Background of the Study
Customer Relationship Management (CRM) systems are essential tools for managing interactions with customers and improving service quality in various industries, particularly telecommunications. Airtel Nigeria, a leading telecommunications provider, has invested significantly in CRM systems to foster customer loyalty, improve service delivery, and optimize operational success. CRM involves the use of technology to collect and analyze customer data, enabling companies to better understand their customers' needs, preferences, and behavior, which in turn drives customer satisfaction and retention (Ogunyomi & Akinwale, 2024).
In Sokoto State, Airtel faces competitive pressure from other telecommunications providers, which makes CRM even more critical for gaining a competitive edge. By effectively using CRM tools, Airtel can offer personalized services, improve customer engagement, and resolve issues swiftly, thereby boosting customer retention and operational efficiency. Moreover, CRM systems can streamline internal processes, such as marketing, sales, and customer service, making them more responsive and efficient. Thus, CRM not only helps maintain existing customers but also contributes to the operational success of Airtel Nigeria by enhancing overall productivity, reducing costs, and improving financial performance.
This study investigates the impact of CRM on Airtel Nigeria's operational success in Sokoto State, focusing on customer retention, service delivery, and operational efficiency.
