The document discusses Customer Relationship Management (CRM) and Electronic Customer Relationship Management (E-CRM). CRM aims to optimize profitability through enhanced customer satisfaction by automating and enhancing customer-centric processes. E-CRM expands on traditional CRM by integrating electronic channels like web, wireless, and voice technologies. E-CRM provides avenues for business-customer-employee interactions through web technologies and combines software, hardware, and processes to support enterprise-wide CRM strategies. The goals of both CRM and E-CRM are to maximize revenue from existing customers, provide excellent service using integrated customer information, and introduce consistent channel processes to acquire, enhance, and retain profitable customers.
