Business Intelligence Is CRUCIAL To Develop Your Company

 

Taking the time to gather necessary data, including customer trends and monitoring what your competitors are doing, will ensure data-driven decisions keeps your business developing for the better.

Online food delivery business, Deliveroo utilises business intelligence and more specifically machine learning to ensure their customers have the best experience with them. Customer feedback, via their app, is monitored by their operations team. This data is then shared with every business user in the company. They can then understand and act on problems as they occur to ensure Deliveroo is the app of choice ahead of its competitors. (Source: Outside Insight)

Digital platforms are available to speed up how you can track and monitor the statistics that are vital to your business. Data dashboards, such as what can be made using Google Data Studio use connectors and plug-ins to automatically gather the information you rely on to improve your marketing efforts, sales pipeline and reporting processes. The fresh food company, HelloFresh succeeded in saving around 10 to 20 working hours each day with its Tableau-powered automated reporting tool along with increasing conversions with its optimised marketing content. In another case study, a major retail company was able to grow its sales by 24% and reduce the attrition of sales reps by 90% through the use of data and business intelligence in marketing (source: Medium)

 

How You Can Use Business Intelligence

 

Business intelligence tools can help your business to monitor and observe data trends and generate marketing ideas for an effective decision-making process. They aid in making the best choices and goals for the benefit of your business.

  • DATA DASHBOARDS

A whole range of dashboards are readily available for all your needs. Using connectors such as those available with Supermetrics and importing them into templates on Google Data Studio you can quickly and easily collate reports on paid marketing campaigns that you may be running. The quicker you can do this, the quicker you can optimise your campaigns to improve their results!

  • CONSUMER DATA

Do you know when most of your sales occur? Or the time of day your customer is more likely to get in touch with you? You should be! Having records of this will enable you to track trends that can inform important decisions such as when to launch a new advert. Or when not to release a promo code that could influence when purchases are made. To add to this, you may have heard of using Google Adwords to hyper-target your promotions but did you know you could be using time-targeting to control when consumers see your advert? There’s no point your advert being viewable from 10pm – 6am if your customers are most active between 7am – 8pm. It’s time to stretch your budget to ensure your campaigns are achieving maximum results.
