What is Customer LifeCycle Management ?
SM
As it relates to Customer Relationship Management (CRM), customer
LifeCycle Management (CLM) is used to describe the progression of
steps a consumer goes through when: considering, purchasing, using,
and maintaining a vehicle.
The goal of lifecycle management is to pro-actively move the consumer
through the cycle again and again by defining the way in which an
enterprise interacts & communicates with its customers and prospects at
each phase of the life cycle.

Why is LifeCycle Management important?
For the average franchised New Vehicle Dealer:
• Marketing and Advertising is the second largest business expense
• 88% of the Marketing & Advertising dollars are spent in Mass-Media
• Marketing & Advertising consumes 25% - 30% of the average new vehicle
gross profit
• Front end acquisition rates typically yield 50% capture of the total advertising
influenced prospect base
• 40% of “New” customers never generate a CP repair order
• 70% of the customers “defect” within the first 3 years of ownership
• Less than 15% of annual sales are to repeat customers
YET • 20-25% of their customer households will purchase a vehicle
annually

Why is LifeCycle Management important?
For the average BMW Center regarding Aftersales:
• Customer service intervals are more expansive
•Many BMW Service centers are at capacity
•Must maximize each visit / opportunity
•Vehicles are built better and have more complex systems
•Less parts sales
•More computer programming repairs versus additional parts or labor sales
• Co-op funding going untapped – why solicit more if you can’t handle it?
•Need ability to consistently build value in the breadth and quality of BMW products
& services
•Accessories, Lifestyle & boutique items, warranties, etc.
