Customer relationship management
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Customer relationship management (CRM) consists of the processes a company uses to track and organize its contacts with its current and prospective customers.

Typical CRM goals are to improve services provided to customers, and to use customer contact information for targeted marketing.
