Customer Relationship Management
Too many organisations misunderstand Customer Relationship Management (CRM) or abuse the concept. They see it as a quick fix - an opportunity to squeeze more revenue from their client base; to use data management and mining techniques to haunt their customers and hunt down more transactions.
Many more fail to see the relationship from their customer's point of view; they assume that the relationship is unique when they are just one of the suppliers in the customer's repertoire of options, or the assume that the customer is loyal when they are simply too busy to find a new, better supplier.
Starting from these attitudes and assumptions it is little wonder that few organisations have implemented a viable CRM strategy and most find that their customers are cynical, disaffected and sceptical. After all, many organisations use a simplistic reward mechanism as a key element in their retention techniques.
Yet there are 
simple guidelines that everyone could follow that will help to ensure the success of a Customer Relationship Management programme.
Coussins Associates has worked with many blue chip organisations as well as small to medium sized enterprises to help them develop Customer Relationship Management strategies that are cost effective and successful, and to implement relationship communications programmes that focus on retention and development.
