SalesTech Quote-of-the-Week!
Data is prevalent and growing exponentially, but you have to be able to use and analyze it in real-time to make strategic business decisions as things are happening. At the end of the day you have to understand what your customers are doing so that you as a salesperson or marketer can better understand how you’re bundling your product, pricing your product, and then billing on that for your customers. Billing data is powerful because it allows you to really look at your customer base and determine what areas of your product they’re using, where they’re finding value, and even what they don’t like about your product. You can use this insight to identify and attract the ideal customer, better position yourself in your market, and also drive your product roadmap to make your product more aligned with what your customers want. When you know all these things, then you can price strategically on that information.-Paul Lynch, CEO at Chargify

During 2020, we were forced to experience just how capable we are of keeping businesses up and running, all from our homes. While some retail experiences are returning to in-person work, many of the trends that have formed over the past year will remain with regards to online shopping and communication. This trend will continue to drive demand for virtual call centers, leading to more technological innovations to create a more seamless and efficient experience for both the agents and the customers calling for assistance.-Greg Hanover, Chief Revenue Officer at Liveops
