Abstract

With the development of technology, implicitly of the fast and easy access to information, the requirements and exigencies of the customers have changed. The customer asks for much more information about a product before deciding to buy it, and a prompt response from the sales team will tip the balance decisively in favor of the seller. The success of an efficient sales team is represented by addressing to the right customers at the right time and in the right way. In the paper we analyzed how the Odoo program can be implemented within the sales-marketing department. Using specific modules, we followed the information flow of the marketing process, from market prospecting and to the registration in accounting of the invoices resulting from the orders made. We also presented the way in which marketing campaigns can be carried out, depending on the target group to which it is addressed.
