What is a good CRM strategy?

CRM is an abbreviation for Customer Relationship Management, and with the right CRM strategy, it will be possible for companies to attract new customers as well as maintain and strengthen the customer relationships they have.

The CRM strategy must ensure a loyal and efficient customer service at all relevant touch points in the customer journey

Why you need a CRM strategy

A good customer experience ensures that the customer comes again. A CRM strategy enables companies to meet their customers where they are, as well as maintain the full overview of customers’ interaction with the company’s products, services, marketing campaigns, and more.

This means that an effective CRM strategy makes it possible to keep customers close while linking them with the most relevant sales, marketing, and customer service departments.

How to determine the best CRM strategy

The key word for CRM strategy is… the customer! It is the customer who should be at the center and thus also whom, who the strategy must conform to.

As a result, we have 4 tips on how to determine the best CRM strategy.

  • 1. Formulate the vision of the strategy

    A strategy seldom works without a vision. As a result, formulate the vision of the strategy. What do you want to achieve? Higher customer satisfaction, higher resale rate, or something third?

    Remember that the strategy is not an end but part of the company’s overall strategy.

  • 2. Define your target audience

    It is essential that you understand your customer. Create an image of the ideal customer and consider the following: what does the customer prefer? Which interests does the customer have? Also consider the demographic factors such as age, gender, marital status, and location.

    The more details, the better you know your customer and can create a CRM strategy that makes sense for both parties.

  • 3. Analyze the customer journey

    It is alpha and omega that you always know the customer’s journey and the interaction with your company – before, during and after a purchase.

    Find the most important touch points and consider how these interactions can be made more efficient.

  • 4. Implement a CRM system

    We usually say that CRM strategy is both a system and a business strategy.

    A CRM system makes it easier to implement the new strategy in a way that all parties can keep up digitally.

The CRM strategy must ensure a loyal and efficient customer service at all relevant touch points in the customer journey.
