Abstract

Technological advances and consumer behaviour changes are transforming CRM from a transactional to a conversational approach (called social CRM) that empowers customers as relationships’ co-creators. Limited research has examined the firms’ capabilities required to effectively integrate social media into CRM. To address this gap, a literature review produced a preliminary list of social CRM capabilities which was further refined and enriched by collecting data from the Greek tourism industry. Findings from various stakeholders (tourism professionals, scholars and IT vendors) and sources (observations, documents, job descriptions) produced a thorough list of social CRM capabilities and revealed the social CRM readiness of Greek tourism firms. The following capabilities are discussed: organisational culture and management, information resource management, information technology infrastructure, business strategy, customer-centric processes, communication, performance measurement.
