sncr-sap Content summary: SNCR President Jen McClure and Vinay Iyer, vice president of SAP CRM Global Marketing, presented a breakout session, “Intro to Social CRM,” at NewComm Forum 2010 as part of the Social CRM track on Wednesday, April 21, 2010.

From the NewComm Forum session description:

There has been broad experimentation with social media channels by both B2B and B2C companies in the past few years. Today, companies are realizing that traditional customer engagement channels like call centers, web and partner channels are not going to go away anytime soon, while also trying to understand what bottom line impact social media channels can have, and how these new channels need to work with traditional models to deliver a consistent and superior customer experience. This has led to a new tool set and approach to customer relationship management – social CRM.

Social CRM has been defined as a philosophy and a business strategy. It involves a new Web 2.0-enabled technology platform, new business rules and workflow processes. Social CRM allows organizations to engage the customer in conversations that provide mutually beneficial value. Join conference host Jen McClure for a discussion with social CRM experts and learn how social CRM differs from traditional CRM, the new business models, the processes, the methodologies, the practices, and the technologies that are part of social CRM.

This session will discuss SAP’s experience in leveraging social media channels for customer and ecosystem engagement as part of an overall customer experience management strategy, and will explore ideas about what the future promises.

A special thanks to Michael Procopio for supplying the recording.
