Identify the 'vital few' that drive the majority of your results.
What's Pareto Analysis?
?The Pareto Principle states that for many events, roughly 80% of the effects come from 20% of the causes. It helps you prioritize!
Often called the "80/20 rule," Pareto Analysis helps you find the most significant factors in your business. For example:
Do 20% of your products generate 80% of your sales?
Do 20% of your customers account for 80% of your complaints?
Do 20% of your marketing channels drive 80% of your website traffic?
By identifying these "vital few," you can focus your efforts where they'll have the biggest impact. Let's find yours!
