  • A Digital Transformation Strategy to Tame Your Tech
    Nov 5 2024
    Is optimizing existing tech more efficient than chasing the shiny, new object? Is your company flush with technology but still faced with productivity challenges? Did your last technology onboarding fall flat? On this episode of Digital Transformation Success, host and Little Bird Marketing CEO, Priscilla McKinney, talks with Jane Hales, co-founder of Sapio Research, strategic partner for Seamless.AI, and most recently, founder of partofthe.team, about developing effective digital transformation strategies for businesses. Hales brings significant expertise in helping companies optimize their technology and processes, successfully systemizing Sapio Research to run efficiently without her daily involvement! McKinney and Hales discuss how companies create operational gaps between changing business strategies and updating processes, usually a drastic difference of four to five years. Organizations face common challenges, such as unused software licenses, failed CRM implementations and the tendency to focus on edge cases rather than common scenarios. "About a third of [a company’s] software licenses and apps [are wasted],” Hales explains. “If you could put a third extra revenue or profit on your bottom line, wouldn't that be fantastic?" They also discuss the value of bringing outside expertise to optimize existing technology investments rather than constantly adopting new solutions. Hales emphasizes the importance of understanding and documenting processes before attempting to automate or transform them digitally. Her methodology includes practical solutions that enhance digital transformation customer experience, such as screen recording routine tasks for documentation, building process libraries for onboarding and training, and integrating core systems (what she calls "hero packages" - CRM, CMS, and project management systems) Sponsors: Priscilla McKinney here, CEO and Momma Bird at Little Bird Marketing.

  • Is CSV the new NPS?
    Oct 1 2024
    Don't crack open that old business textbook, because we got you covered! On this episode of Digital Transformation Success, host and CEO, Priscilla McKinney, speaks with Rogier Verhulst, Senior Director at LinkedIn, and Marco Vriens, CEO of Kwantum, about the groundbreaking metric, Customer Surplus Value (CSV). As further described in the Harvard Business Review article entitled “Why You Should be Tracking Customer Surplus Value”, CSV measures how much customers would need to be compensated to give up a product or service, providing insights beyond the traditional Net Promoter Score (NPS). While NPS has long been the standard for measuring customer feedback, CSV offers unique advantages: it provides concrete dollar values that executives can easily understand, it's less affected by cultural biases, and it's particularly useful for measuring value in digital and freemium products. When used together, these metrics tell a more complete story in behavioral marketing - for instance, AT&T's low NPS but high CSV indicates customers might be unhappy but find it difficult to switch providers. "If your consumer surplus value is five dollars, but the consumer pays two dollars for it,” Vriens explains. “[Customers] are going to be happy because they're going to get more value than they're giving up. But if the consumer surplus value is two dollars, but they're paying five dollars, then you're going to have to wonder: are these customers going to stay customers?" They also discuss LinkedIn's experience using CSV to evaluate premium versus free features, future applications in brand research, and how this methodology could revolutionize the way businesses measure the dollar value of brand associations built through advertising campaigns.
