The main goal of this exploratory research is to discuss the CRM essence through aphenomenological approach. This paper assumes that one of the main reasons for CRM failure is the lack ofunderstanding about the true meaning and implication of practices for managing the relationship with customers.Therefore, we need to question the essence of CRM itself and discuss the very concept of relationship. We claimthat the idea of CRM involves very serious issues about institutions, roles, power and ethical values that have tobe considered. In this article, we attempt to analyze the essence of relationship, trying to go beyond the commonmeaning of CRM.
