Why is CRM the “heart” of every thriving business?

Many people still mistakenly believe that a good product is enough. In reality, customers can forget you very quickly if you don't maintain interaction with them. A Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system was created to precisely solve these problems.

Every sustainable strategy starts with customer data

Whether you want to personalize the experience, retain customers long-term, or optimize your marketing strategy, you need an accurate and complete customer data platform. When a business grows and is managed solely by memory, you will face the following worrying risks:

• Missing potential customers: Messages, comments on Facebook, or emails are easily overlooked and not responded to promptly.
• Forgetting to follow up with existing customers: Lack of a reminder system to re-engage after a purchase significantly reduces the likelihood of repeat business.
• Sending the wrong message at the wrong time: Confusing new customers with VIPs, sending irrelevant advertising content that is annoying and damages brand reputation.

Taking care of the right people, at the right time, with the right content.

To achieve maximum effectiveness in customer care, businesses need to apply a "care the right way" strategy. This includes three core elements: Caring for the right people, caring at the right time, and caring with the right content.

Caring for the right people:

• Clearly define the target audience for each campaign or message
• Segment customers based on behavior, interests, purchase history, or other criteria to personalize content
• Use CRM data to know exactly who each customer is and what they need

Caring at the right time:

• Send messages at the time when customers are most likely to interact (e.g., after a purchase, when a birthday is approaching, or when there are signs of interest in the product)
• Set up automated trigger sequences based on customer behavior (e.g., welcome emails upon registration, reminders for abandoned carts)
• Avoid sending too many messages that might annoy customers.

Focus on the right content:

• Personalize message content, emails, or offers to suit each customer's individual preferences and needs.
• Provide useful information, solve problems, or deliver real value to customers.
• Ensure content is clear, concise, and includes a specific call to action if needed.
• Use language and tone appropriate to your target audience.

Retaining existing customers is much cheaper than acquiring new ones.

Typically, the cost of acquiring a new customer can be 5 to 7 times higher than the cost of retaining an existing one. Meanwhile, customers who have previously shopped with you or used your services are more likely to return if they feel cared for and valued. Here are some ways to build strong relationships with this customer group:

• Remember their preferences and purchase history: Use data from your CRM to track the products they have purchased, the types of services they are interested in, or even their birth dates.
• Personalize your messages: Send emails, text messages, or notifications that are tailored to each individual's preferences and needs. For example, suggest complementary products to an item they've already purchased, or inform them about a promotion for a product they've viewed but haven't bought yet.
• Use first names: Always address them by their first name in all communication to create a sense of closeness and being cared for.
