Customer relationship management is the durable and the most effective approach in maintaining and creating relationship with customers. Once this personal and emotional relationship is built, it is very easy for any organization to identify the actual needs of customer and help them to serve them in a better way. Business organization would not flourish until and unless their customers are happy; this is the reason, why Customer Relationship Management (CRM) is so important? In the present competitive business environment attracting and retaining customers is a challenging task for business organization. To grow, businesses do any only need to attract new customers but also to hold on to existing customers. CRM facilitates organization not only to gain customers but also to retain them. It focuses on improving sales and productivity by effectively catering to customer demands, queries and complaints. Though the traditional method of maintaining good customer relations is still being used yet the importance of CRM cannot be neglected. The more effectively a business can use information about its customer to meet their needs the more profitable it would be for the organization. Companies can provide excellent customer service if they are aware about their customers’ needs and react to those needs effectively. CRM helps you to understand, anticipate and respond to your customers’ needs and react in a consistent way. The paper analyses how organization use CRM as a technique to gain business distinction.

In this chapter we introduce the concept of Service Mediary, which provides a conceptual and technical platform for electronic services. Our analysis shows that it pays off to outsource customer relationship management in electronic channels to a specialized service provider. The I-mode case study demonstrates clearly the benefits this kind of cooperation offers to content and service providers. Especially the built-in billing and revenue sharing logic are critical elements to I-mode’s success story. Even more encouraging are the benefits of collaboration to customers, who will enjoy the fruits of the new networked e-business economy. A Service Mediary is in a position to understand the customer requirements and building a service offering which optimally matches those requirements. In the multi-channel business environment of tomorrow, no single company can develop cost efficiently all required services for every channel. The future belongs to specialized, closely cooperating companies, which can offer superior customer experience at a competitive price. A Service Mediary like NTT DoCoMo with its I-mode service can offer a true win-win-win business model: service providers, customers and the Service Mediary all win in this game. Based on the analysis of the I-mode case, we can conclude that Service Mediary as a business model has a great potential in the future.
