Why your CRM is an important tool
Description
We unpack why most CRMs underperform and show how to turn yours into a real sales engine. From clean data and reminders to cross‑team handoffs and a simple scoreboard, we share the habits that shorten cycles and raise conversion.
• defining what a CRM should deliver for sales and retention
• building clean, consistent data with required fields
• using reminders to safeguard follow‑ups and timing
• writing short, useful call notes with clear next steps
• enabling seamless handovers between sales and service
• tracking weekly inputs and conversion rates as a scoreboard
• motivating team adoption through benefits and training
• using real client outcomes to refine marketing messages
• pruning low‑value accounts and focusing attention
• using the CRM as a single source of truth
