CRM: I have a track record of successful take-up of CRM technology into corporates and NFP's. I understand the sales cycle for IT systems, and the decision-making process of the NFP executives, as well as the cultural barriers to maximising client retention for improved and additional services. This includes incorporating a business development culture across all departments of a NFP. The not-for-profit sector at this moment, requires a unique set of skills, at a unique time.
