Recenzje

'In the fifth edition, Prior, Buttle and Maklan take what was already THE reference book for Customer Relationship Management to the next level, providing a highly contemporary and deeply pragmatic view of how to create value with CRM today and tomorrow.' Ross Dawson, futurist, keynote speaker, strategy advisor, and author of 5 books including Thriving on Overload

'Completely updated, this remains absolutely the best exposition of customer relationship management. Can’t think of a better guide to increasing your performance and profits. This book belongs on the desk of every company that is serious about CRM. The wealth of information and insight is astonishing.' Professor Philip Kotler, S.C. Johnson Distinguished Professor of International Marketing, Kellogg School of Management, Northwestern University, USA

'The great thing about this book is that the authors keep it updated. Students get that rare combination of a comprehensive guide to theory, the injection of practical experience and the latest thinking on strategy, technology, and applications.' Dr. Merlin Stone, Professor of Marketing and Strategy (retd.), St Mary’s University, Twickenham, UK, and co-author Customer Relationship Marketing: New Thinking, New Strategy, New Tools

'This book is a complete guide to Customer Relationship Management. Of course, it covers the basics of CRM including Strategic CRM, Operational CRM and Analytical CRM, but the enriched fifth edition also explores cutting edge issues such as Artificial Intelligence, bots, Big Data, analytics for unstructured data, and how these impact on customer experience. This is a must-have book for everyone wanting to learn about CRM.'  Aina Neva Fiati, Managing Director, iSystem Asia – Customer Strategy Excellence Center, Jakarta, Indonesia

'At last, a serious manual for delivering what CRM always promised but generally failed to deliver. It is not, however, for the faint-hearted, but only for those who are serious about creating a holistic and unified organizational environment to create and deliver value to customers, and to keep them coming back for more.' Jeremy Cox, Founder and Chief Analyst, CX-Create Ltd., UK, and author of Mid-Market CRM: Customer Relationship Excellence in Mid-Sized Enterprises

'The pressure to create excellent customer experience has intensified considerably over the past few years because of the challenges of our evolving digital economy. Directors are desperate for robust, proven processes to be embedded in their organisations. Daniel Prior, Stan Maklan and Francis Buttle are outstanding researchers, teachers and experienced practitioners in the CRM/Customer Experience domains, and I urge you to take time to read this state-of-the-art book on this topic. Absorb. Apply. Achieve.' Professor Malcolm McDonald, MA(Oxon), MSc, PhD, DLitt, DSc., Emeritus Professor at Cranfield University and Visiting Professor at five of the top Business Schools in the UK. Formerly Marketing and Sales Director of Canada Dry

'An excellent insight into how CRM really works. I’ve used previous editions for my teaching as the book really helps students to understand CRM. I also use it with my clients, and they have been amazed at the difference that it has made to their businesses. It really helps them to develop critical customer knowledge and from there, appropriate customer strategies. This new edition, with updated content and case examples, has moved understanding forward yet again and has become my new go-to for CRM.' Dr. Julie Jones, PhD, FCIM, Chartered Marketer, Aberystwyth Business School, Wales, UK

'A dynamic, strategic, practical and deeply relevant guide to creating and implementing a winning customer experience strategy. A must read.' Larry Hochman, European Business Speaker of the Year, Customer Experience expert and author of The Relationship Revolution
