Customer relations

The shift in emphasis from transactional marketing to relationship marketing is all about changing attitudes to customers. It used to be more important to attract the customer and close the sale. But increasingly value is now placed on keeping customers long term and marketing plays a critical role in this.

This section offers advice if you are focusing on customer service in general, customer relationship management (CRM) systems and strategies, or on pan-company marketing.
