Digital Marketing Trends 2023- Shereen BadrShereen Badr
We’re nearing the End of 2022 – that means preparing for your 2023 marketing game plan. Digital marketing topics gaining headlines include video content overtaking traditional web content, rising privacy concerns, and sales funnel marketing morphing. I’ve assembled the digital marketing trends for 2023 from a variety of trusted research sources
This document discusses the importance of customer experience and provides an overview of key concepts. It defines customer experience as how customers perceive their interactions with a company. Success requires following a four-phased path from repairing issues to differentiating through experiences. Six disciplines are identified to consistently deliver the right customer experience: customer understanding, strategy, culture, governance, design, and measurement. The business case is that better customer experience can drive higher revenues and lower expenses.
The document introduces the North Star Framework, which is a model for managing products using a single crucial metric called the North Star Metric. This metric best captures the core value the product delivers to customers. In addition, the framework includes a small set of key Inputs that directly influence the metric and that product teams can impact through their work. The three goals of the framework are to help prioritize decisions, align teams, and focus on sustainable growth. The framework consists of the North Star Metric as the single measure of strategy and value, and the supporting Inputs that most directly affect the metric.
The document discusses how product-led growth has become the next evolution of go-to-market strategies, with companies focusing on viral user acquisition, free trials, and bottom-up sales driven by product usage. It provides examples of high-growth SaaS companies that have achieved faster revenue growth rates, higher gross margins, and greater valuation multiples through product-led strategies that prioritize the customer experience.
Product Workshop - Finding Your North Star - handoutAmplitude
The document discusses using metrics to drive product strategy and business outcomes. It recommends defining a "North Star" metric that represents the overall goal, then identifying "input metrics" that are leading indicators of progress toward that goal. Examples are given of how Spotify and other companies break down their North Star metrics into measurable inputs like user growth, engagement, and frequency. The document encourages product teams to understand the business objectives, determine an appropriate North Star metric for their product, and identify ways to measure and influence progress on the inputs that comprise the North Star.

The Customer Success movement has taken the SaaS industry by storm, even requiring an updated SaaS Business Model definition.
But what exactly is Customer Success? Is it an organizational mindset? Is it a corporate strategy? Is it a set of tactics designed to produce happy, successful customers that in turn creates success for you, the SaaS vendor?
The answer is... all of the above.
In this guide I've enumerated 17 key elements of Customer Success for SaaS companies. I hope it helps you reach your goals.
This document discusses how product analytics can inform product strategy. It begins by noting that companies now compete on product innovation and only a small fraction of new apps and products survive. It then provides a framework for using analytics, including:
1. Defining the key metric or "North Star" that drives business outcomes, such as total time spent or number of purchases.
2. Ensuring the North Star aligns with and supports the overall business vision.
3. Breaking down the North Star into input metrics that individual teams can measure, such as new subscribers or content engagement.
The document provides examples of North Star metrics for attention, transactions, and productivity-focused products and illustrates how metrics map to

Due to the limitations of current platforms, Customer Engagement has been forced to become more campaign-driven. They don't provide insights, forcing you to run campaigns on guesswork. Humans, on the other hand, are highly complex creatures. Millions of your customers have a wide range of preferences. Brands must be customer-centric and proactive in their approach to catering to these distinct preferences to gain trust.
So, how do you delight customers if you lack meaningful insights? Our VP for EMEA, Jason Smith, discusses how brands can connect with their customers more personally by using an insights-led approach.
1. The document discusses best practices for customer success, including managing internal processes to deliver solutions, giving customer success managers leeway to build relationships and provide feedback, and meeting regularly with customers.
2. It recommends handoffs from sales to customer success teams, kickoff meetings with clients, onboarding and training new users, and tracking adoption metrics.
3. Additional best practices include gathering requirements, conducting setup, testing, training, and supporting go-live and post go-live activities to ensure proper adoption of new products and features.

Success in the Cloud requires 3 things:
1) A Compelling Value Proposition

Product Led Growth (PLG) focuses on making the product the primary marketing vehicle through a frictionless user experience and engagement features that drive organic growth. It involves tearing down barriers to try the product, using data to improve the product, and empowering end users to influence potential customers from the bottom up. Companies that adopt this model see the product itself as the platform for marketing and acquisition instead of traditional outbound methods.

Today there is a lot of buzz around customer experience.

L'indice de performance des ports à conteneurs de l'année 2023SPATPortToamasina
Une évaluation comparable de la performance basée sur le temps d'escale des navires
L'objectif de l'ICPP est d'identifier les domaines d'amélioration qui peuvent en fin de compte bénéficier à toutes les parties concernées, des compagnies maritimes aux gouvernements nationaux en passant par les consommateurs. Il est conçu pour servir de point de référence aux principaux acteurs de l'économie mondiale, notamment les autorités et les opérateurs portuaires, les gouvernements nationaux, les organisations supranationales, les agences de développement, les divers intérêts maritimes et d'autres acteurs publics et privés du commerce, de la logistique et des services de la chaîne d'approvisionnement.
Le développement de l'ICPP repose sur le temps total passé par les porte-conteneurs dans les ports, de la manière expliquée dans les sections suivantes du rapport, et comme dans les itérations précédentes de l'ICPP. Cette quatrième itération utilise des données pour l'année civile complète 2023. Elle poursuit le changement introduit l'année dernière en n'incluant que les ports qui ont eu un minimum de 24 escales valides au cours de la période de 12 mois de l'étude. Le nombre de ports inclus dans l'ICPP 2023 est de 405.
Comme dans les éditions précédentes de l'ICPP, la production du classement fait appel à deux approches méthodologiques différentes : une approche administrative, ou technique, une méthodologie pragmatique reflétant les connaissances et le jugement des experts ; et une approche statistique, utilisant l'analyse factorielle (AF), ou plus précisément la factorisation matricielle. L'utilisation de ces deux approches vise à garantir que le classement des performances des ports à conteneurs reflète le plus fidèlement possible les performances réelles des ports, tout en étant statistiquement robuste.

2. Choosing a North Star Metric
For Sustainable Growth The S Curve of Business Growth
The North Star Metric is a single metric, or
set of motion metrics, that a company
uses to focus at each stage on the S Curve
of Growth.
The North Star Metric needs to:
● Be easy to understand at every level
● Reflect that "a-ha" moment of
customer value
● Lead to correlated growth of your
North Star Goal.
● Be measurable and progressive &
tied to Lifetime Value

4. The Dangers of Focusing on One Universal
North Star Metric.
“The search for one key metric for a complex ecosystem like
Pinterest over-simplifies how the ecosystem works and prevents
anyone from focusing on understanding the different elements
of that ecosystem. You want the opposite to be true. You want
everyone focused on understanding how different elements
work together in this ecosystem. The one key metric can make
you think that is not important.
- Casey Winters, Former Head of Growth at Pinterest
5. The Foundation for the North Star Metric.
Data visualization which is done with LTV
in mind keeps your business pointed in
the right direction, you can steer your
team towards success rather than down a
path of obsolescence.
Having a similar means of visualizing
data around your North Star Metric
makes it possible for your entire company
to see how each project, process, or tweak
they make impacts the greater goal.

of users or against competitors.
Analyze movement over time.
Mind-map metrics from input to

Understand behavioral shifts via
motivational triggers.
Comparative Understandable
A Rate or Ratio Actionable & Behavior
Changing
14. Using comparative metrics speaks
clearly to our definition of “movement
towards business goals.”
The savvier you get at speaking in
comparative metrics rather than
absolute metrics, the more growth-
oriented and minded you’ll become.
You’ll be able to tell a better story
with your data to your team.
Understanding Comparative Metrics.
Comparative
15. At RocketSource, we’re advocates for and
experts at simplifying the complex. When it
comes to which metrics you should be
tracking in your business, we believe that
they should err on the side of understandable
rather than overly complicated.
If people can’t remember the numbers you're
focused on and discuss them effectively, it
becomes much harder to turn a change in
the data into a change in the culture.
Democratizing Data With Understandable
Analytics.
Understandable
16. Ratios and rates (unlike absolute
numbers) give you a more realistic
health check for your business. As a
result, they’re easier to act upon.
Having visuals and metrics to compare
and contrast what’s happening in
specific areas of your business or
customer’s journey will help you
identify where you can improve and
where you need to focus your
resources.
Leveraging Rates + Ratios.
Do you (your employees) have a clear
idea on what they should be working
towards on a weekly basis?
Do you have a clear idea on a weekly
basis as to how to measure your work?
Do you have a clear idea on a weekly
basis as to how your work aligns with a
common strategic goal?
Do you have a clear idea on a weekly
basis as to how your work aligns with a
common metric to achieve a strategic
goal?
17. The metrics you track must inspire some
sort of change in behavior if they are to
make a difference.
Data and analytics are the raw
ingredients of KPIs and metrics. Surges in
data volume, velocity, variety, and
ongoing algorithmic innovation will
require organizations to continually
revisit the fundamental elements and
attributes of their KPIs and metrics.
Actionable + Behavior Changing Metrics.
Actionable & Behavior
Changing
18. The best data is qualitative that can be quantified. Qualitative data showcases
behaviors and motivations. It’s more emotional and harder to put a number to.
Qualitative data, however, is anything you can track numerically. It’s used more
often to understand what’s happening and visualize broader trends.

20. Both types of metrics have their place in
business growth. When considering your
North Star Metric, it’s important to lean
more towards a leading indicator so you
can get out ahead of any problems
before they arise.
It’s required you understand the macro
headwinds and tailwinds if you want to
get really good at building models

22. Before you can identify a solution to a
problem, and a North Star Metric to
monitor your progression towards that
solution, you must understand your
customer’s perspective.
This starts by looking at the center of the
circle and moving outwards. Customer
Experience isn’t defined by one single
interaction with a brand. It’s the sum of
many interactions, behaviors, and
decision-making elements.
Understanding Your Customer Through
StoryVesting.
23. This partnership made sense across all
layers of StoryVesting. Both brands
understood customer sentiment, the
competitive landscape and consumer
discretionary spending.

the combined brand functionalities left their

26. If you’re making decisions rooted in the StoryVesting framework, then you must
start at the back of the funnel, which is left more open for questioning.
A Quality North Star Starts With Retention in Mind.
Since we already know so
much via Crunchbase,
SimilarWeb, Moat, HotJar, etc.
this part of the funnel
requires less focus and

● Measureable
● Correlated with Growth
● Simple to Understand
● Objective + Controlled

32. Understanding what’s out of
alignment will help you better
assess what needs to shift in your
business, and which metrics you
need to be focused on in order to
drive those shifts and monitor their
success.

33. We can start to identify gaps in
alignment by differentiating two
sets of circles using same colors as
the StoryVesting concentric circles
to help separate the two sets of
data.
Our goal is to move these out of
No Man’s Land and into alignment
by bringing them as close together
as possible. It’s only when more
gaps are filled and more sets of
data are aligned that you can
grow revenue.

34. Aligning Your Business Model & the Customer Journey
to Find Your North Star.
Together, the North Star Metric
must continuously be aligned with
your Bow Tie Funnel’s open circle
that states why someone stays
with your business.
It must be measurable, highly
correlated with growth and
success, simple to understand,
objective but within your control,
and constantly evolving at your
company’s S Curve inflection
points.
35. Revenue Acceleration Via a North Star Metric.
Many companies live in legacy-
style thinking. They’re conversion-
focused, looking exclusively at
metrics like Cost Per Lead (CPL),
Cost of Acquisition (CAC), and
Return on Investment (ROI).
While there’s room for that type of
analysis and those metrics
certainly have their spot in
revenue acceleration, we like to
look closer at intelligent
operations instead.

36. Metrics Which Reinforce Value Proposition & Revenue
Acceleration.
Sales Cycle
Monitor how changes impact
your sales cycle as new
strategies are implemented
and new goals are determined.
The amount of time it
takes to close a deal.
Increase/Decrease of Sales
Cycle
Lifetime Value (LTV)
How much you can make
from your customers over
their lifetime of buying
from your business.
LTV:CAC Content Engagement
How someone behaves with
your business, your content,
and/or your deliverable.
How much you’re
bringing in per employee.
The LTV ratio to CAC helps
determine if you’re allocating the
right amount of resources
effectively to drive long-term
retention.
Revenue per Employee or
Contractor
37. More Metrics Which Reinforce Value Proposition &
Revenue Acceleration.
Month-over-Month
Revenue per Employee
How well your value
proposition, strategy and
operations are still aligned.
How well you’re staying in
momentum, and if the model
is still viable based on your
motion.
Repeat revenue expansion per
client shows how much revenue
we’ve seen grow per client on a
monthly basis.
Back revenue expansion up
against CAC to better
understand your growth

38. Revenue Acceleration Via a North Star Metric.
There will be times when your
company starts to transition into a
new constellation of metrics. Of
course, as that shift happens, your
North Star metric shifts too.
A shift isn’t a bad thing. It brings
on new scaling opportunities, and
with those new opportunities, you
must make changes to the way in
which you forecast and deliver
accurate results.

Every time we help our clients
optimize their input metrics, North
Star Metrics and North Star Goals,
we do so through the lens of
StoryVesting and the other
frameworks.
Ultimately, when you get your
North Star Metric, it’s going to stay
with you until your next
switchback, pivot or place along
your S Curve of Growth.
