Not Establishing a Standardized Taxonomy or a Data Governance Process<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From the very beginning, it is essential that your taxonomy is standardized across the organization and that a data governance process is in place. This means not only having a taxonomy that follows best practices but also establishing processes and rules for when new team members want to add events to Amplitude.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are some tips to consider when defining your taxonomy:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Make it understandable for anyone in your organization.<\/b><b>\n<p><\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><b>Don\u2019t:<\/b> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Screen 1 Onboarding Step 4<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<p><\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><b>Do:<\/b> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Onboarding Started<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<p><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Follow a consistent taxonomy, considering capitalization, spacing, language, and even verb tenses.<\/b><b>\n<p><\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><b>Don\u2019t:<\/b> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Onboarding_started \/ onboarding complete<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<p><\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><b>Do:<\/b> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Onboarding Started \/ Onboarding Completed<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<p><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Maintain the established rules for new events.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Ensuring consistency over time is crucial for reliable data and governance.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<p><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><b>2. Not Assigning a Data Governor Within Your Organization<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Closely tied to the previous point, and a critical part of the data governance process, is the need for a <\/span><b>Data Governor<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> within your organization.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Data Governor is responsible for ensuring data reliability and making sure that taxonomy, events, and properties comply with predefined requirements and rules. This role also involves answering questions related to your data.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>3. Implementing Events for Every Action in Your Product<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At first, it\u2019s common to think that all user interactions are important. But if everything is important, nothing is important.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some recommendations when deciding what to implement:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Ensure your events and properties answer key business questions that provide value to your organization.<\/b><b>\n<p><\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, if you want to know how many sign-ups you had in a month by country, you need an event that tracks user registrations and includes a country property.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<p><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Start with no more than 15 events.<\/b><b>\n<p><\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your events should align with your use cases\u2014there\u2019s no need for 50 events to understand your onboarding flow! Setting a limit per use case simplifies your implementation, initial analysis, and even your QA process.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<p><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Make sure each event provides value.<\/b><b>\n<p><\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before adding an event, ask yourself: <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What would I do if this event&#8217;s numbers suddenly dropped or spiked?<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> If the answer is <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">nothing<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, then the event probably shouldn\u2019t be in Amplitude. Many organizations implement events just for the sake of it and struggle to make data-driven decisions because those events don\u2019t truly impact their business.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<p><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you&#8217;re considering implementing Amplitude in your organization and don\u2019t know where to start, we can help. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CSMs have a daily goal of helping customers implement Amplitude so they can unlock its full potential and achieve their objectives\u2014whether that\u2019s understanding their customers better, identifying which product features perform best, or finding areas for improvement in a funnel.
