General - How do I determine if my Sales & Marketing organization needs Contact Management/CRM?
  • Do you have one central location to access prospect & client information?
  • Can you measure the effectiveness of your marketing campaigns and track who received what/when?
  • Do you have the ability to accurately and efficiently receive forecast information from your sales reps?
  • Can you view customer transactions from your back office system to get real time spending information?
  • Is your solution now tailored to your specific business requirements?

If you have answered NO to any of these questions then you need to evaluate a CRM solution.
