Do you know where your business is heading? How do you measure growth? Most business owners or leaders would say, “Of course we know where we’re heading; if revenue is up, we’re growing.” However, to understand where your business is really heading, it’s not enough just to measure revenue – measuring customer success is essential. More revenue is the desired outcome, a loyal customer base is the primary indicator of success.
On a scale of 1-10, how much does your company value customer advocacy? To tell you the truth, viewing customer advocacy as anything less than a 10 (major business priority) means that your company is likely missing out on opportunities to reduce customer acquisition cost, boost brand awareness, and increase revenue. That’s why customer advocacy makes up ⅓ of Revenue Operations, along with lead generation and sales conversion. It’s a vital part of business growth!
An effective Chief Revenue Officer is an integrator. A successful facilitator. A tech-savvy leader who is the champion of companywide objectives across all departments. Ultimately, a CRO knows when, where, and how to ensure anything and everything that affects revenue outcomes – all people, process, and data – is on track.
In today’s dynamic global economy, we all know that change is constant and increasingly faster. Your company’s ability and agility to adjust quickly to market changes impacts your revenues and profitability, especially when it comes to pricing and price changes.

No matter how you slice it, you can’t afford to NOT be on social media. Yes, even you, B2B companies. Regardless of what you sell and who you sell it to – I’ll re-state what we at Atomic Revenue continue to drive home to our clients – you are selling to people. And what do people do when they are not working? How do they communicate with their peers and family, learn new things, keep an eye on their industry, get to know new people at companies, and become inspired? Social media. No matter what products or services you offer, you can benefit from B2B social media marketing.
