Define the secret Acronyms

[danoneil]

Team, I must confess that I do not know all the lingo (acronyms) that are used on the forum.
I know a few, but it would be nice to have a list of definitions.


If you don't mind, can we define them ? Add what you want and correct me if I am wrong.

ISM Interner Sales Manager
CRM Customer Relations Manager ??? Is that right ?
OEM
SEO Search Engine Optimization
SEM Search Engine Maintanence ?

 

[Jerry Thibeau]

OEM = Original Equipment Manufacturer
CRM = Customer Relationship Management (better known as software when mentioned on DR)
SEM = Search Engine Marketing

You got two out of the five right!
