A Strategic Framework

Praise for the first edition:

"Peppers and Rogers do a beautiful job of integrating actionable frameworks, the thinking of other leaders in the field, and best practices from leading-edge companies.

"—Dr. Hugh J. Watson, C. Herman and Mary Virginia Terry Chair of Business Administration, Terry College of Business, University of Georgia

"Peppers and Rogers have been the vanguard for the developing field of customer relationship management, and in this book, they bring their wealth of experience and knowledge into academic focus. This text successfully centers the development of the field and its theories and methodologies squarely within the broader context of enterprise competitive theory. It is a must-have for educators of customer relationship management and anyone who considers customer-centric marketing the cornerstone of sound corporate strategy."

—Dr. Charlotte Mason, Department Head, Director, and Professor, Department of Marketing and Distribution, Terry College of Business, University of Georgia

—Roy Barnes, Formerly with Marriott, now President, Blue Space Consulting

"This is going to become the how-to book on developing a customer-driven enterprise. The marketplace is so much in need of this road map!"

—Mike Henry, Leader for Consumer Insights at Acxiom
