Data-driven success lies within the power of simplicity

In an era of data and digital transformation, the best advice for marketers sometimes is that less can be more impactful amid data abundance. Businesses should focus on essential, actionable information rather than overwhelming their systems with excessive tools and reporting. This approach can create a more effective engagement between sales and customers, streamlining the decision-making process.

In this episode of Dun & Bradstreet’s sponsored series, “Data Makes the Difference,” Jen Burns, Dun & Bradstreet’s senior vice president of commercial operations, and Kim Davis, editorial director of MarTech, discuss the critical factors influencing commercial operations and how businesses can adeptly navigate changes to remain competitive.

Tune into the podcast and learn:

• Dun & Bradstreet’s secret to ensuring they are doing everything they can to improve the client experience.
• Three ways to improve operations with data-driven strategies.
• How to best support the changing business needs happening around you.
