John Hayes, Director of Sales at BALYO, a technological leader in the design and development of innovative robotic solutions for material handling trucks, was recently featured in Forbes. Hayes warned about being overwhelmed by marketing data. Not all data are equally important. In recent years, the notion of data driven analytics has caused an inflated sense that all data are important and significant. According to Hayes, this is false. Read the full article here.
Hayes shared, “The truth is the only data that really matters are sales data. More leads and more interest levels are never as significant as sales agreements.”
Selling fun sexy robotics sounds very intriguing but if the issue is reaching the top shelves of a large distribution center, that requirement may well exclude the vast majority of automation guide vehicles (AGVs). Likewise, the smaller AMRs (automated mobile robots) are helpful in picking and packing, but lousy when pallets are involved.
Data can be useful when companies are rolling out new products or services. Tracking market receptivity to a new concept or solution can gauge whether messaging needs to be tweaked or modified. That is material information and useful. The ability to distinguish and differentiate meaningful data starts with the premise that measuring profitable sales is the point of all for-profit enterprises.
Hayes is a proud member of the Forbes Business Development Council, An invitation-only organization for senior-level sales and business development executives. Members are respected leaders and executives who are selected for the council based on the depth and diversity of experience in the business development space.
