Agency Solutions

Is your data driving revenue growth for you and your clients? Or hindering it?

Sure, every agency wants to gather data to help their clients and show their value. But to truly increase revenue, that data must clearly define how to deliver a 1-to-1 customer experience.

A lack of clear, usable data is a growth killer

The more data the merrier is often not the case. Too much data, and the wrong type of it, can cause agencies to lose focus and lead to ineffective marketing efforts that fall short of expectations. It’s a position you don’t want to find yourself in. But unfortunately, many agencies do.

According to The State of MarTech, a comprehensive report from the research firm Ascend2, 59% of marketers feel that they DO NOT have the data they need to feel confident about which marketing campaigns are working and which are not. Often, that’s the result of data being scattered across several unconnected systems that breed inefficiency.

3 Ways to Make Data Work for You

It’s all about one thing: giving customers the content that connects and drives insights, conversion, action, revenue and growth. Having the right data and using it in the right way is the catalyst. Of course, it’s easier said than done. But by keeping the following in mind, you’ll be headed in the right direction.

#1: Focus On Three Types of Data

Firmographic (Grouping firms or companies together to form market segments). Demographic (Set of socioeconomic info to break down a group). Behavioral (observed action of customers engaging with a brand). These types of data allow marketing professionals to understand and personalize the customer experience.

#2: Consolidation Clears Things Ups

A bloated technology stack can make the big picture extremely blurry. By running a lean stack, you can reduce the data silos and get a clearer end-to-end view of prospects and customers. And you can solve issues faster, reduce costs, and simplify forecast and tracking KPIs.

#3: Integrate a Game Changing CRM

Putting a robust customer relationship management (CRM) system to work provides better firmographic, demographic, and behavioral data. It can also better segment contacts to specific target audiences in order to customize the customer experience. A CRM increases customer retention, makes communication faster, and better manages leads.

83% of marketing professionals agree that consolidating their marketing and sales tools would increase productivity and efficiency.
