Definition
CRM, or Customer Relationship Management, is a centralized system that tracks every interaction a business has with leads and customers — from first contact through sale and follow-up. It organizes contact data, manages sales pipelines, automates communication, and ensures no inquiry is lost, giving teams a single source of truth for the entire customer lifecycle.
