The most successful teams in analytics can resist the urge to supply data just for the sake of it. Vanity metrics and descriptive data won’t help a functioning team make demanding, imperative direction-finding decisions. If an agency isn’t able to deny such requests, it will be sucked into serving them, which is not the most efficient use of their time.
It’s easy to fall into bad habits if you don’t have clear guidelines. It’s important to have an analytical framework in place that will ensure that reports are built with purpose and a consistent framework that is understood by all employees of the agency.
When constructing an analysis, it is essential to provide the right context so that clients understand the importance of the results. For instance, presenting the results within a specific benchmark or campaign goal will help to increase the value of the information that are provided. It’s also important to limit the number of metrics that are included in a particular report. Too many metrics can cause information overload and confusion.
To prevent data overflow and backlog, it’s important to regularly run reports. A regular schedule of reporting will allow teams to focus on the current status of the product and spot errors, fraud signals or errors before they can cause serious damage to the business. This is particularly important for businesses that rely heavily on third-party software and have complex data sets that don’t always sync seamlessly.
