The Challenge
Organizations are swamped with data coming from all different angles. How do you pick out and identify the specific sweet spots that are important to you and your organization’s objectives? What is the sweet spot that is going to enable you to meet objectives which will roll up to the bigger objectives of the organization?
In today’s world, it is not good enough to just know that Sales are up or down for a specific Region or Territory. The current need is to take these insights to the next level. For example, once Sales & Marketing departments identify a potential risk, how can they change their plans to account for this risk? These are the actionable insights the Sales & Marketing department are looking for to make smarter decisions.
The KCM Solutions Process Will Allow You to Do
Our process will allow companies to make better business decisions by allowing each individual department to focus on initiatives which have the greatest impact on profitability. Members of the organization often need to ask 3 key questions to monitor performance:
1. “How are we doing?” – Measure and monitor exactly where the departmental objectives are at a specific point in time. We will help answer where you are on or off track with sales and marketing targets and goals. Use scorecards, dashboards, reports, or analyses to give us real time information of where your initiatives are.
2. “Why is this happening?” – Dig deeper to analyze trends, anomalies and the history behind your sales and marketing performance. Find out the specific details behind your information and put it in context to gain the insights you need to take action with initiatives.
3. “What should we be doing?” – After determining how we are doing and the reasons why, we can create a plan to move your organization forward. Use Predictive Analytics modelling to get an understanding of likely outcomes or use what-if scenario modelling to get an idea of the best and worst case scenarios.
This process will allow the companies to look around corners and see beyond blind spots as they make the next plan moving forward.
