Rationale In today's integration era, businesses are aware that no one other than customers is the one who brings them profits.
Therefore, the expansion of business products and services to meet the needs and expectations as well as maintain customer loyalty is being focused on more than ever. Building a Customer relationship management system with the aim of creating relationships with potential customer groups and maintaining sustainable relationships with existing customer groups as well as not only adding value to customers but also increasing profits for the enterprise, especially in the banking sector. Effective Customer Relationship Management (CRM), therefore, is considered as an organizational core competence in a highly competitive business environment. The development in information and communication technologies has shifted the digital delivery of products and services particularly affected the Retail Banking industry, given its sheer magnitude and importance.
Banks have realized that managing customer relationships management (CRM) is a very important factor for their success. Implementations of CRM to banking are still below these expectations as well as the number of unsuccessful projects are still relatively high and banks routinely miss chances to deepen loyalty and expand sales. In recent years, Customer Relationship Management has received exceedingly attention and has been researched to apply to banks in order to reduce costs, increase profits and improve business efficiency and competitiveness. Besides the opinions that the effectiveness of Customer Relationship Management activities will help banks gain new potential customers as well as maintaining the loyalty of existing customers, there are views that deny the need to create this system.
So what is Customer Relationship Management and is it really effective for Vietnamese commercial banks or more specifically, the situation of implementing Customer Relationship Management activities at Vietnam Prosperity Joint Stock Commercial Bank recently. Realizing the urgency, importance and high 1 applicability in practice from clarifying the above issue, the researcher decided to choose the topic Customer relationship management at Vietnam Prosperity Joint Stock Commercial Bank - Chương Dương branch to understand the practice of applying the customer relationship management process as well as make recommendations for Vietnam Prosperity Joint Stock Commercial Bank, Chương Dương branch. Literature review Customer relationship management activities have been built and developed by many businesses and banking industries in many countries around the world. In Vietnam, many commercial banks have focused on research and investment in customer relationship management activities.
The banking industry is increasingly competitive, requiring careful investment in customer management activities to make a difference, increase competition in the market, thereby attracting customers 2. Abroad Studies: According to Peppers and Roger(2004) Managing Customer Relationships: A Strategic Framework, they have shown that CRM is a management decision – making process with the ultimate goal of improving customer value in order to develop good relationships with them through customisation pace. Companies that implement CRM can make better relationships with their customers, improve customers‟ loyalty, increased revenue and reduced cost (Blery & Michalakopoulos, 2006). Peter Anabila & Dadson Awunyo-Vitor (2013) explains that in recent times, the relationship between CRM and customer loyalty was positive.
This is explained by the correlation analysis which showed a strong positive correlation between CRM and customer loyalty. Beerli, Martin, and Quintana (2004) affirms that as a result of the development world today most banks offer the same type of products and the core product is not the attribute that makes the customer loyal rather CRM programmes and the 2 manner in which they are implemented. Thus if banks want to improve the loyalty of their customers, they must improve the CRM practices of their banks. Customer Relationship Management Of Fayerman (2002); Marketing Management Philip Kotler (2003), also mentions and introduces customer research methods, customer relationships but has not yet concentrated on exploiting, chiefly on marketing strategies such as pricing strategy, product line strategy, distribution system, communication,.
However, this work does not comprehensively analyse customer relationship management and does not provide details about contents for implementing customer relationship management. According to previous information and authors, customer relationship management is currently seen as technology and by others as philosophy. Some authors believe that relationships should lead into economical profit; others believe relationships should lead into customer satisfaction and loyalty. This result should be supported by the three main parts of the CRM, and it is operational, collaborative and analytical.
There are two main questions concerning previous information. How could be currently defined CRM? What would be the areas that company should concentrate on to achieve that best-possible relationship with customers? 2.
