What is CRM?
What is CRM and why is it important?
According to Dictionary.com, CRM is Customer Relationship Management. It is also a term to describe software that helps a business organize and manage customer data. The aim of CRM is to assist in building lasting customer relationships. You want to turn customer satisfaction into customer loyalty.
Did you know it costs 5 to 7 times more to introduce a new customer to buy than it does an existing customer? 68% of customers who walk away from a relationship with a vendor do so because of poor customer service. Companies who give spotty and inconsistent service will lose customers.
Managing your customer relationship is important for all businesses. With the economy in the state that it is, now is the time to craft your CRM strategy with your customers. The businesses that will come out of this economic situation on top are those who learn how to meld little into much. That means helping our clients succeed into sales and growth.
At Regency Interactive we have already started this process.
We have one-on-one relationships with many of our clients.
We clearly interact with our clients so they know exactly what services we provide.
We stay up-to-date on all new technologies so we have better information at our fingertips to optimize the service for our customers and maximize their revenue.
As you can see CRM is very important because of today’s fast competitive environment. With the globalization of the internet, competition can now come as easily from around the world as from around the corner. At Regency Interactive we appreciate our customers. You can count on it!
Four Great Twitter Applications
Toanswer is a very useful Twitter application. It is very similar to Yahoo answers. You ask a question and then it is indexed, and you wait for other uses to respond back. Here is how you get started! You simply add the profiles Toask & Toanswer to your Twitter account. You can post a twitter update in the following format: “@ToAsk are there any good websites for a computer themed Wordpress theme?”
Toanswers scours the twitterverse, then finds the answer and will post it on the homepage. It may take a few minutes to appear due to Twitter’s API limitation.
Twitter Search (Formerly Summize). Twitter is also a good functional tool itself. You can go to the website and search for whatever you like i.e. your company name or your industry related keywords. You can track conversations about a particular topic as well. You can also see who is talking about you, your brand or a topic you are interested in. For example, a user can type in “SEO” and you can find hundreds of useful tips and people in the SEO field.
Have you ever been on twitter and you are trying to keep up with all your tweeples at a conference, or even try to keep up with an important conversation? Hashtags will be your weapon of choice. Hashtags are a way to group twitter messages of choice. Hashtags is an opt-in service. You must follow @hashtags for the service to index your tweets. To see all tweets for a hashtag simply add the hashtag name at the end of this URL: http://hashtags.org/tag/”keyword” (i.e. http://hashtags.org/tag/SEO).
Twitter Local helps you find local people who use Twitter in your area. This is a great networking tool to find other users in your area who may be in the same line of business or whom have similar interests in your field. It also shows a leader board of what users have tweeted the most in your area (i.e. @cyandle for our area). The results only show people who have sent tweets within the last 24 hours. If you want a run down of who uses twitter locally to you, but not posted lately, you can always use a Google query command such as site: twitter.com location Raleigh NC.
These are just some of the tools we use with our twitter accounts here at Regency Interactive. Feel free to contact us today for your free, no obligation consultation and free Internet visibility report. Just 10-15 minutes with one of our search engine marketing consultants could be the difference in your business just getting by or becoming a major player in your industry.

Several days walking around the office and reading my daily blogs, I kept seeing the word twitter. “What is twitter?” I ask myself. I turned to the almighty Google and typed in “twitter” and began my search.
It turns out that Twitter is a free social powerful networking and micro blogging service which allows users to send “update” or “tweets” up to 140 characters long on Twitter’s website. The updates are displayed on the users profile page and instantly delivered to other users have subscribed to them. You can even have your Twitter updates show up on your personal/business website as well as a few social networks such as Myspace and Facebook. There are also Twitter clients that you can use to see updates the people you are “following” have issued as well as post your own updates.
Twitter is also a helpful writing tool when it comes to writing title tags as well as description tags. For SEO purposes, title tags should be between 60-80 characters and description tags should be between 150-225 characters. You can start learning how to summarize your ideas and thoughts and thus incorporate that into your work.
What else is Twitter good for you ask? Well you can also use it to network with people in your industry as well as indirectly talk about your products and services. With Regency Interactive being in the Internet marketing / SEO industry, I find it a fascinating and amazing tool. It’s also very addictive I might add so be careful!

Yesterday, Jennifer Laycock from Search Engine Guide spoke at a conference given by Ohio Web Leaders on “What Nutella (and I) Can Teach You About Blog Marketing” and she posted an article about her speech on her website today.
In the article, she references a conversation that had transpired during one of their morning sessions and how she later used it to demonstrate what her speech was going to be about. Even though we at Regency Interactive are familiar with what her speech topic was about, we feel the example she gave definitely allowed the audience to understand what she was trying to convey about social media and how it can influence users.
Make sure you read her whole article as it makes for a great read as the people at Search Engine Guide always provide in depth and intuitive articles!
