Most marketing and sales plans starts with a blueprint of the year before. Then you review status on your KPIs and tweak them slightly so you can feel great about yourself.

Christopher Lockhead, marketeer and author wrote this in a LinkedIn post a while back: Most 2023 marketing plans will be based on a 2022 marketing plan. Instead, try something different.

1)Start with a blank sheet
2)Ask yourself,
3) If we were legendary what would we do in 2023?

We all want to be legendary. To be legendary you need creativity and data. If you have no control of your data, you end up being creative without a cause. Get your data s..t together and start working smarter – not harder (there, I managed to squeeze in a few bullshit bingo phrases too!). Hence my KPI list.

What are the top KPIs for sales, marketing and customer success?
