Why Your Business Should Pursue Advanced Analytics

Understanding the specific needs and preferences of various customer groups can determine how an advertising or sales campaign performs.

Want to figure out what products your customers may like? Or how you can adjust your pricing to drive increased sales over the next six months? Techniques with data analysis can help you better understand these elements of your customer base and achieve these objectives.

Effective use of data is also critical to understanding areas of improvement and optimization across business operations.

Want to understand where your medical supply company is least efficient with its resources? Or where you can optimize your supply chain operations? Using data effectively can help you to identify these areas for opportunity.

Effectively answering questions such as these can save your company thousands of dollars and allow you to maximize return on your investment.

Companies seeking insights on their operations, ways to pursue automation, or implementing more advanced, leading-edge methods such as deep learning must rely heavily on advanced analytics to achieve these goals.

As businesses of all sizes begin to rely more on these data-based techniques it’s guaranteed that data analytics will become a fundamental aspect of every company’s business strategy.

Every year, the amount of data created nearly doubles, creating petabytes of information that is of no value to most companies. Only an experienced data analyst, data scientist, or business intelligence analyst will be able to take all of this data and create vitally important information for your company and clients. Applying advanced analytical techniques requires the right talent, at the right time.

That’s why Chisel’s cutting edge approach is expertly designed to match your needs with the most qualified data analysts to help you turn data into actionable insights.

The Analytics Spectrum:

There are generally three separate approaches for how data is analyzed and applied.

Least complex and Most Common: Descriptive and Diagnostic:

The most common analytic approaches involve  descriptive and diagnostic analysis, where past performance, such as sales or productivity rates and corresponding decisions, is used to  isolate the drivers of specific outcomes.

This analysis can then be used to understand where the company is performing best, what specific products or services made it attractive to customers, or for finding out where resources were most efficiently applied. Chisel professionals can help to identify and describe these issues.

More complicated, but High Value: Predictive

Descriptive and diagnostic analysis, if effectively done, creates a building block for predictive analysis. Predictive analytics take the outcomes of past events and joins them to current factors to anticipate potential outcomes.

For example, predictive analytics can be used in the foodservice industry to anticipate where and when customer volume will increase and more staff  and other resources may be needed to meet demand. As a simple example, if particular events – weather or other – have historically caused a surge in demand, you can reasonably assume that similar outcomes will occur during similar events in the future.

Predictive analytics also presents significant potential to the financial services sector, particularly when determining which investment opportunities are likely to assign value, and which may underperform based on market factors or events.

Predictive analysis is one of the best ways for your company to understand exactly what is needed and in what area, if performed well by a qualified data analyst or scientist.

Highest value and newest: Pre-emptive
