Chapter 1 :- Introduction
Data are becoming the new raw material of business….
– By Craig Mundie, Senior Advisor to the CEO at Microsoft
Engaging old Customers with Busines, Indirectly Increases
the Life of the business….. - Parv Poddar
In this Digital and E-Commerce Era, every business is doing as well as trying to do
their best to maintain customer relationship, Business Profitability, and
Advertisement as well. Maintaining Customer Relationship is a challenge now days;
if you are a business man and you are not able to engage your previous customer
they will not be loyal to you, they will shift towards new and better if any there. Any
activity which has the objective of earning profit is called business. Such activities .
are termed' as economic activities. They may take the form of consumption,
production, distribution or exchange. Its primary function is to transform a set of
inputs into output which includes both goods as well as services. The objective of a
firm carrying on business is the same i.e. to earn profit,The term 'environment' refers
to a set of external factors and forces which are outside the control of the firm. In
study of Masters there were 2 subjects which were Business Ethics and Business
Environment they give lesson towards the Roles and Importance of Business
towards society. The Analogy between them is quite satisfying and how it can be
used is further explained in this project, with real examples.
Business Ethics belongs to the branch of philosophy which deals with normative or
'what ought to be the norms of conduct.' Ethical concepts should essentially follow
the process of logical reasoning which includes conceptualizing, defending and
suggesting the norms of correct and incorrect behavior. Business ethics deals with
applied ethics which also includes individuals, societal and organizational values.
Ethics in business includes precepts, principles and practices in the conduct of
business. This is done specifically in view of the stakeholders namely shareholders,
employees, customers, creditors, suppliers, competitors, government, investors and
community, The code of conduct related to best practices in business emphasizes the
implication of ethics in business.
1.1 Concept of the Topic
The Focus mainly on the Customer Relationship Management CRM, Also known as
a client relationship manager, a customer relationship manager maintains an ongoing
level of engagement with key customers. Customer relationship managers build
trusting relationships with clients and protect the brand by maintaining a positive
image. customer relationship manager will constantly identify opportunities to grow
the customer base and build positive relationships with new clients. You should also
be strategic and analytical when finding solutions to problems to ensure maximum
client satisfaction.
To be successful as a customer relationship manager, one should possess excellent
communication skills and maintain the core values of the organization. You will
conduct quality assurance surveys to determine customer satisfaction and use the
findings to improve on areas of complaint. Ultimately, an outstanding customer
relationship manager will work closely with sales and accounts managers to ensure
that all staff preserves relationships with clients.
Customer Relationship Manager Responsibilities:
• Building and maintaining profitable relationships with key customers.
• Overseeing the relationship with customers handled by your team.
• Resolving customer complaints quickly and efficiently.
• Keeping customers updated on the latest products in order to increase sales.
• Meeting with managers in the organization to plan strategically.
• Expanding the customer base by upselling and cross-selling.
• Understanding key customer individual needs and addressing these.
• Conducting business reviews using CRM programs.
• Knowing your competition and strategizing accordingly.
Need and Importance of CRM:
• Better service to customers: ...
• Customization of market offerings: ...
• Reduction in the customer defection rate: ...
• Increase and improvement in long-term relationships: ...
• Increase in customer equity: ...
• Competitive advantage: ...
• Building and maintaining corporate image: ...
• Higher return on investment
The Project consist comparisons between Gift shops from Sambalpur, Jharsuguda,
and Rourkela, the shop were chosen on basis of Google Map Review according to
search, upon them questions regarding Ethics and Environment were asked, there is
no advance tool or process is used just normal comparisons on based of answers we
got from the business itself.
Topic chosen for deeper understanding of Customer Relationship and various
factors influencing the customer to transfer / visit another shop, Gift shop was chosen
because it is a service with interact with customer over a long period of time until
the gift is being ready.
In other business for example : Electronics, Food Items, Necessities Retail or
wholesale shops all have their product to sell as quick the customer arrives, but in
gift shop this is isn’t the case there is interactions with the shopkeeper until and
unless the work is being done or achieved.
The ultimate Task and Concept was to see how each business has their own
perspective towards the society and what kind of ethics they do follow in the real
competitive market to get a push in the position as well recommendation, the
customer point in past as compare to present the digital era has been increased
significantly as previously there wasn’t any platform for the customer to give
feedback on a global scale about the business, and of which the exploitation and
arbitrary actions was taken by the shopkeepers without in the knowledge of the
society but now with the beginning of the Digital Era – Internet world we have
multiple platforms where business are getting multiple number of feedbacks and
their quality of service.
Giving my own example for further clear and clean view of platforms like Google
Maps, Just dial, Facebook, Amazon, Flipkart, India mart and many more and more
are there upon which the choice is totally depend upon the customer in which of
them he/she is comfortable and think are reliable sources and the information is
checked and verified. Also the business must be registered on the particular website
or portal to have numbers of reviews.
1.2 Scope of the Study
Traditionally and essentially CRM is management software for sales, marketing and
customer service teams as they are the major touch points for any customer Relation
strategy.
1. CRM for sales management
• Salesforce and pipeline management
• Lead, contact and prospect management
2. CRM for marketing
• Product Awarness campaign management
• Database management
• Social media engagement
3. CRM for customer service
• Customer service and contact management
• Promotion Stuffs
• Social listening integration
As there are numbers of shops are there which provide all services or many not
provide, may or may not be registered or may or may not be selling online, there
also is probability of that there may be no customer who has not reviewed but the
business is at a good position comparable to its competitors, thus from many reasons
the Covid – 19 Pandemic is also responsible to make the scope of study to a limited
ground and area, in my case the projected is sole limited to 3 districts only.
But this kind of project need a great detail and unlimited scope as the business also
affected by a number of reasons to be success or failure, in this case whole western
Odisha is also not counted because in some districts there were no shops and even if
there was any it was not in competition to had any chances of question or chances
of improving their performance with due respect of time, changes come always to
those are a where there is a need of competition or challenged, without both of them
whether it’s a person or business ( which is also refereed as Artificial Person in
Commerce ) can’t improve their performance.
Being having limited scope for study, this report or project cannot satisfy in all
aspects of our county or our state but taking accordance with the limited districts
only one can satisfy with it, study provide certain minute details and real life tactics
to have a good control over the business and help to analyzing the environment also.
This business project benefit to young entrepreneurs who are going to or willing to
start contribution in our economy through going in Business field, as with my
knowledge and lessons I have till now I can say a very famous dialogue in context
of what knowledge will you get from is the dialogue is
“A Car never wins a Race, It’s the Driver who make it win..“
In Simple words the Business is neither good nor bad, neither profitable nor not
profitable, its solely depends upon the business man and he is only responsible
whether business is working out or not working out, one cannot blame customers,
places or any other materialist things.
This Survey will also help in
• During this Covid-19 Pandemic it will led to know what is CRM and How to
maintain, implement and Ensure.
• Will Definitely help new and existing start up to know the meaning of CRM
and know the importance.
• This will also Help in Consumer Survey as it will work as a base for CRM.

different views.
5) Even though there was nothing sensitive data required from them, still some
denied helping due to digital hacking, Virus, and misusing of information, for
which necessary action like disclaimer was given.
6) Counter Questions cannot be done through telephonic conversation as it may
lead to arguments and conflicts over call.
7) Even though in amid of Covid Pandemic and Lockdown all over the state no
was ready to help in context of giving time for telephonic conversation neither
filling up the survey, which was given to them in return for a Participation
certificate as lollypop
8) Finding a Gift shop was a real challenge as there were many who were not
registered but due to baseless there shop would not be qualified for this project

marketing, selling and service functions of businesses. This equates
CRM with technology. Although the market for CRM software is now
populated with many players,The term portfolio is often used in the
context of investments to describe the collection of assets owned by an

A customer portfolio is the collection of mutually exclusive customer
groups that comprise a business’s entire customer base.The core
customer lifecycle management processes are the customer acquisition,
customer development and customer retention processes. These three

Objective
1) conduct herein a critical analysis of how artificial intelligence (AI)
affects the essential nature of customer relationship management (CRM).
2) survey the AI capabilities that will transform CRM into AI-CRM and
examine how the transformation will influence customer acquisition,
development, and retention.
3) Highlight in particular how AI-CRM's improving ability to predict
customer lifetime value
Methodology Quantification and digitalization trends, Larger CRM datasets
Summary
Given AI's aforementioned abilities, we consider outcomes for customers,
firms, and markets in general, starting with customers. Indeed, many
customers may enjoy enhanced personal service, the benefit likely to
become less costly as technology enables firms to replace humans in an
increasing number of service jobs. However, as follows from the previous
discussion on selective acquisition, development, and retention, AI-CRM
is not likely to deliver such benefits equally to all consumers. We next
elaborate on the reasons therefore.

Strength in Numbers: How Does Data-Driven Decision making Affect
Firm Performance?
Author Erik Brynjolfsson, Lorin M. Hitt
Objective
1) measure of the use of “data-driven decision making” (DDD)
2) captures business practices surrounding the collection and analysis of
external and internal data
Methodology
Combining measures of this construct captured in a survey,Analysis of
financial performance and market value
Summary
Case literature and economic theory suggest a potential connection
between data driven decision making and productivity. By analyzing a
large sample of firms, we find that DDD is indeed associated with higher
productivity and market value, and that there some evidence that DDD is
associated with certain measures of profitability (ROE, asset utilization).
Our results are consistent with different measures of our IT variable and
changes in the time period of the panel. In the productivity estimation, it
appears to be robust to the use of instrumental variables methods to
control for reverse causality or other forms of endogeneity. Collectively,
our results suggest that DDD capabilities can be modeled as intangible
assets which are valued by investors and which increase output and
profitability.

Impact of Celebrity Endorsements on Brand Image.
Author Debiprasad Mukherjee
Objective
1) To analyze the impact of celebrity endorsements on brands.
2) To examine the relationship between celebrity endorsements and
brands.
3) Impact of celebrity endorsement on consumer's buying behavior.
4) How consumer makes brand preferences.
Methodology
Questionnaire based sample analysis, Interviews over phone & face to

Summary
It is easy to choose a celebrity but it is tough to establish a strong
association between the product and the endorser. Advertising is seen as
playing a manipulative and merciless role in the emerging brandscape,
seeking to transform customers into the personification of brand identity.
Keller emphasizes the need for a structured approach based on sound
research in order to manage brands strategically and to generate optimum
value both in terms of asset valuation and marketing efficiency. To
achieve this effectively, value for the brand has to be created and
managers must have the knowledge and expertise to exploit this value by
developing profitable brand strategies. Overall research points to
accumulated positive influence over the audience's recall and purchase
intentions, with celebrities deemed more effective than using a typical
consumer or expert.

different rating methodologies. This allows us to separate the difference
between ratings into the components scope, measurement, and weights

Methodology Analysis of sources of revenue in their financial reports
Summary
results will be useful to several different kinds of readers. First, they can
help researchers systematically analyze changes over time in the business
models of individual firms and whole populations of firms. Second,
managers can use our business model concepts to understand at a deeper
level the structural choices they have to make about their own firms’
business models and how to manage these different business models
effectively. Finally, our framework can provide investors with a useful
lens for analyzing potential investments. Unlike well known concepts
such as industry classification, this perspective focuses on the deep
structure of what firms actually do. And, since this perspective is not yet
well-known, it may lead to novel insights about which investment
opportunities are most attractive.

Summary
Customer lifetime value is receiving increasing attention in marketing,
especially in database marketing. In this article, we attempt to show that
the concept not only is important for tactical decisions but also can
provide a useful metric to assess the overall value of a firm. The
underlying premise of our model is that customers are important
intangible assets of a firm, and their value should be measured and
managed as is any other asset. Our article builds on recent work in
marketing in the area of customer lifetime value by extending it to the
arena of financial valuation. We also build on recent work in accounting
in which the approach has been to regress current market value of a firm
against tangible and intangible assets.

A STUDY ON CUSTOMER SATISFACTION & SERVICE GAPS IN
SELECTED PRIVATE, PUBLIC & FOREIGN BANKS
Author Prasanta K. Padhy
Objective
1) To understand and analyze the dimensions of the awareness and
satisfaction level of customers with regard to the services provided by the
selected branches of the three of the three major banking segments
i.e.,Private,Public & Foreign banks,
2) To identify and differentiate the best banking sector among the above
cited three banks in terms of customer satisfaction,
3) To ascertain the relevant dimensions of service quality in banks, and,
4) To offer suggestions, if needed, based on the analytical results of the
current study.
Methodology
SERVQUAL measuring instrument developed by Parsuraman et al.
(1988) was adapted and used for the this study.
Summary
The results of the this study also indicated that foreign banks seem to be
performing well followed by private sector banks and public sector banks.
Thus, the study has established that the technological factors seem to be
the differentiating factor among the three groups of banks as far as
customer perceptions of service quality are concerned. The finding of the
present study highlights the unstable nature of these facets in developing
economies, which may not be true in developed economies. Therefore
there is a need to duplicate this study in developed economics as well.

Performance in Service Marketing from Philosophy to Customer
Relationship Management
Author Prof. Victor Danciu, Ph. D.
Objective
customer management should take into account the relationship character
of the service marketing. The focus on retaining actual customers
Methodology Book References
Summary
Retain all the profitable customers is elementary. Managing toward zero
defections is revolutionary / imaginary. It requires careful definition of
defection, information systems that can measure results over time in
comparison with competitors, and a clear understanding of the
microeconomics of defection. Ultimately, defections should be a
fundamental component of incentive systems. Managers should know the
company’s defection rate, what happens to profits when the rate moves
up and down, and why defections occur. They should make sure the entire
organization understand the importance of keeping customers and
encourage employees to pursue zero defections by trying incentives,
planning, and budgeting to defections targets. Most important, managers
should use defections as a vehicle for continuously improving the quality
and value of the services they provide to customers.

Is it Worth the While? The Relevance of Qualitative Information in Credit
Rating
Author Bina Lehmann
Objective
to predict as accurately as possible whether a credit event (delayed
payments or any other breach of contract) occurs for a certain credit
relationship within a certain period of time in the future.
Methodology
Extensive research - research was usually based on publicly available
information such as insolvencies & financial ratios from annual reports
Summary
To evaluate the classification performance of the models, three different
types of measures will be looked at: the well-known and routinely used
measures that are based on a single contingency table and, thus, on a
single threshold; ROC-based measures that do not imply a single
Threshold but cover the whole range of thresholds and one measure based
on the difference between predicted default probabilities and observed
outcomes.

Banner Advertising as a Customer Retention Tool in Customer
Relationship Management
Author
Puneet Manchanda, Jean-Pierre Dubé, Khim Yong Goh & Pradeep K.
Chintagunta
Objective role of banner advertising in a digital environment such as the Internet.
Methodology
field surveys or laboratory experiments using individual (or cookie) level
data.
Summary
our results would have been richer if we had information on the actual
message contained in each advertisement and the identity of the referral
sites. Fourth, we do not have any knowledge of the other marketing
variables such as price and promotion during consumers’ purchase visits.
Finally, our targeting exercise would be more relevant if we had data on
the profit per customer and not just revenue per customer. These
limitations may be addressed in future research by running formal field
experiments or by obtaining richer datasets that provide natural variation
on these dimensions.

Social Customer Relationship Management (SCRM): How Connecting
Social Analytics to Business Analytics Enhances Customer Care and
Loyalty?
Author Mohammed Nadeem, PhD
Objective
1) This study examined the relationship between SM, customer care and
customer loyalty. Marketers are working in challenging times.
2) To explore how engaging customers through social communities are
having far-reaching effects on customer loyalty.
Methodology
Research is built on previous works of Hutton and Fosdick (2011); Ang
(2011); Baird and Parasnis (2011); Valentini et al (2011); Woodcock et
al (2011); Barry et al, (2011); Moran and Gossieaux (2010); Barnes
(2009)
Summary
Many companies today have social efforts siloed across functions.
Leaders align their organizations to more effectively coordinate and
communicate. Companies must make it a priority to increase the number
of their promoters and shrink the number of their detractors, discovering
and investing behind the actions that improve the company’s NPS in ways
that are financially sound and that will result in profitable, sustainable,
organic growth. Once a company has linked its approach to business
strategy and targeted its key customers, it needs to put in place an
organization to follow through—an organization that’s designed to enable
coordination and share best practices. Winning companies mobilize
cross-functional teams spanning marketing, sales, public relations,
corporate strategy, customer service, product development, IT, HR and
legal.

ADOPTED BY INDIGO AIRLINES
Author Sonam Jambhulkar
Objective
1) To identify and analyze the customer relationship activities taken by
indigo airlines for customers.
2) To analyze the impact of CRM activities of Indigo Airlines on
customers.
3) To give suggestions and recommendation as to improve the customer
relationship activities.
Methodology data of primary and secondary in nature
Summary
CRM systems should be used differently in major airlines and low-cost
airlines. In major airlines they should promote customers with better
offers that compromise with cost-effect market needs and in low-cost
airlines CRM systems should be used to enhance service delivery, service
quality and better accuracy.CRM activities hold a very important role in
growth of any business. It focuses on acquisition, retention and expansion
of customer base. In the study of CRM practices of Indigo airlines it can
be seen that the target market is middle class, which is cost sensitive,
therefore all the activities taken up by the airlines is a way to increase the
customer base and retain the existing customer through cost effective
measures.

Chapter 4 :- Empirical Analysis
The Main Analysis were based on the questions asked over the call they played a
major role in project, through questionnaire one can get the required data but not
exact data, as no one speaks about itself and business truthfully, there may be some
but we cannot assure all are correct thus there was a huge for telephonic
Conversation, I am also a part of gifting industry It was a major challenge for me to
find out the required data and information, without letting them know who I am
actually, being a tough competitor to them I have maintain the balance no focusing
more over my business, as every business man will try to make their business good,
apart from business mindset and keeping it aside I have made this project considering
all Questions and all reports in true and fair manner.
The Telephonic Conversation Questions and Primary replies from them were are as
below :
-
1) Where is your shop located in ?
This question is led down because gift shop location play a major and crucial
role in selling as well as achieving target, as gift shop interact with public as
more as they can, thus to build a healthy customer base as wee as relationship
it quite important to operate from such a place where crowd is more, targeted
audience is more, for example the number of Ice Cream Sellers will be more
near schools coaching rather than near to banks, petrol pump or restaurant,
Consolidating all the Answer of all 3 persons there was no benefit or nothing
was there to influence their business and increase their potential to sell more
and more.
2) How much order you get in a month on an average?
The Answer has to be similar with the above question as they are not enjoying
any privilege due to place thus it should be common only, the reality may be
different according to consolidated figures they said about 20-50.
3) Are you part of / joined any communal, religious, cultural activity group ?
Consolidated most of the Answers were no they are not, even may be they are
part of they will not tell as it’s a very very sensitive question but the reaction
and the traditional method shows who ever hold a franchise of a particular
brand get and has a helping support from them. I was going to be a part of but
due to this pandemic all assumptions, planning got cancelled, as a business
man and being a student of commerce I had made a Flexible plan but with
due decrease in no of order, distracted me.
4) Do Society help you getting orders ?
Some Business are close to each other and where a symbiotic relationship can
be made example : Cake Shop and Gift Shop, and etc, Thus its not so often
that one will get orders from other manufacturers BUT making a good
relationship with customers can make wonders they can help you in getting
orders if they are satisfied enough.
Consolidated Answers of rest of three were no.
5) What you do for society, any special discount anything like that.?
Being fair enough, Consolidated answer were no they do not do anything
special but do provide coupons or discounts on festival sales, not off season.
BUT Sapno Ka Tofaa has this unique ability is that , We contribute to society
with making banner for all festivals and popular days amongst every religion,
gender, race, group and do provide discount only to our previous customers
only who had purchased items more than 1000-1500.
6) What changes you have made in your business after analysis / Seeing your
society ?
Consolidated Answer :- According to preferences and needs the content of
bucket is always changing in nature, as with the trend the needs and desire of
the person is changed, All were speaking they have increase the number of
items that were sold previously with a rapid sells, but from my point its not
for a business to carried same product because as all they have it then no one
will buy them for now.
7) What Ethics you follow in your business ?
The meaning behind this question was to see “ what if a person found
defective or by mistake the shopkeeper or seller haven’t seen it” –
Consolidating some said they will exchange if it’s in a certain range and type
of product, some said only if he/she is a old customer, though they check and
give,
BUT in Sapno ka Tofaa, as we are selling products all over India thus many
items it has happened to us , for this kind of issue we made a video opening
solution with all details, and before giving to customer we though saw them
and do whatever has to be done
8) Do you respect Customer privacy ?
This kind of ethical question require a physical interrogation or live testing as
one always will say yes do follow, looking to there social media and all things,
Consolidated Data show they neither ask customer nor they inform they just
put them, In Sapno Ka Tofaa, customer come from very far places contact us
for due reason, we never share the picture of one customer with other customer
or anyone, if we have done a fabulous work, we do ask the customer to post
or not, with due respect then only we post them over internet.
9) Situation Based Questionnaire
“What if, Customer want a product and want you to send it through delivery
what if it get broken, what responsibility you ready to take ”
Consolidated Answer from 2 of them were, as its not our responsibility if in
the way whatever is done, and 1 of them told I will assure with a good packing
and ask the delivery companies how it going to be, safe or not.

Chapter 5 :- Findings & Suggestion
Findings
Analyzing the whole report, and business we found that following points :-
1) Customer Satisfaction and Need for Customer Relation between Business and
Customer play an important role over Life of Business, : Customer needed to
be satisfied not only with the product – Quality, Attributes, Pricing but also
with the Quality of Service.
2) Customer Satisfaction led to development of business, : If A Customer will

and vice versa the more promotion he/she can do to any business.

5) Customer is the God of business, a business without any loyal customer is a
path toward loss / Debt : Unworthy, Incapable, and unable to make a regular
customer will be a burden as no regular customer the more will be time taking
to find a customer, loosing time in business means loosing time to upgrade it
and difficult to churn, for getting Cream.
6) Customer influences others to be your customer, : Influencing the customer is
the business man and making them to find customer in your behalf the sole
objective of the CRM, business man cannot go everywhere where as customer
can
7) Treat your Customer as if he is the business man, and one should convince
him why she/he should choose you amongst your competitor for any desired
product. : If you are not in competition, no one will be your customer, to get
customer you should know the tactics, methods, technique of the present
competitors to go for a cut throat competition.
Future Impact of Customer Relationship Management :
1) Without Customer Relationship Management one cannot make a loyal,
healthy and regular customer : Must corporate, influence, offer customer to
make them thinking of your business time to time, this will enhance your
CRM.
2) Banks, Hospitals, Software Companies, Courier / Transportation Companies,
Medical Pharma industry, Schools and Colleges are adopting the CRM policy
and Getting J curve in their Business, : J Curve means how to grow a business
from least profits to high one and get the benefit
3) Environment – Companies do CSR – Corporate Social Responsibility which
not only enhances the company but also make their same as customer should
develop ISR Individual Social Responsibility towards the society and their
Customer,
4) The more will be the Customer Satisfaction the more will be chances of
getting a new customer, : Customer provide free promotions if served well

5) Customer are not born, they have to be made, : No person will become
customer unless they get the desire of the product you are selling so creating
desire though will make customer

will guide business man to emphasize more on customer indirectly more
customers are the future of the business.
7) Loss of a Customer is a Loss of Business. : :Losing a single customer due to
lack of recourse, commitments, or quality of either product or service will cost
as a loss to business directly.
Suggestion
Improve Customer Relations :-
1) You should Indulging then and including them into business by sharing the
business with them create a bond between business and customer. : example
knowing their choices, financial spending capability, Background, what
purchased previously and so on will connect you to them.
2) Using the Latest Technical know how :. Example Using Facebook, Google
and other platforms to promote and catch customers from there, online digital
marketing.
3) Giving coupons, promotional messages or discount for those who already is
part of business. : Making them involving / participating in giveaways for your
business stuffs and creating a fan base with your unique products.
4) Product Awareness Programs, : Generate a product awareness program will
lead to directly and indirectly promotion of product and increase the number
of leads
5) Comparison with Cheap items should not be done : Cheap Market (China)
goods must be ignored and Made in India Approach should be follow thus to
increase the number of customer, create a social ethics towards it, as every
citizen has the patriotism towards its country use it well,
6) First Use it then Sell it approach : Using the product will led you know its
advantages and disadvantages thus you can manage the conversation with
your customer regarding it.
7) Marketing with influencers : Influencers has a good audience base use that
audience for promoting your items and it will help you reaching more and
more people at a time.
8) Promoting Business not the Product : Never promote your product it will lead
to duplication where as promoting business is easy task but duplication of
business cannot be done without experience.
9) Advertisement attract competitors not customers : Never make an
advertisement of an unique item or product you have always make focus on
general product with 10-20% uniqueness thus only to attract not to attack
Chapter 6 :- Conclusion
I have compared my business along with those who are nearby my cities and have a
top most score in their cities, on the basis of Customer Relationship Management,
the focus and the purpose was to check what are the implications led by a customers
on a particular business, Being a Responsible Business owner and Franchise Owner,
I come to conclusion that, there are 90% of the business who don’t know the value
of the customer in their business and may lead to a derogative rating in next view
years as well as lack of customer base, I have putted all the information being neutral
to all the business as this report will not fetch me customers,
Solution of the situation is to Educate them and Help in knowing implications
of the customers and how to create a bonding, Being a Member of Dr. Vivek Bindra,
He is the best in field to guide, there is a lack of government indulgence in this
matter, The MSME portal should take some steps to make understand the crucial
bond.

  • 6. Data are becoming the new raw material of business…. – By Craig Mundie, Senior Advisor to the CEO at Microsoft Engaging old Customers with Busines, Indirectly Increases the Life of the business….. - Parv Poddar In this Digital and E-Commerce Era, every business is doing as well as trying to do their best to maintain customer relationship, Business Profitability, and Advertisement as well. Maintaining Customer Relationship is a challenge now days; if you are a business man and you are not able to engage your previous customer they will not be loyal to you, they will shift towards new and better if any there. Any activity which has the objective of earning profit is called business. Such activities . are termed' as economic activities. They may take the form of consumption, production, distribution or exchange. Its primary function is to transform a set of inputs into output which includes both goods as well as services. The objective of a firm carrying on business is the same i.e. to earn profit,The term 'environment' refers to a set of external factors and forces which are outside the control of the firm. In study of Masters there were 2 subjects which were Business Ethics and Business Environment they give lesson towards the Roles and Importance of Business towards society. The Analogy between them is quite satisfying and how it can be used is further explained in this project, with real examples. Business Ethics belongs to the branch of philosophy which deals with normative or 'what ought to be the norms of conduct.' Ethical concepts should essentially follow the process of logical reasoning which includes conceptualizing, defending and suggesting the norms of correct and incorrect behavior. Business ethics deals with applied ethics which also includes individuals, societal and organizational values. Ethics in business includes precepts, principles and practices in the conduct of business. This is done specifically in view of the stakeholders namely shareholders, employees, customers, creditors, suppliers, competitors, government, investors and community, The code of conduct related to best practices in business emphasizes the implication of ethics in business. 1.1 Concept of the Topic
  • 7. The Focus mainly on the Customer Relationship Management CRM, Also known as a client relationship manager, a customer relationship manager maintains an ongoing level of engagement with key customers. Customer relationship managers build trusting relationships with clients and protect the brand by maintaining a positive image. customer relationship manager will constantly identify opportunities to grow the customer base and build positive relationships with new clients. You should also be strategic and analytical when finding solutions to problems to ensure maximum client satisfaction. To be successful as a customer relationship manager, one should possess excellent communication skills and maintain the core values of the organization. You will conduct quality assurance surveys to determine customer satisfaction and use the findings to improve on areas of complaint. Ultimately, an outstanding customer relationship manager will work closely with sales and accounts managers to ensure that all staff preserves relationships with clients. Customer Relationship Manager Responsibilities: • Building and maintaining profitable relationships with key customers. • Overseeing the relationship with customers handled by your team. • Resolving customer complaints quickly and efficiently. • Keeping customers updated on the latest products in order to increase sales. • Meeting with managers in the organization to plan strategically. • Expanding the customer base by upselling and cross-selling. • Understanding key customer individual needs and addressing these. • Conducting business reviews using CRM programs. • Knowing your competition and strategizing accordingly. Need and Importance of CRM: • Better service to customers: ... • Customization of market offerings: ... • Reduction in the customer defection rate: ... • Increase and improvement in long-term relationships: ... • Increase in customer equity: ... • Competitive advantage: ... • Building and maintaining corporate image: ...
  • 8. • Higher return on investment The Project consist comparisons between Gift shops from Sambalpur, Jharsuguda, and Rourkela, the shop were chosen on basis of Google Map Review according to search, upon them questions regarding Ethics and Environment were asked, there is no advance tool or process is used just normal comparisons on based of answers we got from the business itself. Topic chosen for deeper understanding of Customer Relationship and various factors influencing the customer to transfer / visit another shop, Gift shop was chosen because it is a service with interact with customer over a long period of time until the gift is being ready. In other business for example : Electronics, Food Items, Necessities Retail or wholesale shops all have their product to sell as quick the customer arrives, but in gift shop this is isn’t the case there is interactions with the shopkeeper until and unless the work is being done or achieved. The ultimate Task and Concept was to see how each business has their own perspective towards the society and what kind of ethics they do follow in the real competitive market to get a push in the position as well recommendation, the customer point in past as compare to present the digital era has been increased significantly as previously there wasn’t any platform for the customer to give feedback on a global scale about the business, and of which the exploitation and arbitrary actions was taken by the shopkeepers without in the knowledge of the society but now with the beginning of the Digital Era – Internet world we have multiple platforms where business are getting multiple number of feedbacks and their quality of service. Giving my own example for further clear and clean view of platforms like Google Maps, Just dial, Facebook, Amazon, Flipkart, India mart and many more and more are there upon which the choice is totally depend upon the customer in which of them he/she is comfortable and think are reliable sources and the information is checked and verified. Also the business must be registered on the particular website or portal to have numbers of reviews. 1.2 Scope of the Study
  • 9. Traditionally and essentially CRM is management software for sales, marketing and customer service teams as they are the major touch points for any customer Relation strategy. 1. CRM for sales management • Salesforce and pipeline management • Lead, contact and prospect management 2. CRM for marketing • Product Awarness campaign management • Database management • Social media engagement 3. CRM for customer service • Customer service and contact management • Promotion Stuffs • Social listening integration As there are numbers of shops are there which provide all services or many not provide, may or may not be registered or may or may not be selling online, there also is probability of that there may be no customer who has not reviewed but the business is at a good position comparable to its competitors, thus from many reasons the Covid – 19 Pandemic is also responsible to make the scope of study to a limited ground and area, in my case the projected is sole limited to 3 districts only. But this kind of project need a great detail and unlimited scope as the business also affected by a number of reasons to be success or failure, in this case whole western Odisha is also not counted because in some districts there were no shops and even if there was any it was not in competition to had any chances of question or chances of improving their performance with due respect of time, changes come always to those are a where there is a need of competition or challenged, without both of them whether it’s a person or business ( which is also refereed as Artificial Person in Commerce ) can’t improve their performance. Being having limited scope for study, this report or project cannot satisfy in all aspects of our county or our state but taking accordance with the limited districts only one can satisfy with it, study provide certain minute details and real life tactics to have a good control over the business and help to analyzing the environment also.
  • 10. This business project benefit to young entrepreneurs who are going to or willing to start contribution in our economy through going in Business field, as with my knowledge and lessons I have till now I can say a very famous dialogue in context of what knowledge will you get from is the dialogue is “A Car never wins a Race, It’s the Driver who make it win..“ In Simple words the Business is neither good nor bad, neither profitable nor not profitable, its solely depends upon the business man and he is only responsible whether business is working out or not working out, one cannot blame customers, places or any other materialist things. This Survey will also help in • During this Covid-19 Pandemic it will led to know what is CRM and How to maintain, implement and Ensure. • Will Definitely help new and existing start up to know the meaning of CRM and know the importance. • This will also Help in Consumer Survey as it will work as a base for CRM. 1.3 Limitation of the Study
  • 11. The limitations are in following points :- 1) There was Limitation of access to the cities of whom the businesses are taken into consideration. 2) Lack of Ground Level investigation. 3) Lack of evidence. 4) Ethical Question answered cannot be challenge but can be questionable on different views. 5) Even though there was nothing sensitive data required from them, still some denied helping due to digital hacking, Virus, and misusing of information, for which necessary action like disclaimer was given. 6) Counter Questions cannot be done through telephonic conversation as it may lead to arguments and conflicts over call. 7) Even though in amid of Covid Pandemic and Lockdown all over the state no was ready to help in context of giving time for telephonic conversation neither filling up the survey, which was given to them in return for a Participation certificate as lollypop 8) Finding a Gift shop was a real challenge as there were many who were not registered but due to baseless there shop would not be qualified for this project 1.4 Sources of Data The Sources of Data were primary and secondary both as well, Due to pandemic only the project is quasi Primary Data based and even the base is taken from the secondary data ( Google Maps Review ). 1.5 Methodology There has been Questionnaire method, Telephonic Questionnaire and Graphical Representation is used during any activity of the project, it based on common sense comparison only and hence can be used or understand by anyone. 1.6 Chapterisation

  • 13. Chapter 2 :- Literature Review "Your most unhappy customers are your greatest source of learning." - Bill Gates - Amanda Austin
  • 14. Chapter 2.1 :- Introduction to the Customer Relationship Management Customer relationship management (CRM) first gained prominence in the early 1990s.

They should make sure the entire organization understand the importance of keeping customers and encourage employees to pursue zero defections by trying incentives, planning, and budgeting to defections targets.
