CRM is an important investment that requires careful planning. When done right, CRM will help your company build profitable relationships with existing customers, as well as attract and sell greater numbers of new prospects. CRM ensures that your employees offer a consistent and positive buying experience to customers. It provides company-wide analysis, in real-time, that leads to better strategic decisions at every level of sales, marketing, and customer service.

But, if implemented incorrectly, CRM can fail to provide return on your investment and disrupt your organization's business processes. Without proper planning and assessment, you could select a CRM solution that does not meet the specific needs of your business, or industry. Many companies that suffered failed CRM initiatives did not identify key factors that would be critical for return on investment.
