Understanding the Problem
Traditionally, businesses have relied on CRM systems like Microsoft Dynamics CRM to store and manage customer data. These systems are excellent repositories of valuable customer information, including names, contact details, purchase history, and, most importantly, addresses.
However, as our lead’s query highlighted, these data points are often presented as plain text entries in the database, which makes them difficult to interpret.
This conventional way of dealing with customer data has its drawbacks.
First, it’s challenging to visualize the geographic distribution of customers. Businesses often struggle to identify clusters of customers or areas where they might need to focus their efforts.
Second, planning efficient routes for customer visits can become a complicated and time-consuming task, especially if customers are spread across a large geographic area.
Moreover, the lack of a geolocalised view of customer data means businesses miss out on opportunities for personalized customer engagement.
The problem is clear, businesses need a more effective way to visualize and leverage their Dynamics CRM data for planning customer visits.
