Success in any undertaking is usually judged on paper, but sometimes, numbers and data aren’t enough to paint the whole picture. Marketers are naturally inclined to rely on evaluative statistics to assess their progress, but there is a catch.

There are things that statistics cannot measure, such as your marketing team’s determination to reach your lead generation goals. You also cannot measure – with absolute certainty – the level of satisfaction of your clients.

That is why business marketers should avoid being complacent on the current progress of their campaigns. While measurable data can represent the growth and outputs of your marketing activities, it’s still important to check those which can only be measured by allotting personal attention to discuss about the present and future conditions.
