20. Carnegie Mellon University ©2006 – 2011 Robert. T. Monroe 70-451 Management Information Systems Customer Experience Example: Apple “The most recent experience I had with a CRM system was at an Apple store in the US. I made a purchase with my credit card. Every sales person at Apple has a credit card swiper attached to their iPhone which means you can make a purchase on the spot instead of going to a cashier desk and waiting in line. This was definitely a positive experience as Apple stores are very crowded and this procedure saves customers a lot of time. They had a record of my previous purchases as well as my email. They sent the receipt to my email, instead of printing out a paper copy. This was also a unique experience.” -- Maryam “The app store on iTunes for me is best examples of CRM. Whenever I buy a game or a movie on line, when I go back to the site they recommend other games and movies according to what I have purchased before. Last week I downloaded a comedy, this week they recommended other comedies with the same actors. They have narrowed my search and provided me with what I was looking for before I typed it, which gave them more sales.” -- Khadeejah

21. Carnegie Mellon University ©2006 – 2011 Robert. T. Monroe 70-451 Management Information Systems Customer Experience Example: Kempinski Hotels I had an experience that involved a CRM system this summer. I was in Amman, Jordan and me and some friends were going to Aqaba. We had a reservation in Kempinski hotel, which is the same hotel we go to every summer. In Jordan, you travel to different cities using public transportation, and it is very disturbing that when you reach Aqaba and get off the bus, you can never find a taxi to take you to the hotel you want to stay in. However, when we reached Aqaba, and the bus stopped, we found a car waiting for us with our name written on it. The driver had welcome packages and soft drinks in the car. We were very curious because we were confident that we didn't ask for a pickup service. The receptionist then reminded us that we complained during our last stay that it was very difficult to find a taxi, and when they saw our reservation again for this year, they wanted to make sure we do not struggle to get to the hotel again. This was a very good start for the vacation, and we all felt very welcomed and valued. -- Layal

Monroe 70-451 Management Information Systems Customer Experience Example: McDelivery “ One of the frequently used CRMs is McDonald's delivery service. McDelivery uses personal data such as address, name and telephone number to increase the speed and reduce the hassle of ordering in the future as well as using the phone number as a reference for customer queries. It saves time and helps induce clarity, as it can be a pain to try and spell your name every time. ” -- Patrick
