Posted on: May 18, 2016 | By: Craig Thompson | Microsoft Dynamics CRM
Microsoft Dynamics CRM has become a staple in many organizations across the globe, but it can be easy to get lost in your businesses day to day operations and ultimately lose sight of the creative ways that CRM can help you expand. Driving revenue and serving customers has never been easier. Below you will find 3 of our favorite and most innovative ways to use CRM that go beyond sending emails and organizing contacts.
- Make an offer customers can't refuse
With Microsoft Dynamics CRM using email and social media campaigns to promote your product is as easy as 1,2,3. However, using CRM to keep your sales team laser-focused on all of your most important leads is not quite as simple. Through Microsoft CRM's customizable platform, sales people can build off of marketing's historic data to define predictors of a purchase decision. Each click through or download is tracked and reflected in the rating of the lead, so that once they hit the magic rating number, your sales team will know it's time to send your prospect a promotional offer that they just can't resist. What's better is Dynamics CRM automatically tracks these values and will send the designated email when the time comes so you don't have to worry. Serve your customers like never before with Dynamics CRM.
- Cover your Assets
No matter how unique your inventory processes may be, Dynamics CRM is able to give you the special solution you need to make it work. Stop making hazy estimates for placing orders and use Dynamics CRM to keep track of inventories. If a product isn't returned when needed, Microsoft CRM's innovative technology automatically sends an email requesting the missing item. Plan inventory needs for the entire year and allow for orders at much larger volumes to help you add value to your business process.
- Accept a Challenge
Customer contests are growing in popularity but can sometimes be more trouble than they're worth. Managing these customer engagement tools is time consuming, however CRM allows for automation to take the work out of your hands. Microsoft CRM has the customizable capabilities to be integrated with your organization's website so that you don't have to waste money developing your site for each and every contest. All data from your participants can be stored and analyzed within CRM so that users can fine tune contests to meet interests without spending a lot of time tracking information.
