5 things we could do better

1. Enablement, enablement, enablement

2. Operations is a key role – make sure it is resourced properly

3. Involve sales more – they don’t really leverage as much as could

4. Web infra structure underpins everything

5. Don’t overcomplicate campaigns – with gates etc – keep it simple
