How a Data-Driven View and Integrated Toolset Impacts the Full Sales Cycle - Part 1

Every decision-maker has their own views and motivations. 

  • Regardless of cost or usability, user experience is fundamental to successful technology integration. If people don’t use it, what’s the point?
  • Moving towards cloud-based software means IT and technical roles need input into the decision-making process. 
  • Make something incredibly easy to adopt because if people don’t use it, you aren’t moving your business forward.

Establish a bottom line of trust between departments:

  • In many cases, IT and marketing teams might find it challenging to establish a software solution that satisfies all teams.
  • A data-driven approach helps establish a solution that drives results. A highly customizable and nuanced solution might sound appealing, but the increased integration costs might make the solution less beneficial than expected.

The truth behind CRMs:

  • By definition, a CRM is a customer relationship management tool. However, it is synonymous with a sales platform. Shouldn’t relationship management encompass more?
  • Growth is a team sport; it’s not just the job of sales, marketing, or any one department.
  • Track touchpoints throughout the relationship to have shared context throughout the customer’s buying journey.

Remove complexity to scale growth:

  • Simplifying the buying process and the communication model between internal teams makes scaling dramatically simpler.
  • Identifying opportunities to work in alignment fosters a development process that benefits both consumers and your business.
  • A time-to-value system is critical. Value progress over perfection, because taking time to make significant steps means your new system might lose value once integrated.

Company culture and retention are directly connected. After all, if you fail to build good company culture, you fail to retain top talent. At FitzMartin, we help leaders like you raise their NPS scores from the low 60s to the high 80s (and, more importantly, present a plan to help you do the same.)
