The latter is positively associated to sustainable competitive advantage and hence, significantly mediated the effect of social customer relationship management on sustainable competitive advantage. The study contributes to the literature through filling a research gap as research on the relationship between s-CRM and dynamic capabilities in Saudi Arabia is still scarce, confirming the importance of social customer relationship management in sustaining both dynamic capabilities and competitive advantage. SMEs are required to invest in CRM and build sustainable resources and capabilities to elevate sustainable competitive advantage.
