Customer Relationship Management
The major thing is, “One size fits all” is not true. CRM is designed to support the sales process, and if I develop a system that works in the United States, it might not work in Europe.

Challenge is to recognize and respond to national differences that influence the way information is obtained

Steps in the Research Process1. Identify the information requirement2. Define the problem3. Choose a unit of analysis4. Examine data availability5. Assess value of research6. Design the research7. Analyze the data8. Present the findings
![Page 16: Chapter 6 Global Management Information Systems and Marketing Research.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649f1c5503460f94c31ecc/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Step 1: Identifying the Information Requirement
What information do I need?Existing markets—customer needs already being served by one or more companies; information may be readily availablePotential markets• Latent market—an undiscovered market;
demand would be there if product was there• Incipient market—market will emerge as
macro environmental trends continue
Why do I need this information?

Special Considerations for Surveys
BenefitsData collection from a large sampleBoth quantitative and qualitative data possibleCan be self-administered
IssuesSubjects may not want to answer or intentionally give inaccurate responseTranslation may be difficult
• Use back and parallel translations to ensure accuracy and validity

Enhancing Comparability of Data
Emic analysisEthnographic in natureStudies culture from withinUses culture’s own meanings and values
Etic analysisFrom the outsideDetached perspective that is used in multi-country studiesEnhances comparability but minimizes precision
