Warning!
Creating a CRM system even if done well is:• Long• Requires a large amount staff time• Intrusive to Organizations Operations
![Page 9: Spreadsheets to CRM - Graham](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54551650b1af9fcf338b46b4/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Wikipedia Definition• Customer relationship management is a broadly recognized, widely-
implemented strategy for managing and nurturing a company’s interactions with clients and sales prospects. It involves using technology to organize, automate, and synchronize business processes—principally sales activities, but also those for marketing, customer service, and technical support. The overall goals are to find, attract, and win new clients, nurture and retain those the company already has, entice former clients back into the fold, and reduce the costs of marketing and client service. [1] Once simply a label for a category of software tools, today, it generally denotes a company-wide business strategy embracing all client-facing departments and even beyond. When an implementation is effective, people, processes, and technology work in synergy to increase profitability, and reduce operational costs

![Page 12: Spreadsheets to CRM - Graham](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54551650b1af9fcf338b46b4/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
How import is this person to you?
• A person who volunteered for you organization once?
• Someone who gave a one time donation of $50.00?• Attends a lecture your organization sponsored?• A client of one of your service programs?
• What if this is all the same person?
![Page 13: Spreadsheets to CRM - Graham](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54551650b1af9fcf338b46b4/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Build on what you did together
• Who talked to that donor last? What did they talk about? What does your donor care about?
![Page 15: Spreadsheets to CRM - Graham](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54551650b1af9fcf338b46b4/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
ManagementHow do we capture these relationships?
• How many have a “data entry” person?• Do they have the relationship?• Move to a decentralized data entry model
![Page 16: Spreadsheets to CRM - Graham](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54551650b1af9fcf338b46b4/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Coin of the Realm

• Get used to guessing about service
• Separate, disconnected data files
• Duplicate data entry and redundant work
• Poor communications and information sharing
![Page 22: Spreadsheets to CRM - Graham](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061111/54551650b1af9fcf338b46b4/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Life with a CRM• More accurate and predictable budgeting
• Clearer picture of relationships with funders, donors, and clients

• Tool for growth for the organization
• Can stop cycle of “silo-ed” information
• Can help boost your efficiency and effectiveness
• May help create a community impact or service never thought of before
