Forrester’s definition of CRM
Forrester defines CRM as the set of business
processes and supporting technologies used to
acquire, retain, and enhance customer relationships.
CRM encompasses the activities organizations use to
understand, target, deliver, and respond to customers
across marketing, sales, and service, as well as
among external demand chain partners.
