Understanding Search Query Performance and KPIs with Supa Template   In this episode Danny is joined by Mansour Norouzi to discuss his prebuilt Dashboard to help sellers really dial in on their metrics around the search query performance dashboard.   To help you get started with Amazon's search query performance dashboard, Mansour  created two pre-built SUPA templates that you can use to organise the data from your Seller Central account. These templates will help you analyse your search term data more efficiently and make data-driven decisions about optimising your listings   Episode Summary:   - Importance of checking data sources before making judgments - Amazon's various reports can cause confusion and incorrect assumptions - Metrics are important for measuring performance - Issues with Amazon's APIs - Using Amazon advertising for experimentation and measuring impact - Importance of measuring purchase share for ad impact on branded keywords - Importance of tracking conversion rates and market share for brand performance - Traditional measures like total sales trend may not accurately reflect brand growth - Product Opportunity Explorer for tracking search term trends and brand comparison to market - Consistency of performance for specific keywords - Utilising Brand Analytics for maintaining or increasing market share - Importance of analysing impact on purchase share for advertising and keyword testing - Amazon's focus on customers rather than vendors - Understanding search query performance and KPIs through funnel and super template shapes - Potential issues with local and geo ranking.   About Mansour   Mansour Norouzi was born in Tehran, Iran on August 25, 1986. He is the second Child among his 4 siblings. Mansour stood out in high school for being good with math and physics. Due to his passion for math, he applied to study engineering in university. After graduating from master of civil engineering in 2010, Mansour started his career as a construction manager. Then, he immigrated to Canada and continued his career as a construction manager.   Although, Mansour liked his field, he was fascinated by the idea of working online and being able to work while traveling. He started searching and learning for the online opportunities till he got to know about selling products on Amazon in 2018. While working in his full-time job, Mansour kept learning and started his own online business by the end of 2018. He made like-minded friends by attending to business seminars and expanded his network.   Being good with math and numbers, Mansour realised he is pretty good with one important part of Amazon FBA business and it was Amazon Advertising. Soon, he started getting his own clients to manage their advertising. He finally joined Incrementum Digital team in July 2020.

They can have their couple hundred accounts that they're going after and it's kind of like flogging the dead horse. And so what you want to make sure is that there's like ongoing inflow."Email reply rate is a quality metric echo - Peter: "Success in sales is all about a high quantity of high-quality selling behavior. And so there's also a number of metrics that are really important for characterizing the level of quality of the behavior in question. So again, going back to SDRs, those would be things like email reply rate, and that's like a good echo."You can find out more about Peter in the links below:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kazanjy/Website: https://www.atriumhq.com/Twitter: https://twitter.com/KazanjyConnect with KD in the links below:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kddorsey3/Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/insidesalesexcellenceLive Better.

Becoming a product-led is crucial for PMs because it puts the customer experience at the forefront of decision-making. By focusing on building products that users love and find value in, product-led organizations can drive growth, increase customer loyalty, and gain a competitive advantage in the market. This approach requires a deep understanding of customer needs, constant experimentation, and a willingness to prioritize the long-term success of the product over short-term gains.

Josiah Brown's mission in life is to “Inspire people forward.” After traveling 750,000+ miles promoting New York State as a travel destination and the industry that supports it, the New York Sherpa has a few stories to tell… On this episode of Destination on the Left, I talk with Josiah Brown about the trends and challenges facing the tourism industry in a post-COVID visitor economy. Josiah shares his philosophy on effective destination marketing, building quality of place, and the importance of the visitor economy in economic development. We also highlight the importance of metrics, staying relevant in the digital space, and tourism's value as a catalyst for economic growth. What You Will Learn in this Episode: Why rural communities often view tourism as a threat and lack understanding of its positive impact Metrics you can use to measure your in-person engagement How tourism can contribute to economic development and help to address workforce challenges and sustainability The challenges faced by one or two-person departments in managing the future of the visitor economy How to communicate effectively with rural communities to help them understand the workforce challenges of the future and how the visitor economy could help The seven-pillar model of effective destination marketing and the importance of building quality of place How Current Events Impact the Visitor Economy On the podcast with Josiah, we explore the state of the visitor economy and how it has been affected by recent events. We discuss the challenges faced by rural communities who struggle with viewing tourism as an asset, the need for strategic communication around the visitor economy, and how the industry may fare in the coming years. One key challenge highlighted is the negative perception some rural communities have of tourism. Many residents view visitors as a threat to their way of life and don't understand the benefits that tourism can bring, such as fresh capital, investment, jobs, and increased quality of place. Josiah also discusses the importance of educating locals on the positive effects of tourism and demonstrating how visitors can help the community in many ways. Strategic Communication Another key theme is the need for strategic communication around the visitor economy. Josiah notes that so many people, particularly in rural communities, do not understand the workforce challenges of the future, the sustainability of their communities, or the success of a post-agricultural or post-industrial community, all of which rely on the visitor economy. Josiah advocates for the seven pillars of destination management to promote the importance of tourism in economic development, which include strategies such as branding, marketing, sales, education, and a community calendar. The Potential of Tourism Finally, we explore the potential of the tourism industry in the coming years. While many industries may suffer from a recession, Josiah predicts that the tourism industry may not fare as badly because people are eager to travel again. He notes that there has been a wave of pent-up consumerism in the industry, with people valuing travel experiences more than before — which is why it's so important to stay in the marketplace and bolster your brand's visibility to ensure success in a post-COVID visitor economy.

In the second part of our mini-series exploring the concept of value in academic medicine, Dr. Ankur Kalra once again engages in a compelling discussion with Dr. Nandan Anavekar. Dr Anavekar, a Professor of Medicine at Mayo Clinic College of Medicine and consultant for both the Cardiovascular and Radiology Departments at Mayo Clinic, also serves as the Program Director for the Adult Cardiovascular Diseases Fellowship program. In this stimulating and thought-provoking episode, Dr. Kalra and Dr. Anavekar delve into the topic of measuring success in medicine. Dr. Anavekar puts forward the argument that the ambiguous definition of academic achievement often results in damaging biases that have long-term repercussions on the medical field. As a program director, Dr. Anavekar believes that the number of published articles should not be the only or most crucial criterion for evaluating early-career faculty. He argues that it's important to also consider the "distance travelled" by candidates. Dr. Kalra raises pertinent questions about the practical implications of this approach, and Dr. Anavekar provides candid insights into his responsibilities. The conversation also sheds light on the "publish or perish" mentality and highlights the need to prioritize patient needs over the ideals of the experts treating them. Can we move beyond binary thinking when it comes to measuring success in medicine? How does Dr. Anavekar tackle research questions? What is the true essence of being "academic"? Questions and comments can be sent to “podcast@radcliffe-group.com” and may be answered by Ankur in the next episode. Guest: @nandananavekar, host: @AnkurKalraMD and produced by: @RadcliffeCARDIO.

Johannes believes that a Scrum Master is successful when they can leave a team and feel confident that the team is on a good trajectory. One of the best indicators of this is when the team wants to try alternating the Scrum Master role among themselves. Johannes emphasizes the importance of investing a lot of time in teaching and mentoring the team at the beginning. He also likes to track metrics such as team happiness and health, lead time, cycle time, and the number of dependencies and the size of tasks. He recommends using the team health check exercise to assess team health. Featured Retrospective Format for the Week: Learning Matrix (with Kudos session) In this segment, Johannes talks about his favorite Agile retrospective format, the Learning Matrix. He emphasizes the importance of starting with a Kudos session, which involves sharing kind thoughts about the other people in the team. Johannes believes that this opens up more creativity and positivity in the session, and it's the key to the success of the format. By starting from a good point in the session with the Kudos session, the team can feel more motivated and energized to tackle the issues at hand. Johannes also recommends using Kudos to boost creativity when the team is feeling stuck.

Metrics that Measure Up - B2B SaaS Analytics

Play Episode Listen Later Apr 26, 2023 31:13


Matt Wolach is the founder of Xsellus and host of the Scale your SaaS podcast. Matt is one of those guests that have taken over a year to be on the Metrics that Measure Up podcast. Matt has hosted over 250 episodes of "Scale your SaaS" and was one of the inspirations for this podcast.The first question I asked Matt was about the common attributes that successful SaaS founders exhibited. By being a podcast host, Matt found he often learned more than he shares. However, one of the common themes of the most successful founders was the amount of time they invest in getting to know and understand their potential customers. Those discussions to dive into the mind of their potential customers was a key to success, and Matt recommends the goal should be to have about 50 of those discussions, versus the 3-5 that far too many founders conduct.What are the top three challenges that Matt sees early-stage companies face:1) Lead generation/Pipeline which often early-stage companies over-index on one or two channels. Matt recommends finding 4 - 5 channels that work, and then continuously optimize each channel. Matt says there are 18 ways to generate leads in a B2B Saa company, including commonly missed lead sources such as a defined lead referral process with current customers. Other missed lead sources such as influencers and affiliate programs are undervalued.2) Ability to close qualified leads is another inconsistent competency of many early-stage companies, which is especially dangerous if significant money is being invested in Marketing and lead generation activities. Matt suggests fixing the qualified lead to Closed-Won process before investing more in additional lead generation.3) Lead form/demo form to demo completed is surprisingly a big leak for many early-stage companies. Matt shared the story that one of his new customers did not even measure the number of people requesting to be contacted or have a demo. The inbound demo request-to-demo completed ratio is a critical conversion rate that far too many companies do not measure. Matt said that an average of 42% of people who request a meeting or demo actually end up having a meeting with the vendor - meaning 58% of high-intent leads are not actually being followed up with timely.What metric does Matt like for B2B Saas companies in the $1M - $5M ARR range? Matt said the Customer Lifetime Value to Customer Acquisition Cost Ratio (CLTV:CAC Ratio) is one of his favorite metrics. Essentially with the industry standards that Matt shared a 3:1 CLTV:CAC ratio is a good goal, it means that for every dollar you invest in Sales and Marketing, $3 of gross profit is generated. The latest RevOps Squared benchmarks show that a 4:1 CLTV:CAC Ratio is the new benchmark.If you are an early-stage B2B SaaS company, this conversation with Matt Wolach, the founder of Xsellus is a great listen

Johannes suggests limiting the time for mob programming and being adaptable in trying different tools. He also warns against falling in love with one tool and introduces the concepts of Shu-Ha-Ri and NoEstimates.

Internal insights and customer feedback are essential to building an effective customer-focused leadership strategy. But it requires continually listening to customers, measuring what matters, and ensuring data is passed to the right teams to make changes and improvements.     Diana Brown, SVP of Sales Operations and Customer Experience at XPO, involves leaders with the data through feedback loops. Leaders know the importance of data and see it first-hand by talking to employees about what is and isn't working and the tools they need to deliver a great customer experience.    This episode is sponsored by Thinkific. Blake Morgan is a customer experience futurist, keynote speaker, and author of the bestselling book The Customer Of The Future.
