Again, this is a hot take: ARR, Renewals, PS, etc. dollars are the only actual metric that matters in our role. Touches, TAL buildouts, marketing campaign participation, etc. is secondary and we shouldn't be beholden to that as a metric of success.
Yes, if someone sucks ass at this job (because this job is not easy and sucks a lot of the time), having crappy metrics means they're not performing. BUT, if you're a performer, or even consistent and closing biz, metrics don't mean anything.
Thoughts?
Add-on: I work in SaaS/Tech so this is something that is part of the day to day, actually super curious if this is industry specific or if it's everywhere
