Summary
Customer Relationship Management: Concepts and Tools is a breakthrough book that makes transparent the complexities of customer relationship management. The book views customer relationship management as the core business strategy that integrates internal processes and functions, and external networks, to create and deliver value to targeted customers at a profit. Customer relationship management is grounded on high quality customer data and enabled by information technology. The book is a comprehensive and fully developed textbook on customer relationship management . Although, it shows the roles of customer data and information technology in enabling customer relationship management implementation, it does not accept that customer relationship management is just about IT. Rather it is about an IT- and data-enabled approach to customer acquisition, customer retention and customer development.Because customer relationship management is a core business strategy the book demonstrates how it has influence across the entire business, in areas such as strategic, marketing, operations, human resource, and IT management. Customer relationship management 's influence also extends beyond the company to touch on partner and supplier relationships. An Instructor's PowerPoint pack is available to lecturers who adopt the book. Accredited lecturers can download this by going to http://books.elsevier.com/manuals'isbn=075065502X to request access.

Summary
Research verifies that the 80/20 rule summarizes the stable relationship of inputs to outputs-- including the impact of customers on the profit of a business. According to this universal law, a business can predict that the most profitable 20% of its customers generates 80% of its profit from customers and that customers in this top market segment are 16 times more profitable than customers in the bottom market segment. Thus when a business replaces all customers in the bottom market segment with new customers in the top market segment, the business can expect to quadruple its profit from customers.
