Manufacturing companies are increasingly moving toward digital transformation of their sales and marketing operations with CRM to increase efficiency and to provide a better customer experience. CRM can deliver faster sales cycles, higher win rates, more loyal customers and accelerated marketing. Unfortunately, more than 60% of the time, CRM projects fail to deliver on those promises. This session will be especially valuable for managers and other stakeholders of CRM projects that have been struggling with CRM adoption or that are just starting a CRM project. Attendees will learn why some CRM projects fail—and how to successfully recover, and better yet, understand how to get set up for success from the start. Ed Gonzales, Marketing and eCommerce Manager for Hampton Products, is co-presenting the session, describing his company’s CRM journey. He will be sharing a real case study, including how important CRM is for manufacturing, struggles experienced, and practical insights on successful CRM implementation in the manufacturing sector. Takeaways include: - The simple and memorable framework to stay focused on CRM success - Why 80% of users are disappointed with customer relationship projects - One unattainable goal almost everyone sets at the start of a CRM project - Understanding the root causes of failure and how to stop treating the symptoms - A case study in catastrophe—learn from the struggle and recovery of others Tricia Desso-Cox is the Managing Director of C5 Insight.
