There is a LOT of data out there – so how can you make it work for you and your agency?

“There is so much data that agencies can tap into,” says Pam Phillips, founder and MD of accountancy firm de Jong Phillips.

“The starting point to really making it work for you is to make sure your data is aligned with the agency’s strategy. It’s important to get really clear on both your strategy and ambitions.”

“Once you understand that, you can drill down into what levers you can pull to really impact your business.”

“As an example, if your strategy is to grow out a particular service in a particular market, what data do you need to do that? And what do you need to measure to understand if your decisions are then effective?”

In this month’s CFO surgery, Pam will be on hand to help you go beyond the spreadsheet and make the most of your data.
