All business leaders know that their customer's information is a really valuable asset, and customer relationship management is crucial.

It is imperative to implement systems to manage and standardise CRM, so why is it that we see numerous CRM projects failing, the systems aren't used at all, are under utilised or mis-managed?

CRM is widely known the marketing project that fails most often. Why are there so many CEO's who can't understand why they can't make it work? Why is it that CRM is the most likely project to end up in a car crash?

Our sister business in the UK, Freeman Clarke, put together a CEO's briefing that explains what a CRM system is, why companies use them and most importantly 10 golden rules to avoid a CRM car crash!
