Retail Analytics
What can’t be measured can’t be managed
Use Data to Improve your Sales, Inventory, and Customer Service
Retail is a dynamic, fast moving type of business. Unique to most retail business is the fact that most don’t have a great view on customer data. This means they are making high velocity decisions with incomplete information. Retail is rife with opportunities with many hundreds, thousands, and hundreds of thousands of transactions happening hourly, daily, weekly and monthly. Small incremental improvements have a large outweighed impact on business performance, customer experience, and people experience.
This is where good data, reporting and analytics plays an outweighed key role in driving transformational outcomes.
In retail, speed is key and those that can move faster and make better decisions will have a competitive advantage.

Thoughts
“As a Sales Manager for a Retailer with branches all across Australia, I needed to see my sales reps figures and track them against their targets. The traditional way of reporting (mainly Excel-based) was not easy to work and understand. I needed something more flexible, easy to use, real-time and accessible by mobile. Agile Analytics Power BI Retail dashboards helped us to make our sales KPIs easier to see, so we can plan and take informed actions.”
