Author: DR. GEETHA C.J |
Abstract: In today’s technology-driven landscape, social media has become essential for organizations aiming to stay competitive. It serves as a powerful tool for managing customer relationships and maintaining close connections with clients. This paper explores the impact of social media on the evolution of customer relationship management (CRM), focusing on the importance of social networks and their increasing prominence. The integration of social media into marketing strategies is highlighted as a key component in enhancing CRM practices. With CRM centered around prioritizing the customer, marketing efforts are increasingly tailored to this focus. Through case studies and survey data, the paper investigates the shift from traditional CRM to social CRM. Despite its emergence as a relatively new field, there is significant interest in how CRM can evolve alongside social media. The research underscores various ways in which companies can leverage social media to boost sales, profitability, advertising efforts, customer acquisition, retention, and loyalty. Adapting to this growing trend of social media integration is crucial for organizations seeking to thrive in the modern market. |
