availability of information in an aggregated and organized way
provide real-time intelligence to customers, not just the
enterprise.

and their demands so empowered that a Social CRM strategy must be

response to the customer's control of the conversation that makes
Social CRM work.

Fourth Edition," reveals best practices for a successful Social CRM
implementation. Greenberg explains how this new paradigm involves
the customer in a synergetic discussion to provide mutually
beneficial value in a trusted and transparent business
environment.

by cutting-edge companies, along with expert guidance on how your
