What’s in Your Big Data? Connecting the Dots in Your Sales Data to Drive Growth
Presented by: Julie Fraser, Principal, INYO Advisors, Radhika Subramanian, CEO, Emcien
Date: Wednesday, July 25, 2012
Time: 2:oo – 3:00 pm
What’s all the hype around big data? In a recent study, CapGemini reported that leveraging Big Data to solve business problems will deliver 41% improvement in overall business performance over the next three years. However, most companies are still struggling to figure out how to leverage this data.
Join Radhika Subramanian, CEO, Emcien Corp. and Julie Fraser, Principal, IYNO Advisors, to discover how product and marketing managers can tap the power of pattern-based analytics to improve visibility across the product line based on customer buying patterns. The analysis of product data – along with sales, revenue and cost information – improves strategic decision-making because it reveals exactly which configurations customers are actually buying, highly popular feature combinations by segment, and then automatically optimizes the product mix to satisfy the demand most profitably.
Sales and marketing managers can discover how they can leverage these optimal configurations to boost sales, bundle and promote products and services as well as reduce lead times. Leveraging big data to sense and shape demand is already serving as a major competitive advantage for companies in manufacturing, telecommunications, retail and distribution. To see how it’s being deployed across departmental silos, Ms. Subramanian will share case studies from NCR and AGCO.
