Detailed definition
The core role of a CRM is to systematise the journey from enquiry to opportunity to customer. Common CRMs: HubSpot (free starter plan; marketing, sales and service together), Pipedrive (sales-focused, simple), Salesforce (enterprise), Zoho (widely used in Türkiye). It matters most for businesses with long sales cycles and many enquiries to follow up (B2B, healthcare, real estate, education).
Examples
- A health tourism clinic's patient lead stages in Pipedrive: new → initial consultation → quote → appointment → surgery.
