  6. „The true business of every company is to make and keep customers.” Peter Drucker

  7. What is CRM? – the „dark side” • All started with „all promising” technology investments: • Call Center • Sales Automation Software • Internet based customer service • Campaign management solutions • Integrated CRM solutions • Than the disillusionment came • 70% of Big CRM investments were not justified by either cost-cutting or revenue increase (late ’90-ies data) • In 2002 $13 billion has been spent on CRM related technology „The CRM „spirit” is willing, but the cash backing is still weak” „Customer privacy concerns require improvement in marketing capabilities.” „As the channel mix grows, enterprises will become more accountable for the ways in which they reach out for the customers” Gartner predictions

  8. What is CRM? – the „challenge” still ahead • Key questions still persist: • Do you know which customers are the most profitable? • Which customers are satisfied, …and which not so much? • Do you know, what they would need (Who? What? How?) • How your customer service processes compare in speed, cost and value to your competitor? • How the executive leadership is supportive and your culture is customer oriented? • Does your technology support your aspirations?

  9. Increasing competition Deregulation Common market Low cost competitors Need for „real-time” response Decreased customer loyalty or a threat of that Revenue uncertainties More customers Lower prices, dropping revenue per user Increasing marketing and sales costs More products and services Shortening cycle times Multiple channels (e-Commerce, Internet, Contact Center, etc.) Why? – The „real CRM levers”

  10. CRM – is a Paradigm shift Our objective is to sell as many products to our Buyer as as possible. We want to obtain the highest possible profit margin on each Buyer through maximizing his satisfaction by providing him with the most appropriate products and services given his needs and buyer capacity. Our objective is to sell our product to as many Buyers as possible. We want to sell these products on the highest possible price and produce, service them on the lowest possible cost.

  14. Evolution of Mobile market A „general” view: Stage 1: „Starting up” Stage 2: „Growing” Stage 3: „Maturing” „Customers” agenda: • Network quality • Coverage • Phone sets / appliances • Products & Services • Pricing • Brand • Customer Service • Customer insights • Tailored offers • Smooth servicing • Globalisation Business issues: How to get a sustainable advantage? • Network development investments • Phone subsidies • Rapid growth • Revenue stream risks • Accent on customer service • New services / tariffs • Continuous growth • Competition (copying services/tariffs)

  15. 2. On the CRM interaction screen the high churn probabiliy of this customer is visible. 3. Based on the “Retention offerings”, the most suitable proposal is made to the customer. What is CRM? – in the real life… Example 1: Identifying Churnprobability and make a relevant offer! 1. A Regular customer calls Call Center and asks for the detailed invoice to be resent again.

  16. 3. The agent registers the reaction of the customer in the CRM solution. What is CRM? – in the real life… Example 2: Support Cross selling with targeted relevant offer! 1. A Customer comes to a shop to buy a new headset. After the sales the agent registers the interaction in the CRM solution. 2. Since the sales resulted a positive mood, the agent proposes a new MMS tariff plan to the customer based on the three targeted offers available in the CRM solution.

  17. 1. A prepaid customer calls Call Center and asks why an ordered service is not available for free, although he recharges regularly with a high amount. 2. Since the churn lamp shows high churn and the customer has a high value, the CSR offers the migration to post-paid (because the requested service is free for post-paid) 3. Since further processing required (in back office) the CSR registers the request and assigns it to the relevant user group. What is CRM? – in the real life… Example 3: Support prepaid-postpaid migration, retention with workflows

  18. 1. A Customer calls Call Center, who has been targeted with the recent SMS campaign. 3. The CSR can use this information to find out the response of the customer. The preferred way of contact of the customer can be registered. 2. A Flash window appears for the CSR, notifying her/him about the campaign.
