Part of it fueled by Vendors.

Then I check and manage our Google Adwords campaign and check our analytics/stats.

Why not keep sending emails / spending on AdWords / running affiliate programs / buying display only on MSN. Because you believe that the Web is essentially TV? Now switching to something a bit more near and dear to my heart, analytics "crimes against humanity" 8. We hate change. Super lame! Think of the puppy!

There are few things more complicated in analytics (all analytics, big data and huge data!) I normally ask people to look at the Path Length report in the Multi-Channel Funnels standard report in Google Analytics (or equivalent tool if you are using SiteCatalyst or WebTrends or other web analytics tools).

Identify gaps in our content/engagement/channel strategy on the web, 2. Ditto for PPC, your affiliate links (all likely in the Do stage), and your email marketing programs. Why is it that your Affiliate program is targeted only to the bottom of the Do stage? It does not stop at getting the first B2B contract. Go, win big.

Here's important context (before we get into the rules for revolutionaries)… The Fundamental Web Analytics Problem Is Not Data! Most web "analysts" remain glorified "data pukers" or glorified JavaScript taggers. The problem is not analytics or data (or your blood, sweat and tears).
