Your customers are essential to the success of your business; CRM and Automation allow you to stay better connected to them than ever before.
CRM stands for Customer Relationship Management, and refers to a piece of software, technology or system that is used for managing all of the interactions and relationships that your company has with its customers and sales leads.
CRM systems bring together all the data and information your company holds about its customer and sales lead relationships, including any contact details, calls, notes, emails, text messages, meetings, documents, quotes, purchase and tasks, and present it to you and your team in a way which makes it easier than ever before to track and manage.
