Why you need a simple and easy to use CRM.

In today’s business climate, having a CRM has become a necessity…no longer a luxury. So everyone is getting CRM. But getting a traditional CRM is not a magic bullet for a number of reasons that we discuss elsewhere.

In fact, one of the biggest challenges is that most companies struggle to get their people to use their CRM.

Why don’t people use their CRM?

There are many reasons why people don’t use their CRM but one of the primary reasons is that traditional CRMs are difficult to use and not designed to help people succeed. The typical CRM is neither easy to use nor user-friendly. Most companies select a CRM because they believe it will give them better tracking of what their people are doing. Unfortunately, that translates into simply having a “big brother tool” to monitor sales teams. No wonder people don’t like to use them.

Also because they were designed for the purpose of tracking people, they inherently require the “users” navigate multiple screens, numerous clicks, and tolerate a visual experience that looks more like a spreadsheet than a helpful tool. That’s why so many people avoid using their companies’ CRM at all costs. For them, it’s simply not worth the extra effort to use their CRM when there’s not anything in it for them.

The harsh reality is, if your people can’t or won’t use your CRM, then your company gains nothing by having one!

How do you know if your CRM is not easy to use?

A “big brother” CRM leaves clues. It doesn’t think like a human. It’s not logical or intuitive. You have to change screens to enter or find info. It feels like you’re just filling out forms and entering data. The CRM doesn’t do anything to help your people be successful. It’s cumbersome and clumsy to use, enter notes and get useful help. If there’s no helpful reason for your people to use it, it’s probably not simple or easy to use.
