The book explores in depth a variety of issues including *strategies, policies and plans; *measuring the impact; *segmentation; *the implementation programme; *customer loyalty and continuity; *transparent marketing, customer value and process management; *customer knowledge management; *technical systems and data management; *managing good and bad customers; and *establishing ROI and satisfying the board. Based on worldwide research into CRM supported by IBM, Up Close & Personal? brings together the work of four leading experts in the field: Gamble, Stone, Woodcock and Foss.
