With an effective customer measurement and management system, you can build organizational value. To do so, you will continually pursue three key activities: (1) gather customer information (2) spread that information throughout the organization and (3) use the information to maintain, improve and innovate in products and processes.
This presentation uses some common examples and case study of Customer management and measurement from Volvo and Sears.
