An organization can find its most valuable customers by using a formula that industry insiders call FRM;
  • How recently a customer purchased items (recency).
  • How frequently a customer purchased items (frequency).
  • How much a customer speeds on each purchased (monetary value)

THE EVALUATION OF CRM

  • CRM reporting technologies help organizations identify their customers across other applications. 
  • CRM analysis technologies help organizations segment their customers into categories such as best and worst customers. 
  • CRM predicting technologies help organizations predict customer behavior, such as which customers are at risk of leaving.
