The Changing Role of Social Media in Sales, Marketing, and Customer Service

An interesting share on the topic of change in Sales, Marketing and Customer Service, a great insight of Ziff Davis. Enjoy the new outlook for your business. What is the first place potential customers go when they first hear about a new product? Google?  Facebook? They see what’s being said about the product and company, if any of their “friends” (in the loosest social media sense) know about it (or, more to the point, “like” it), and find reviews in various online media outlets.

Why Social CRM is important to Business

Why Social CRM is important to Business
The term “social CRM” carries two very different meanings for businesses. On the one hand, social CRM can refer to customer relationship management systems that track social media campaigns and engagement. On the other, social CRM systems can be considered those that use familiar features of social networking to facilitate collaboration and communication across and within business units. The first is increasingly critical for successful marketing and sales; the second is becoming indispensible for organizations looking to involve a variety of stakeholders in customer-centered sales cycles.
