CRM is fundamentally essential for the future of the company. CRM technologies enable the company to understand customer behavior better, predict their future behavior, deliver customized customer experience, and establish long-term customer relationships. However, considering that CRM is only limited with technology would be a big mistake for the company. Companies cannot deliver outstanding customer value, service, and experiences only through investing in CRM technologies. Strategic integration of CRM philosophy into company culture and operating processes are required to deliver superior customer service and experience. In the absence of CRM strategy, companies fail to harvest the benefits of CRM. The main purpose of this chapter is to discuss the characteristics as well as the strategic objective of CRM strategy. This chapter explains the customer life cycle management and proposes a holistic framework for customer life cycle management. This chapter ends with discussing the strategies to turn customers into assets and create devoted customers.

PurposeDrawing from the theory of relationship dynamics, the purpose of this paper is to investigate how the relationship life cycle moderates the link between relationship quality and customer value co-creation. As customer-firm relationships pass through different stages (exploration, buildup, maturity, and decline) characterized by distinct customer behaviors, this study proposes a dynamic conceptual framework.Design/methodology/approachA questionnaire was administered in financial services firms. The final valid sample comprised 2,000 individuals. Subjective customer information from the questionnaire was combined with objective data that the financial entity provided.FindingsThe results demonstrate that the relationship life cycle plays a key moderating role, revealing that, in the buildup and maturity stages, the influence of relationship quality on customer value co-creation is stronger than in the decline stage. However, for customers in the exploration stage, relationship quality does not lead to customer value co-creation behaviors.Practical implicationsAs customer relationship stages are constantly evolving, this study provides companies with additional interesting tools to personalize business strategies and to adapt marketing investments to the specific situation of customers.Originality/valueTo the authors’ knowledge, this is the first study to consider how the relationship life cycle influences the strength with which relationship quality promotes customer value co-creation.

Purpose – This article aims to seek to provide a performance measurement scale for customer relationship management (CRM) software. The CRM concept is wide, yet prior literature offers only specific approaches. This scale goes beyond specific scenarios, to cover the various perspectives on CRM and provide quantitative validation of the measures. Design/methodology/approach – This paper describes the complete process for conceptualizing and operationalizing this reflective second-order construct, including a thorough literature review, qualitative research and a quantitative study with 208 companies that have implemented CRM software. Findings – Three main, interconnected constructs emerge to measure CRM software performance: customer life cycle, firm performance and operational performance. Retention, loyalty and satisfaction indicators form the customer life-cycle dimension. Firm performance refers to market share, efficiency, product adaptation, and new product launch indicators. The operational dimension includes improvement in sales performance, marketing campaigns, customer service and analysis of customer information. Research limitations/implications – This scale guides every element involved in CRM software implementation, toward a common objective. Practical implications – The CRM scale supports CRM software industry players and firms that intend to implement CRM software. The three model constructs provide guidelines about which improvements should be noted with a CRM implementation. Social implications – This scale help the companies who intend to implement CRM software conduct their agreement with the other parts involved (consultants, software developers and the firm). Originality/value – This paper meets an identified need, namely, to provide a CRM software performance measurement scale. The huge, unique sample is exclusive and obtained from a dedicated CRM software developer.
