IBM-Siebel: Enterprise CRM Solutions
Agency: Ogilvy
Business Context:
Among 60 global companies surveyed, by Forrester, on ‘customer relationship strategy’, 63% of the companies did not know if they shared a customer with another division. 57% of the companies did not offer a better service to their more profitable customers.
Insight:
Growing realization that CRM solutions need to be evaluated and integrated in the context of an overall business strategy across the enterprise, and should not be seen as a modular component that can be tacked on to marketing, sales or customer service functions.
​
Creative Idea:​
The customer no longer revolves around the company; the company revolves around the customer.
NOTE: due to complexity and low awareness of CRM solutions, and because we had to reach multiple audiences across the private and public sectors, we executed the campaign in three parts.
​

Actual sales and other performance numbers are confidential but the campaign outperformed expectations:
-
