eBook: The small business guide to customer relationship management (CRM).

Customer relationship management – usually referred to simply as CRM – is a key factor in any business, as it encompasses the system you use to handle all your interactions with existing and potential future clients and customers.

CRM tools help automate key tasks like managing customer records, tracking appointments, handling invoicing and sending timely reminders – all from one place. Many platforms also include email marketing tools that personalise content, trigger messages based on customer behaviour and streamline your communications.

Today’s CRM tools often include built-in scheduling, calendar integration and even smart automations that suggest or confirm appointments — making it easier to manage your time and meet customer expectations.

If you’re just starting to explore CRM or looking to improve how you manage customer relationships, this guide breaks down the essentials of customer relationship management for small business in a simple, practical way
