Talks to us to become data-driven:
Industry: Online Education
AJ&Smart specializes in selling product design classes online and creating digital products for businesses around the world. This fast-growing company needs to rely on data to drive their business decisions and facilitate further growth.
TechStack:
In the beginning, AJ&Smart was using sales, advertising, and revenue data from a range of channels to understand the impact of their advertising on sales.
✗ a multitude of advertising systems – most of the data resided in various systems, such as Google, Facebook, and payment processors. Jumping between these interfaces to get insight into business and marketing performance was a time-consuming process.
✗ data is heterogeneous – Data downloaded from different platforms was dissimilar and required excessive resources to combine it and prepare reports that could be used across the teams in the business.
AJ&Smart needed a business intelligence solution that would bring all of their data together, clean it up, and merge it to create insightful reports. Ideally in real-time. However, this would require extensive BI infrastructure (API integrations, ETL service, Data Warehouse, Reporting) as well as the support of a full-scale BI team with a BI Manager, Data Analyst, and Data Warehouse Engineer. At the most conservative estimates, the investment would have been over €150 000/year in infrastructure, consultants, and data specialists, plus it would require about 2-4 months for development.
First and main task for SageData was to align clarify and align all important metrics and KPIs, which were crucial to understanding and driving AJ&Smart’s business and their position in the market environment.
SageData deployed an intelligent BI platform for AJ&Smart by rolling out the best tools for data management, part of SageData’s platform.
