What if it's built on
assumptions-not facts?
FP&A | RevOps | GTM | Strategy
There's no easy way to say this, but it's true.
Correlation ≠ Causation
"We ran that new ad and sales spiked 30%”. Sound familiar? Ask instead: How do you know it was the ad? Did you control for time-lags or market tailwinds? Spoiler: the real driver often lives outside your report’s date range.
The hidden risks of assumptions
GTM spans Sales, Marketing, Product, CS & beyond. Everyone’s racing to look good. That leads to feel-good correlation salads. But when those narratives don’t match the data, FP&A and RevOps leaders lose credibility one meeting at a time.
Shark attacks ≠ ice cream sales
Both spike in summer, but one doesn’t cause the other. Your GTM numbers can look related too, until you dig deeper.
Consider these horror stories:
- CMOs with an 18 month shelf life
- Millions poured into campaigns that didn't move the needle
- "Correlation-jenga" narratives collapsing mid-fiscal yr
When those flawed stories reach the CFO, FP&A and RevOps leaders lose trust, budgets stall, and seats at the table vanish.
It's time to tune into the real signal.
