What is customer relationship management?
CHARACTERISTICS:
CRM is a customer-oriented feature with service response based on customer input, one-to-
one solutions to customers' requirements, direct online communications with customer and
customer service centres that are intended to help customers solve their issues. It includes the
following functions:
Sales force automation, which implements sales promotion analysis, automates the
tracking of a client's account history for repeated sales or future sales, and coordinates
sales, marketing, call centres, and retail outlets.
Data warehouse technology, used to aggregate transaction information, to merge the
information with CRM products, and to provide key performance indicators.
Opportunity management which helps the company to manage unpredictable growth and
demand, and implement a good forecasting model to integrate sales history with sales
projections.
CRM systems that track and measure marketing campaigns over multiple networks,
tracking customer analysis by customer clicks and sales
ORIGIN OF CRM
Customer relationship management was originated in early 1970s.
CRM came as a process that dealt with relationships with customers surpassing the whole
business.
As said by Father of management “The true business of every company is to make and keep
customers”
IMPACT ON CUSTOMER SATISFACTION
The implementation of CRM is likely to have an effect on customer satisfaction for at least
three reasons:
Firstly, firms are able to customize their offerings for each customer. By accumulating
information across customer interactions and processing this information to discover hidden
patterns, CRM applications help firms customize their offerings to suit the individual tastes of
their customers. This customization enhances the perceived quality of products and services
from a customer's viewpoint, and because perceived quality is a determinant of customer
satisfaction, it follows that CRM applications indirectly affect customer satisfaction.
Secondly, CRM applications enable firms to provide timely, accurate processing of customer
orders and requests and the on-going management of customer accounts. For example,
Piccolo and Applegate (2003) discuss how Wyndham uses IT tools to deliver a consistent
service experience across its various properties to a customer. Both an improved ability to
customize and a reduced variability of the consumption experience enhance perceived
quality, which in turn positively affects customer satisfaction.
Thirdly, CRM applications also help firms manage customer relationships more effectively
across the stages of relationship initiation, maintenance, and termination
TYPES:
Call centres
As well as tracking, recording and storing customer information, CRM systems in call
centres codify the interactions between company and customers by using analytics and key
performance indicators to give the users information on where to focus their marketing and
customer service. The intention is to maximize average revenue per user, decrease churn and
decrease idle and unproductive contact with the customers.CRM software can also be used to
identify and reward loyal customers over a period of time.
Growing in popularity is the idea of gratifying customer service environments. The repetitive
and tedious act of answering support calls all day can be draining, even for the most
enthusiastic customer service representative. When agents are bored with their work, they
become less engaged and less motivated to do their jobs well. They are also prone to making
mistakes. Gratification tools can motivate agents by tapping into their visceral need for
reward, status, achievement, and competition.
Business-to-business
According to a Sweeney Group definition, CRM is "all the tools, technologies and
procedures to manage, improve, or facilitate sales, support and related interactions with
customers, prospects, and business partners throughout the enterprise". It assumes that
CRM is involved in every B2B transaction.
Despite the general notion that CRM systems were created for the customer-centric
businesses, they can also be applied to B2B environments to streamline and improve
customer management conditions. For the best level of CRM operation in a B2B
environment, the software must be personalized and delivered at individual levels.
Social media
Balaam (2010) presented evidence of a significant increase in the use of social
networking sites, especially among young people. This has caused companies to use these
sites to draw attention to their products, services and brands, with the aim of building up
customer relationships to increase demand.
Some CRM systems integrate social media sites like Twitter, LinkedIn and Face book to
track and communicate with customers sharing their opinions and experiences with a
company, products and services.
Enterprise Feedback Management software platforms such as Confirmit, Medallia,
and Satmetrix combine internal survey data with trends identified through social media to
allow businesses to make more accurate decisions on which products to supply.
ABOUT PROJECT
The project was carried out for understanding the customer behaviour in Current Account
of Jammu and Kashmir Bank, South branch and its market potential.
JAMMU AND KASHMIR BANK was established in the year 1938, they are old players
in banking sector, and the bank has two principle client segments –customer and asset
management. The bank follows value such as – Integrity, teamwork, respect, professionalism,
& Mission. The segment of bank we are considering here is- Corporate banking. The product
out of which I have chosen for research is Current Accounts. This research helps us in finding
out the customers view regarding the product and Services offered by the JAMMU AND
KASHMIR BANK and awareness by promotion and also identifying the market potential of
the product offered by the JAMMU AND KASHMIR BANK.
The project was carried out in south city of Kashmir with an objective of knowing CRM level
of bank with bank services and does customers aware about the different types of Current
Account with various schemes, Services and different offers provide by the bank. The total
sample size taken was one hundred (100) from various markets of the Kashmir. The research
shows that the market potential for the bank is very good and so many customers are not
aware of the services provided by the bank which are not provided by other banks. On the
other hand we have also the existing customers of JAMMU AND KASHMIR BANK Who
are satisfied with the working style of bank, but want continuous updates about the new
service schemes and other products of bank. They want that bank should do promotional
activity as – Advertising, so that they can be updated while sitting at home. The researcher
used the method of questionnaire to know all feedback

HISTORY OF JAMMU AND KASHMIR BANK
Entire banking in the state of Jammu and Kashmir was performed by traditional
money lenders till 1920-30 and that too at exorbitant interest rates. At the same time
some banks functioned but at a very limited scale, such as Punjab National bank,
Grind lays bank and Imperial bank of India.
The role of these banks was reduced to the acceptance of deposits, as they could
not grant loans and advances to the people of the state owing to the statutory
limitations. Under this scenario banks could not ameliorate the financial and social position
of people of the state. To overcome this critical situation , then Maharaja of State
conceived an idea of setting up of a State bank in the State. After prolonged
exercises and deliberations the assignment for establishment of “The Jammu &
Kashmir Bank Limited” was given to the late Sir Sorabji N Pochkhanwala
formulated a scheme on 24.09.1930, suggesting establishment of a semi State bank
with participation in capital by State and public under the control of State
Government. Thus the bank was formally incorporated on 1st of October 1938 and
commenced business from 4th of July 1939 at its registered office, Residency Road,
Srinagar, Kashmir.
In its formative years, the bank had to encounter several serious problems, particularly
around the time of independence, when out of its Total of 10 branches two branches
of Muzaffarabad and Mirpur fell to the other side of line of control (Now Pak
Administered Kashmir) along with cash and other assets in 1947. However, State Govt.
came to its rescue with the assistance of Rs. 6.00 lacks to meet the claims. The
bank steadfastly overcame its difficulties and kept growing. Following the extension
of Central Laws to the State of Jammu & Kashmir, the bank was defined as a Govt.
company as per the provisions of Indian Companies Act 1956.The Bank had its first
full time Chairman in 1971 was a turning point for the bank on conferment of
scheduled bank status and witnessed remarkable progress in all vital fields of
operations. Reserve Bank of India declared the bank as ‘A’ class bank in 1976. In
recognition of dominant role and exalted performance, RBI entrusted the Bank as its
agent for performing the general banking business of the Central Govt., especially
in maintaining currency chest and collection of taxes.

Peter C. Verhoef (2003) Scholars have questioned the “effectiveness of several customer
relationship management strategies”. The author investigates the differential effects of
customer relationship perceptions and relationship marketing instruments on customer
retention and customer share development over time. Customer relationship perceptions are
considered evaluations of relationship strength and a supplier’s offerings, and customer share
development is the change in customer share between two periods. The results show that
affective commitment and loyalty programs that provide economic incentives positively
affect both customer retention and customer share development, whereas direct mailings
influence customer share development.
Wang and Lo (2004) found that “CRM model is based on two perspectives”. The first one,
measures the factors related to customer behaviour such as: repurchasing, cross and up selling
and customer acquisition rate, and the second one measures the relationship quality, such as
customer satisfaction and customer loyalty (Wang and Lo, 2004). Data were collected from
400 randomly selected customers of two security china’s company. According to the
emphasizing customer equity-base view, findings explores that emotional and functional
behaviour of customers has positive impact on customer satisfaction and customer
satisfaction has positive effect on customer behaviour based CRM. Finally, the result of this
study shows that customer behaviour based CRM have a positive effect on customer and
brand loyalty.
Adrian Payne, PennieFrow (2005) In this article, the authors develop a“ conceptual
framework for customer relationship management (CRM)” that helps broaden the
understanding of CRM and its role in enhancing customer value and, as a result, shareholder
value. The authors explore definitional aspects of CRM, and they identify three alternative
perspectives of CRM. The authors emphasize the need for a cross-functional, process-
oriented approach that positions CRM at a strategic level. They identify five key cross-
functional CRM processes: a strategy development process, a value creation process, a
multichannel integration process, an information management process, and a performance
assessment process.
Thomas Dotzel, Venkatesh Shankar and Leonard L Berry. (2013) this research “evaluates
the effect of customer relationship management (CRM)” on customer knowledge and
customer satisfaction. An analysis of archival data for a cross-section of U.S. firms shows
that the use of CRM applications is positively associated with improved customer knowledge
and improved customer satisfaction. This article also shows that gains in customer knowledge
are enhanced when firms share their customer-related information with their supply chain
partners.
OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
There are some purposes for the project studied. The main purpose of this project studied is
to find out the relationship between the customers and the employees so as to know the
customer satisfaction. It is tried to study what strategy the company has adopted for customer
satisfaction and how people are satisfied from the service.
1. The analysis of the principles of methods. Rules & postulates employed by a disciplined
2. The systematic study of methods that can be or have been applied within a discipline
RESEARCH DESIGN:
Research design can be thought of as the structure of the research – it is the glue that holds all
the elements in a research projects together. We often describe a design using a
concise notation that enables us to summarise a complex design structure efficiently.
Considering the objectives of the study, simple survey was conducted and accordingly
analysis of information was made. Exploratory research design is used in present
study.
SOURCES OF DATA:-
Primary data: This data was collected directly from respondents by personal interview
through questionnaire.

other purpose. The secondary data is basically collected from websites, Books, Magazines
and Journals.

Sample size refers to the total no. Of respondents targeted for collecting the data for research.
The sampling size of my study is 100 respondents (from Kashmir).
SURVEY METHOD:-
The related data or information was obtained by personal administration
through questionnaire i.e. personal survey.

SAMPLE UNIT:-
Single most unit of the population, it may be single person or group of persons,
from whom questionnaire will be filled till target is fulfilled. The sampling unit
in this report are individual J&K Bank customers.
SAMPLING METHOD:-

Percentages and Pie Chart: These tools were also used for analysis of data.
Question 1:- Since when you are having account in your current bank.

Interpretation:-
The above graph shows that 32% of total respondents are having their a/c with J&K Bank for
more than 4 years, 28% are for 2-3 years and 16% for both 1-2 year and 3-4 years. Thus, it
shows that J&K Bank is doing well and is able to retain its customer through its various
attractive services.
Question 2:- Please ticks the services you avail of your current bank?

Interpretation:-
We can infer from this figure that a large no of 39% respondents are having the core facility
of the bank i.e. saving a/c and 22% are also using credit card of the bank. All the other
facility such as demat a/c, current a/c, loan and internet banking is being used by very small
portion of respondents of 5%, 6%, 5% and 11% respectively. A drawback can be easily
identified that none of the respondents are using mobile banking facility, thus, J&K Bank
should come up with many attracting features to encourage mobile banking.

Interpretation:-
The above graph shows that ATM services, credit card, bank a/c and especially locker facility
is rated high most by large no. of respondents. Locker facility is generally not considered by
most of the customers but J&K Bank is doing well in this category, thus, it should be
strengthening this facility and should make available to large customers. Internet banking,
mobile banking and demat a/c are rated lower by many respondents, thus, company should be
extending its strength to this new generation facilities.

Interpretation:-
The most important aspect for any organisation is to be rated high on satisfaction level by its
customers. Here, the graph reflects that 68% of respondents are satisfied with J&K Bank and
even 16% are highly satisfied. Only 12% are dissatisfied and the best part is that none of the
respondents felt highly dissatisfied with the services of the bank. Thus, company should also
focus on this 12% dissatisfied because dissatisfaction leads to increase in dissatisfied
customers.
Question 5:- Do you have any complaints regarding your bank?
Complaints response
NO 86
Yes 14

86%
Interpretation:-
It can be clearly see that 56% of respondents do have complaints regarding bank besides they
are satisfied with bank and only 44% feels that they would not complain regarding services of
the bank. It generally happens when customers do have complaints and do not want to switch
to other service provider due to their loyalty towards the bank. They want to stay with the
bank and desire to get resolution to their problems. Therefore, J&K Bank should effectively
handle the complaints of its customers to make them satisfied and un-complained.
Question 6:- Please rate the area where you have complaints .
Unresponsiveness of employees 21
Wrong transaction
3% Unresponsiveness

Disruption in 21%

9%
Non-upgraded services Delay in service
4% delivery
31%
Interpretation:-
Here, 31% of the respondents believe that they do not get their service on time and there
happens delays in delivery of services. Waiting time is always unproductive for customers as
well as bank because it is also loss of opportunity and may also lead to switching of
customers to competitors. Among all the respondents, 21% feels that the employees of the
bank do not proactively response their queries and complaints and 13% of respondents have
also experienced that employees were rude to them while interacting. These two aspects are
related to behaviour of employees that may influence a customer to be loyal and may also
spoil the long term relationship with the bank in a while. Thus, the bank should conduct some
soft skill training to make the employees behave with customers in a good manner. Moreover,
19 % responses were about insecurity in digital banking such as internet and mobile banking
and that is why most customers do not use these facilities. Thus, J&K Bank should come up
with good secure system and ensure the security and should convey the same to its customers
effectively in taking their confidence.
Question 7:- How would you rate the behavior of employees in your
current bank.

Interpretation:-
The graph shows the employees behaviour that impacts a lot on business of any organisation.
It can be inferred from the data analysis that J&K Bank is doing very well in terms of
services but they value is getting destructed by its employees unproductive behaviour, here,
48% of the respondents feel that the behaviour of employees was very good and 0% also feel
that they were worst. On the other hand, 12% of respondents have selected excellent and bad
by 12% of participants on the behaviour issue of J&K Bank. Thus, there is emergence to
work on employee behaviour if, the bank wants to improve in the future. It should invest in
training program of its employees and make them know the worth of customers.
Question 8:-Do you think that you are given personalized treatment by
your bank.

Interpretation:-
The above graph is to chart the differentiation between normal and valuable customers. It is
good for J&K Bank that 56% of respondents think that they are treated in personalized way
by the bank and they are given treatment as per their worth in the bank.
Question 9:- Do you use any loyalty schemes of the bank, if yes then please

respondents do not avail any loyalty scheme and bronze is 16%, silver is 8% and gold is 12%
availed by the respondents. But, none of the respondents use platinum card scheme. Thus,
J&K Bank should come up with many such loyalty schemes that help in identifying and
retaining most valuable customers of the bank.
Question 10:- Would you like to use more products and services of your
current bank in future.

Interpretation:-
The graph is to show the potential customers of the bank that in future the bank can cross sell
or up sell to these customers. It is very good for the bank that 72% of the respondents would
like to avail more products and services of J&K Bank. Thus, the bank should come with more
innovative, attractive, and affordable products and services in future to target these potential
cum loyal customers.
Question 11:- Would you like to recommend this bank to your family &

Interpretation:-
The most important and pleasing graph of this study is to see whether customers are as
satisfied to recommend this bank to someone else. It shows that 60% of the respondents
would definitely recommend this bank to the known. Among the whole respondents, only 4%
would never recommend that shows their dissatisfaction and 12% said directly no. Therefore,
the company should focus on improving the behaviour its employees to convert these 12%
and 4% respondents into satisfied customers that will not only give their future business to
the bank but also do positive word of mouth that is the best communication tool used by any
company.

6. Some of the customers of the bank think that the employees have bad behaviour towards

7. Most of the customers are loyal towards the bank & are satisfied with the bank.
SUGGESTIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
1. J&K Bank should also focus on the other services like providing loan, internet banking,
mobile banking, etc.
2. The employees of J&K Bank should change their behaviour otherwise they will lose their
customers.
3. J&K bank should provide quick services to the customers. For that they have to either
change their staff or provide training to their employees.
4. Since the customers are loyal towards the bank, so they should also be loyal towards them.
RECOMMENDATIONS:-
1. Bank should hire professional people from the local community they are trying to serve to
improve understanding and performance, also increased comfort levels and trust for
customers. Attractive salaries and benefits can motivate employees to perform their duties
well.
2. Bank should focus on measuring current business volumes in branch/geographic
penetration, to help predict future value/growth patterns; in branch marketing research, to
ensure understanding of customers’ satisfaction levels, service expectations, customer
loyalty etc. and tracking the success of advertising and PR and transfer learning into
future campaigns.
3. Measurement is a key to the understanding, learning and improvement customer
experience. Banking sector management needs actively to articulate the need for an
improved and consistent customer experience and branch managers should localize this
approach and coach their staff to deliver it.
4. Banks should use customer friendly technology – which their customer can use and
brings value in their life.
5. Banks should recognize the diversity of experience and needs of different customers.
6. Banks need to develop the propositions both relevant and practical, but not too complex.
7. Banks should get support from local media, newspapers and magazines to build
commitment and trust in the community and to reflect values and aspiration of local
community in services and products.
CONCLUSION
Although all banks recognize the need for CRM, not every bank is implementing the
complete CRM concept. The way CRM has been implemented thus far seems to depend
heavily on the current balance between the discretionary and advisory services that the bank
provides.
Customer Relationship Management is beneficial for all stakeholders: customers, employees,
and investors. It is being used large or small banks in India as well as abroad. Due to
privatization, deregulation, and globalization competition has increased.
