    Siebel Financial Services Customer Relationship Management for Banking Technical Paper

    An Oracle White Paper October 2010 Siebel Financial Services Customer Relationship Management for Banking Oracle White Paper—Siebel Financial Services Customer Relationship Management for Banking Executive Overview Banks are in constant interaction with customers. A winning and proven strategy for the banking industry is to put your customer in the center of your business model and make your customer the focus. To build customer loyalty, and ultimately customer advocacy, you must provide a superior customer experience. It is crucial that you make every interaction—every moment of truth—a high-quality experience for the customer, whether they are considering a new service or product, scheduling a loan appointment, or using bill pay service. At the same time, you must also handle these interactions with operational efficiency to control costs and manage productivity. Introduction Customers expect a cohesive front and strong branding, regardless of any siloed lines of business or IT systems that your enterprise may have. From a customer perspective, they are doing business with one company, regardless of product, service, or channel. Their level of satisfaction with that bank is measured by the accumulation of their experiences across customer touchpoints. To actively engage your customers, you need to be where they are, allowing your customers to efficiently and securely connect in person, online, and by phone. There are three key ways to provide a superior experience for the customer and a cost- conscious one for your business: Be where your customers are. Allow customers to select their preferred method of interaction. Provide cross-channel support via phone, mobile, e-mail, chat, online over the Web, and face-to-face.

    New Solutions for Old Challenges: Seamlessly Converge Media in your Contact Center using Proven Technology…Starting Now! Calltrol Corporation 400 Columbus Avenue Valhalla, NY 10595 914-747-8500 voice 914-747-8595 fax www.calltrol.com ©2001 Calltrol Corporation Rev. 1.4 This document contains trademarks of Calltrol Corporation, Microsoft Corporation and others. Introduction The goal – Convergence at the user interface We’re shooting for your business specific application(s) to be coordinated and integrated with all of your users communication means. Having a unified communication interface separate from your business application/CRM system is outside what we consider the “Convergence Zone”, although it may be touted as a converged solution. So, beware of “buzz” words and look at the solution. This is the goal. Your individual circumstances dictate the degree to which this may actually be achieved. It is achievable. Why write this document? Education. The greatest challenge we have besides the development of problem solving tools is communicating about unconventional solutions with a marketplace so accustomed to obsolete technology. Any degree of convergence can be achieved easily and cost effectively…with the right partner and product mix. Look at what some of your peers have done. Explore your options. Set aside the sales pitch. Focus on the details of the solution and talk to others who have benefited from the same products. Understanding can only help you. Enjoy and give feedback The core of this white paper is a series of real-life examples. We can make our material better through improved understanding of real-world needs and achievements.
