A CRM system stores and organizes customer information, tracks communication, and supports sales and service workflows. It helps teams manage leads, monitor deals, log calls, and personalize outreach.
Businesses use CRM platforms to build stronger relationships, improve follow-ups, and increase customer lifetime value. Tools like Salesforce, HubSpot, and Zoho CRM centralize data and streamline communication across marketing, sales, and support teams.
A Customer Data Platform (CDP) unifies data from multiple touch-points, such as websites, apps, CRM systems, and support tools into a single, persistent customer profile.
Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC) measures how much a business spends to acquire one new customer, including marketing, sales, and sometimes onboarding expenses.
