tend to listen to outside voices
greater than those inside.

Why ROI is a bad Value Metric
• It doesn’t live on a balance sheet–
If a number doesn’t live on a balance sheet it’s
a vanity metric. ROI is an efficiency number
not an effectively number.
• It’s not prescriptive– ROI doesn’t help
executives run their business better. It just
keeps you from being fired.

You’ve got to adopt Weighted Pipeline
• Sales Already Uses it– It’s a value
number your executives already buy into.
• It’s is prescriptive– It shows future
outcomes with a high degree of certanity.
• It is holistic – It accounts for all
experiences, providing the measure for you to
control the full experience.

2: Learn to Stretch
Have a conversation and set up a
stretch budget. This is a budget

access to ONLY if you hit key
metrics. It is doubling down
money.
