ABSTRACT
Customer Relationship Management (CRM) has become an integral part of modern business
strategy, enhancing the interaction between organizations and their customers. This study
examines the impact of CRM on organizational performance, specifically focusing on Bitemore,
a company located in Mokola, Ibadan. The primary objective is to analyze how CRM practices
influence key performance indicators such as customer satisfaction, loyalty, and overall business
profitability.
This case study utilizes a mixed-method approach, combining quantitative data from customer
surveys and sales reports with qualitative insights from in-depth interviews with Bitemore’s
management and employees. The research explores various dimensions of CRM implementation,
including technology adoption, customer data management, and personalized marketing
strategies.
Initial findings indicate that effective CRM practices at Bitemore have led to significant
improvements in customer retention and satisfaction. The use of advanced CRM software has
enabled Bitemore to personalize customer interactions, thereby fostering stronger relationships
and increasing customer loyalty. Additionally, the analysis reveals that CRM contributes to more
efficient business processes, such as streamlined customer service operations and more targeted
marketing campaigns, which in turn boost organizational performance.
The study concludes that CRM is a critical driver of organizational success, particularly in
competitive markets. For Bitemore, the strategic use of CRM has not only enhanced customer
experiences but also provided a competitive edge in the marketplace. The findings suggest that
other organizations, especially those in similar sectors, could benefit from investing in
comprehensive CRM systems to improve their customer relationships and overall performance.
