I’ve been hearing the term Account Management a lot in business contexts, but I’m not entirely clear on what it involves. Is it mainly about managing customer accounts, or does it include other responsibilities as well?

Account management is basically the process of maintaining and building relationships with customers or clients after they start doing business with a company. It usually involves handling their needs, solving problems, offering support, and making sure they stay satisfied so the relationship continues long-term. In simple terms, it’s about keeping existing customers happy and loyal while also looking for opportunities to grow the partnership.

The concept of account management is to develop and sustain relationships with customers, ensure they are met and make certain that they are maximizing the value of the products or services of a company. It is not merely dealing with customer accounts.

Account Management involves relationship creation and relationship sustaining with the clients or customers. It includes taking care of their accounts, learning them, making them happy and even contributing to sales or service problems. Keeping records is more than keeping clients happy, it is helping the business grow.
