Abstract

Mobile Customer Relationship Management (mCRM) frames the interface between business and client by supporting mobile actors using mobile terminals with mobile business processes. Experiences from the CRM background show difficulties in the implementation phase. Two reasons are responsible for these difficulties: poor execution of the project and unattainable project objectives. Therefore achievable objectives and success factors of mCRM projects are identified in this article, analysing scientific publications and best-practice cases. Initially the potential project objectives are discovered. Following the success factors of mCRM projects are determined and finally the achieved goals in projects are ascertained.
