Marketing and sales databases go hand in hand for a business to see significant growth. For a business to properly track its sales and marketing efforts, the data must be consistently updated and accurate. Otherwise, the company will not be able to identify areas of improvement and make the necessary changes to its sales and marketing strategy. Additionally, a lack of communication and coordination between the marketing and sales teams can result in duplication of effort and wasted time and resources. By maintaining harmony between the marketing and sales databases, a business can avoid these pitfalls and set itself up for success.
