In general, marketing and sales do not use data to create and test hypotheses in the marketplace. Instead, they rely on intuition. By relying mainly on the gut-feel of marketers and sales-people, companies guarantee the perpetuation of shopworn beliefs. Successful companies back up their brands and sales and marketing approaches by creating an infrastructure of data, facts, and analysis behind the scenes. They work to create processes, systems, and databases that ensure that every go-to-market idea and approach is grounded in measurable, provable business facts. Casino company Harrah's Entertainment Inc has had great success in targeting "low-rollers" in recent years. For Harrah's, CRM consists of two key elements.

Alex and Brad, both in their mid-40s, had just celebrated the 10th anniversary of Consulting, Inc., their market consulting business. The next morning, before going to work, Brad suffered a heart attack while jogging and died later that day. Alex suddenly lost his longtime business associate. What's more, after the estate was settled, he found himself with a new co-owner - Brad's wife.
