HAND WASHING
● Ignaz Semmelweis was a Hungarian obstetrician in Vienna during the mid 1800s
● Noticed a difference in two wards○ Male medical students (3X higher mortality rate)○ Female midwives
● Understanding at the time - male students handled patients more roughly thus causing puerperal fever.
● A colleague of Semmelweis became ill the same fever symptoms after cutting his hand during a post mortem
● He required all doctors to wash their hands before treating patients.
● The mortality rate went down from 18.3% to just over 2% after.
● Unfortunately, he could not define the causal mechanism so germ theory came around in the 1880s

TRIGGERS

When you know you need to assess budget impact
● Sales targets are lowered and earnings will be impacted
● Firms may still need to hit EPS targets and therefore lower expenses
● Sales team anxiety about hitting numbers
● Some channels may not perform or be available
● Slowness in market demand for your products
● Significant change to how you execute through channels (Events, channel partners, travel constraints, etc.)

DATA SETUP & FINANCE CONSIDERATIONS
Document spend that has been forecasted, committed, and spent. (This allows you to TRULY know what you can recoup and what you cannot.)
Take inventory and document the risk of cancellations or change within your budget. (Some will be obvious, but others you will just want to get ahead of or think more critically about.)
Reallocate dollars and create scenarios for future spend. (You will want to quickly make decisions and put dollars back to work, but also get ahead of future risk and put together "what if" scenarios.)

REVIEW & TEST
Design good hypothesis questions that deliver relevant insights. E.g. “If I shift budget from Events to Digital Advertising, I will deliver the same or better Return on Investment”
Set up the tests to answer your question. In the example above, you can’t simply release the budget to the Digital team. It needs to be activated in a way that is measurable.
Capture all the tests in progress in one place and collect results when appropriate (taking into account statistical sample sizes).
How can you improve your hypotheses and improve success

YOUR RESULTS
Expect that some of your tests will fail. Each piece of information helps you paint a clearer picture of what’s happening and sets you up for the next turn in the road.
Communicate the results to the team and share the progress. Warning: the scrutiny can be uncomfortable. 😀
Keep building your skills, your measurement systems and the insights into your business!
How will you interpret the results of your test?
