What are the first steps to map data flows and integration points?

Inventory all touchpoints (CRM, invoices, events, print jobs), identify the system of record for each, mark push versus pull, export sample records, record primary keys, and map freshness requirements.

How do I centralize data for trustworthy insights?

Use ETL/ELT to land raw feeds and create a cleaned layer with lineage tags, version models, log schema changes, and ensure stable keys for joined records.

How can we institutionalize honest reporting?

Build a KPI catalog with calculations, owners, and raw sources; make dashboards read only for most users, add anomaly alerts, and link metrics back to raw rows for traceability.

How do I embed direct mail into event driven workflows?

Trigger mail jobs from CRM events, assign unique tracking codes, submit via vendor API or batch CSV, and ingest response scans back into the CRM for follow up.

What governance and rollback practices restore team confidence?

Appoint data stewards, define SLAs for ingestion and reporting, require change approvals, version transformations, keep a change log, and run small rollouts with rollback plans.

Which KPIs and cadences should owners track?

Use owner/cadence/KPI pairs such as Integration Lead (one time+quarterly) tracking coverage of touchpoints, Data Engineer (continuous) tracking data freshness, Analytics Lead (daily) tracking report accuracy, Marketing Ops (event driven) tracking postcard response rate, Data Steward (monthly) tracking data issues, and Growth Lead (iterative) tracking CPA and occupancy lift.

What tools and vendors are recommended for implementation?

Start with Google Sheets, Python scripts, or low code tools like Make or Zapier for proofs of concept; move to ETL engines, BI tools, and vendor APIs such as Sage Intacct for invoices and postcard vendors with API support.

How do we scale and clone workflows to new sites?

Confirm the data model covers the new site, clone and run health checks on workflows and APIs, compare KPIs to baseline, run A/B tests, and iterate before wider rollout.
