Customer Relationship Management - Best in Class

Data Doctors has developed a custom implementation of Salesforce.com Enterprise Edition, giving our franchisees access to the very best customer relationship management tool available - a level of CRM sophistication usually reserved for much larger companies, and almost never available or cost-effective for sole proprietors of small businesses. All customer information from the Retail Management System and Data Doctors Service Advisor is integrated with Data Doctors' implementation of Salesforce.com, ensuring that franchisees always have a comprehensive view of their best relationships and future revenue opportunities.
