#103 The Data Dilemma: How Bad Data Breaks GTM - with Spencer Hardey, VP of Business Ops at HG Insights

Spencer Hardy, VP of Operations at HG Insights, joins Janis and Philipp to talk about the hidden cost of bad data and how misaligned definitions quietly break go-to-market execution. Together, they unpack why data quality is less a tooling problem and more an alignment problem — and how ICP, segmentation, and shared definitions impact everything from planning to execution to company valuation.

We cover:

Why bad data is fundamentally a definition and alignment problem
The “executive tax” created by misaligned reporting and endless boardroom debates
How inconsistent ICP and segmentation break GTM alignment
Early warning signs that indicate data misalignment across teams
The operational drag caused by poor territory design and handoff friction
Why RevOps plays a critical role in unifying Sales, Marketing, CS, and Product
How bad data impacts forecasting, productivity, and resource allocation
Why data quality and segmentation matter in M&A and valuation discussions
Where companies should start before buying new tools
