system for managing all of your company’s interactions with current and potential customers. The goal is simple: improve relationships to grow your business. CRM technology helps companies stay connected to customers, streamline processes, and improve profitability.</p> <p>When people talk about CRM, they’re usually referring to a CRM system: software that helps track each interaction you have with a prospect or customer. That can include sales calls, customer service interactions, <a href="https://www.salesforce.com/ca/marketing/email/" target="_self">marketing emails</a>, and more.</p> <p>CRM tools can unify customer and company data from many sources and even use <a href="https://www.salesforce.com/ca/artificial-intelligence/" target="_self">AI (artificial intelligence)</a> to help better manage relationships across the entire customer lifecycle, spanning departments like <a href="https://www.salesforce.com/ca/marketing/" target="_self"><ins>marketing</ins></a>, <a href="https://www.salesforce.com/ca/sales/" target="_self"><ins>sales</ins></a>, <a href="https://www.salesforce.com/ca/commerce/" target="_self"><ins>digital commerce</ins></a>, and <a href="https://www.salesforce.com/ca/service/" target="_self"><ins>customer service interactions</ins></a>.</p> <p>That’s the CRM definition.
