The lifeblood of any business are its customer relationships and the lifetime value of customers from one product or service generation to the next. As cost and time pressures impact a business however they often resort to dealing with customers on transactions only, not investing the time in fully understanding their needs. As the text and course have shown, the integration of technologies into customer relationship strategies can deliver significant profitability and long-term company performance gains. The reliance on Customer Relationship Management (CRM) systems and the strategies they enable are revolutionizing businesses by quantifying customer expectations and creating a 360-degree view of each customer (Mukerjee, Singh, 2009). The insights gained from integrating CRM systems into customer relationships also serve as the foundation for greater accuracy and precision in e-commerce, Web analytics, and the creation of more effective self-service strategies as well (Xu, Walton, 2005). CRM's adoption throughout all industries is predicated on how effective it is in augmenting and strengthening the customer experience, leasing to greater long-term customer value over the long-term (Kim, Mukhopadhyay, 2011). Of the many companies who have successfully implemented CRM to enhance and strengthen their relationships with customers, Virgin America has been the most successful in the airline industry due to their focus on streamlining pre-sales, sales and post-sales of their business (Kirby, Trimble, 2011). In evaluating the impact of technologies on companies, the use of CRM at Virgin America is used as an example of how to do this well. Specifically focusing on how this airline has been able to streamline their Internet-based self-service portal with back-office enterprise systems, all aligned to passengers' needs, shows best practices in integrating technology to support customers (Kim, Mukhopadhyay, 2011). How Virgin America introduced CRM to its customers is first analyzed, followed by an assessment of how the new CRM system and Web Self-Service Portal added value to the customer experience, leading to greater loyalty and profitability. Third, the support plan Virgin America relied on for their Internet-based self-service portal is also analyzed. Finally the potential new partnerships for Virgin America are presented, in addition to recommendations. All of these factors were orchestrated around excelling at the delivery of an exceptional customer experience for the Virgin America customers, which in turn led to greater profitability over the long-term (Kirby, Trimble, 2011).

The labyrinthine irresolvable plot and the farcical narrative loaded with paradox, litotes, and parallelism combine to make The Importance of Being Earnest an intellectually interesting yet boldly comic play. Wilde's sparkling, brilliant wit conveys what each of wants to say to the hypocritical starched shirts in our lives. He lampoons freely, confident that his audience will never quite recognize itself in the characterization.
