customer. It is the same in every business. Retaining this
customer is the critical first step for success.

10.  Phone calls, emails, mobile phone text messages, or WAP
services can be used to reach to the customers.
 Illustration: When tickets are purchased online via
Makemytrip.com, the website retains the customers details and
their purchase history. The website regularly send emails to
previous customers to inform them of similar upcoming events
or special discounts. This helps to ensure that customers will
continue to purchase tickets from Makemytrip.com in the future.

11. CRM software- “Front office” solutions
Many call centres use CRM software to store all of their
customer's details. When a customer calls, the system can be
used to retrieve and store information relevant to the
customer. By serving the customer quickly and efficiently, and
also keeping all information on a customer in one place, a
company aims to make cost savings, and also encourage new
customers.

12.  Staff members often remember the names and favourite
services/products of regular customers and use this
information to create a personalised service for them.
 For example, in a hospital library you will know the name of
nurses that come in often and probably remember the area
that they work in.
 However, face-to-face CRM could prove less useful when
organisations have a large number of customers as it would be
more difficult to remember details about each of them.
