The concept of CRM in theory is simple:
Listen to your customers and act on what they are saying to create a mutually beneficial relationship.
Companies with current implementations of CRM technology can usually hear their customers; however, because they are only focusing on the operational and collaborative component of CRM, they cannot really understand them. They must also consider analytical CRM to optimize their customer relationships.

CRM Challenges• Integrating customer content
All interactions and knowledge about customers must be synthesised and stored in a way that anyone in the organization with a need to know can access that information in real-time and in a way that supports that current problem. Currently most organizations cannot do this or are even close to this
• Contact management
The channels that customers use to contact an organization are increasing – Web, call centre, fax, email, voice message etc. These technologies must be integrated so that staff can access the details regardless of channel. Consistent business rules need to be applied across all channels of contact
• End-to end business processes
Business processes must be integrated and consistent eg. sales and service. The service staff must have access to sales details and commitments and apply consistent rules of dealing with the customers. This requires much more integration between processes than is current.
