Using a CRM system is one of the most effective ways of improving the customer experience, a critical component for achieving success in business. Afterall, the way in which a customer experiences your brand impacts customer retention, lowers churn, increases customer satisfaction, boosts ROI and establishes engaging customer interactions and relationships.

This includes third party integrations with systems like MailChimp, SMS gateways, mail servers, and more, which provide an effortless way to send your customers regular emails or SMS’s automatically, be this in the form of marketing collateral for increased brand awareness, a newsletter informing them of new properties, an email inviting them to an event, personalised birthday or holiday wishes, and so forth. Choosing what marketing automation features to use to improve customer experience is entirely up to you and what you hope to achieve to ensure that your overall business objectives are met.
2. Personalised content tailored to customer segments

- Consumers still prefer brands to communicate via email with more than half (52.7%) of those surveyed in the U.S. checking their personal email account more than 10 times a day
- 27% stated that they wanted more content sent to them that is more personalized to their interests and preferences.

An innovative CRM system like Qobrix can generate several different reports to provide you with critical insights on your customers to be able market effectively to them. Qobrix can monitor which marketing campaigns generate the most enquiries for example, which helps you understand what information customers are looking for. In turn, this enables you to serve even more relevant content in future campaigns.
