As Keen IO’s Chief Data Scientist, I’ve worked with thousands of companies over the years. Today I’m sharing one of the most impactful lessons we’ve learned in building successful analytics integrations.
Today’s lesson is: take a moment to reflect on what you are trying achieve. Once you are confident about that, your decisions about what data to collect and how to use it fall more naturally into place.
Here’s a mini-worksheet to get you started:
- What’s most important to my company/team right now?
- What are our goals?
- How can data help us achieve those goals?
Write out your answers. Reflect back on them whenever you feel overburdened by the seemingly infinite possibilities for your data. Re-center and drive forward. You’ve got this.
By the way, we’re pretty helpful people over here at Keen IO. Maybe we’ve already solved a problem like yours and we can help you do it faster.
