Product Description

Internet Business, February 2001

"The book is comprehensive, coherent and readable - a tribute to the editor - and features a wealth of case study material. It aims to provide a clear road map for companies wishing to implement CRM."


Product Description

Maximize customer satisfaction and maximize your bottom line

Over the last decade, too many organizations have assumed that their products or services were so superior that customers would automatically keep coming back for more. But in order to compete effectively in today′s marketplace, organizations must change their strategy to become more customer focused, not product focused. Customer Relationship Management (CRM) is the best way to integrate this customer–facing approach throughout an organization. Aimed at understanding and anticipating the needs of an organization′s current and potential customers, this innovative book shows how CRM links people, process, and technology to optimize an enterprise′s revenue and profits by first providing maximum customer satisfaction.
∗ Covers developing a market–oriented strategy, innovation in products and services, sales and channels transformation, customer relationship marketing, and customer care

Stanley A. Brown (Toronto, Canada) is Partner in Charge of the Centre of Excellence in Customer Care at PricewaterhouseCoopers in Toronto.

2.0 out of 5 stars Long on words, short on insights, 17 Aug 2001
By A Customer
The PWC book is a collection of chapters written by practice managers from each PWC region and discipline. It starts well, giving a good set of frameworks within which one could view the discipline of CRM. However, after a promising start, it then struggles to communicate true insights into how the organisations of today make a difference to the customer, and a difference to the organisations deploying the best CRM systems. Case studies are plentiful, but lack detail and metrics. I had hoped for more from this book - but try it out yourself as your needs may have been different to mine.

1.0 out of 5 stars A loose collection of poorly worded articles, 13 Jul 2000
By A Customer
I was looking forward to reading the combined wisdom of a "global leader" in the implementation of CRM solutions. Reading the book left me disappointed that PwC have simply lumped together a set of almost unrelated musings by consultants from around the world. The English is turgid and packed full of statements of the blindingly obvious. As a CRM consultant I worry that this kind of material gives consulting an even worse name than it already has. Peppers and Rogers work may appear less academic and more "chatty" but at least it is readable, memorable, and therefore has a chance of being usable.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply excelent..., 16 Dec 2000
By A Customer
I have found this book very enlighting. It is full of insight and is extremely well written.

From the scholar point of view, it includes market-oriented strategy, innovation in products and services, customer relationship marketing, and customer care.

I imagine the PwC practice will achieve excelent results in the coming months with its CRM projects ;-)
