Do You Need an Analytic Dashboard?
Is your organization suffering from:1) Confusion about the effectiveness of new
media (what is your social media ROI?)?2) Lack of comparable metrics across media
(online vs. offline) or countries?3) Too many ‘key performance indicators
without proof of their sales impact?
Can marketing answer the questions:1) If we need to cut 20% from our marketing budget, what would we cut?2) If we need to get 10% more revenues next year, where would they come from? 3) When does our marketing action affect performance, and how long does it last?
Do you want to:1) Agree on facts so meetings
focus on plans to action?2) Justify budget (changes) in
winning financial language?3) Deploy analytics to turn data
into better decisions?

A common pitfall in the data-driven journey is the emphasis on reporting than deep-dive analysis. The analytics team’s time is
primarily spent on maintaining the existing reports and responding to ad-hoc reporting requests. Almost no emphasis is
placed on advanced analysis, which can provide significantly more value to the business.

Commonalities Differences
Provide a snapshot of a firm’s performance
Dashboard metrics proven to lead performance by data analytics
Dashboard integrates short- and long-term objectives of a firm, scorecard is rather focused on long-term deliverables
Align marketing (other functional unit) objectives with a firm’s strategy
Scorecard lacks flexibility, dashboard is highly customizable
Dashboard focuses on a firm’s context, scorecard is rather weak on competition perspective/analysis
Link inputs with outputs Scorecards’ users are predominantly top managers, dashboards can be used at any level of organizational hierarchy

“It is possibly the single most important opportunity, in a decade, for your management to reinvent.
But to do so you need to have good metrics, measurements you can trust and from which you can make sound decisions that
advance your company's business plan.
You need to measure what really counts. Once identified, these metrics should then be placed in your Dashboard.”
Borenstein, 2009

Today’s marketers must possess a hybrid of traditional marketing
skills and quantitative skills – mixing both art and science. But it’s not
enough to have both on the team; you have to some of each in
everyone (like having a major and minor in college). We’ve started
living this at SAP. To let the science influence the art, we gather data
and feedback on our marketing ideas before we make a full
commitment.

Chapter 13: Change Your Decision Making: From Interpretation to Action
“Information is not knowledge. The only source of knowledge is experience.”

Bladt and FilbinDosomething.org , 2013

Chapter 14: Nurturing the Culture and Practice of Accountability
“The real revolution in data will be a change in organizational behavior and culture — and those changes are hard and take
