Agenda for today
– CRM definition– How does it all work?– What Capabilities are required?– IT support– CRM Business Case– A mobile telco case
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

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
Why? – The „real CRM levers”
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.)

We want to sell these products on the highest possible price and produce, service them on the lowest possible cost.

Example 1: Identifying Churn probability and make a relevant offer!
1. A Regular customer calls Call Center and asks for the detailed invoice to be resent again.
3. Based on the “Retention offerings”, the most suitable proposal is made to the customer.
2. On the CRM interaction screen the high churn probabiliy of this customer is visible.
What is CRM? – in the real life…
16
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.
Example 2: Support Cross selling with targeted relevant offer!
What is CRM? – in the real life…
3. The agent registers the reaction of the customer in the CRM solution.
17
Example 3: Support prepaid-postpaid migration, retention with workflows
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.

Example 4: Unified channels
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.

Lessons Learnt – To Focus On
Business Journey - a clear business direction that shows how the business will become customer centric
Customer Strategies - that plans the customer journey from initial prospect to high value customer and enables all customer facing functions to know what is required of them to achieve this goal
Organisation Design – purpose built to deliver the customer strategies and provides the cultural framework for transitioning the business
Information Architecture - that underpins the execution of the customer strategy, providing the right data, processes and treatments at each customer touch point
Performance Measures - that recognise and reward the new behaviours required for the company to become customer centric
26
Lessons Learnt –To Avoid
Low company leadership commitment Misaimed scope of the project Internal focus of the business, often product centric Functional organisation design Unchanging command and control culture Inadequate customer data (also inconsistency of
customer data between applications) Emphasis on IT as a solution for CRM
