, and social media.
A CRM system improves the customer experience while increasing customer loyalty.
Here’s how:
- Improved customer insight by gathering and presenting data such as purchase history and preferences from all omnichannel interactions, which can be used to personalize customer interactions.
- Enhanced customer service by tracking issues and responding efficiently and effectively.
- Increased operational efficiency to streamline processes and improve communications between retailers and customers.
In retail, digital self-service refers to digital technologies that enable customers to serve themselves post-purchase. It offers cost savings because it minimizes the need to use store and contact center resources for most requests.
Digital self-service can be offered through online sites or apps that allow customers to track and self-manage orders and returns. Virtual assistants, such as chatbots or voice-activated devices, are emerging as new ways for customers to manage their post-purchase experience conveniently.
