From data to business growth: how to turn insights into Action

From Data to Business Growth: How to turn Insights into Action 

Businesses today are generating more data than ever, investing in BI platforms, CRM systems, automation, and AI to improve decision-making. However, despite these investments, many organisations struggle to turn raw data into business growth.  

According to Gartner’s 2024 Data and Analytics Trends Report, the biggest obstacles for data-driven success are not technical limitations, but rather the lack of strategic alignment, the complexity of systems, and the challenge of building trust around data and AI.  

For many executives, the issue isn’t the volume of data, it’s knowing how to translate it into actionable decisions. Overloaded dashboards, siloed systems, and disconnected insights make it difficult to use data as a competitive advantage.  

 

Unlocking Business growth with Data-Driven strategy 

To deliver real value, companies must shift from passive data collection to proactive, insight-led decision-making. This means integrating systems, aligning data with business goals, and embedding a data-first mindset across the organisation.  

Data alone doesn’t create value; its impact comes from application. Organisations must ensure that data initiatives are linked to core business goals such as revenue growth, customer retention, and operational efficiency.  

Current industry analysis highlights the transformative potential of AI within CRM, enabling businesses to personalise interactions, automate processes, and gain valuable predictive insights. The key factors for this successful outcome are: 

• Focus on business-critical metrics, prioritising data that directly impacts revenue, LTV, and retention. 

• Bridge the gap between data and decisions, ensuring AI outputs are clear and usable by business leaders. 

• Embed a data culture with equipped teams, from leadership to frontline, to use data confidently. 

Breaking down silos and unify Data across the Organisation 

Despite widespread digital investment, many businesses still operate with disconnected systems. CRM, AI, and BI platforms often don’t communicate, leading to fragmented views and inconsistent decision-making. 

To overcome this, integrating CRM, AI, and E-commerce platforms can establish a single source of truth across departments, ensuring all teams work with a consistent and real-time view of data.  

Also, by enabling real-time decision-making and providing executives with instant access to AI-driven insights, allows to move beyond static reporting with live dashboards and predictive analytics. 

Prioritizing data governance will also play a part on ensuring data transparency and security, which is particularly important in Europe markets.   

From insights to execution: turning Data into measurable results 

Collecting data isn’t the challenge, acting on it is. Many companies struggle to translate insights into real-world business decisions due to a lack of integration, slow adoption, or resistance to change.  

To overcome these challenges, you have to make insights actionable: 

• Empower teams with tools and training that match their level of data fluency. 

• Make data the starting point, integrating it into the decision-making process. 

• Create feedback loops to continuously improve performance based on outcomes. 

When insights become execution, businesses move faster, reduce costs, and increase resilience, becoming more competitive.
