How do you measure success?
There are a number of metrics we can use but generally it is accepted that this comprises the following 7 elements in regards to business;
1 – Profitability
2 – Number of Customers
3. -Satisfaction Level of Those Customers
4 – Employee Satisfaction
5 – Your Satisfaction
6 – Level of Learning and Knowledge
7 – How You Spend Your Time
The first three of these obviously relate to the financial success of the business and the last four being slightly more difficult to measure, albeit just as important as these create the enjoyment we get on a daily basis and support strong staff retention in a very turbulent market.
What about applying that question to our marketing strategy? How do we measure the success of marketing?
That can be incredibly difficult as the results of this may not be seen for a significant time. You can after all raise the profile of your business at a time when your services aren’t required but a year later when those services are needed, the customer remembers your business as a result of the campaign – right person / wrong time.
