What is Social CRM?
“Social CRM is a philosophy and a business strategy, supported by a
technology platform, business rules, processes and social characteristics,
designed to engage the customer in a collaborative conversation in order to provide mutually beneficial value in a
trusted and transparent business environment.”
It is the company's programmatic response to the customer's control of
the conversation.”
Paul Greenberg
