I would suggest as well budgeting in the time and money for training: pre-, during and post training. Solid training will ensure everyone’s on the same page; encourage participating and full adoption; foster collaboration and camaraderie; and ensure that everyone is well equipped, well informed, and well prepared to use the CRM solution, even as the company endures staff turn-over, lay offs, and other unforeseen situations.

One thing to avoid is trying to accomplish too much too soon. Take your time: identify what your company needs the most; secure enough budget; and allot enough time for a smooth and well-planned deployment.
