Analytics and insights

Are the marketing and communications data you collect accurately capturing your audiences’ behavior? For many organizations, the answer is ‘I am not sure,’ and that is why we created our Analytics Health Check. It is better to know what you’re missing and gain confidence in what you have than to build on a foundation that doesn’t provide real insights into audience behaviors. To be successful, your analytics should offer certainty about what is successful in your content and outreach and should serve as a guide in planning and decision-making.

We can evaluate the accuracy, utility, and value provided by your current analytics tools, and return solutions, insights, and recommendations to improve your capabilities. We’ll surface the value of what is hidden in your data, show you where the gaps and missed opportunities are, and walk you through ways to put your data to work. Our Analytics Health Checks are designed to be quick and affordable so that every organization can benefit from a better understanding of the data they have available.

All digital outreach tools are infused with data, yet much of it is lost, isolated, or otherwise disused unless you take steps to harness your data and put it to work. Developing an architecture to understand and assign how information is collected and flows between your systems will augment your professional intuition with data-driven insights and increase your organizational impact.

Analytics Architecture helps you find answers in your data, but more importantly, it helps you start asking the right questions of your data. During these engagements, we will propose the right tools, and also provide details about how they need to be set up and configured so you can be confident that they reflect the reality of how your audiences engage with your content. We’ll then turn your data into targeted insights with reporting tools and procedures that enable staff to make better decisions and accomplish your strategic goals.

If you have much experience in marketing and communications, you have seen the same unique visits, page views and impression reports time and time again, and rightfully begun to wonder what the value of these metrics is and whether there is something more you could be getting from your data. Many analytics platforms are useless until you tailor them to your needs, and teach them what engagement and impact mean to you and your audiences.

With Data Engineering, we can re-architect the collection of systems, existing and new, involved in the collection, storage, and reporting of analytics data throughout your entire organization. What you’ll be left with are dashboards, automated reports, templates, and other tools that minimize the work and maximize the value of analytics at your organization. The right insights in the right hands at the right time means that you and your team will delight in dealing with your data, making it a regular part of day-to-day decision-making.

Our Data Strategy Consultation is focused on creating and sustaining a culture of analytics within your organization while ensuring your data is both easily accessible and understood.

An open consultation can touch upon any one of the many analytics services we provide and is often most effective after Analytics Health Check and Analytics Architecture services. As the name implies, this type of support seamlessly blends with our other strategic offerings, such as Audience Engagement & Acquisition and Strategy and Governance.
