Customer relationship management, or CRM, is a promotional tactic used in integrated marketing and other types of consumer-focused marketing. CRM programs use database management to build long-term customer loyalty. Marketers collect and store information on customers so that they can personalize promotions and advertisements. A market segment is a set of consumers grouped together by marketers. Markets may be segmented according to a number of criteria, including purchasing habits, needs, lifestyle, age and interests.
