Customer Focus Enhancement Programs continuously enhance the customer's perception of your credibility and total value.
Customer Relationship Management is not enough. The term itself implies controlling customers and limits focus to historical data and planned activities. While these are certainly essential, sales executives recognize the importance of helping customers anticipate needs and continuously enhancing the total value of the buyer/seller relationship. The rep with the most credibility wins.
