"Scaling Excellence" set the tone as our Sales Kickoff theme, igniting the energy and sharpening the focus for 2015. Alteryx Associates from around the globe were in attendance – representing North American & UK Sales, Marketing, Client Success and Customer Advocacy. MIP, Alteryx Emerging Partner of 2014, also joined to collaborate in participation throughout the 15 sessions held over three action-packed days.
In speaking with colleagues back at the office this week, here are three things that stand out amidst the vigor and excitement from all who've vowed to "scale excellence" in 2015.
1. Imagine, practice, and experience excellence – then imagine success. Working in tandem with our customers and partners, achieving Analytic Independence is one defining point of success. We're committed to putting the power of data blending and advanced analytics into the hands of MORE data analysts, enabling them to accomplish MORE each day, and solidifying them as MORE valuable to the organizations they support. And that's what Inspire 2015 is all about!
2. Be flexible, things change – Alteryx has really changed the way companies empower line-of-business analysts to gain deeper business insights in just a few hours, rather than weeks and months. There's no denying there have been profound changes in analytics over the past year. And Alteryx Analytics 9.5 proves to be a driving force in the analytics market. Learn more and see a live demonstration by attending the Alteryx Analytics 9.5 webinar on January 29th at 10am Pacific/1pm Eastern.
3. Customers are sacred; wasting time and money is taboo – of course, Sales Kickoff is a time to celebrate individual and team successes. One of the more notable acknowledgements this year relates to customer retention. Overall, our customer renewal rate is considerably higher than industry average. Given that more than 700 customers, including Experian, Kaiser Permanente, Ford, and McDonald's, and 200,000+ users worldwide rely on Alteryx daily, maintaining a customer-centric perspective will undoubtedly prove essential for scaling excellence in 2015.
