Weekly News Digest: 22nd - 26th Feb 2021

This is Harnham’s weekly news digest, the place to come for a quick breakdown of the week’s top news stories from the world of Data & Analytics.  Search Engine Journal: 4 ways call tracking is changing (and why it’s a good thing) Call tracking is no longer about a customer seeing an ad, calling up the company, telling them how much they loved the ad and then deciding to purchase goods. This is a positive thing really because it wasn’t the most effective way for businesses to track how well adverts were doing anyway - who really remembers where they saw a billboard that took their interest, or what time of day an advert popped up on the TV? As call tracking technology becomes more advanced, call analytics have become much more accessible for all. Not only have they been able to transform how businesses of all shape and size advertise and track their success, but also how they market to potential audiences and track their sentiment.  This article from Search Engine Journal looks at the evolution of call tracking and call analytics from its most basic form, how it works now and what the future of this crucial set of analytics will look like in the future.  Read more on this here.  Towards Data Science: Data Science Year Zero Skills or qualifications in Data Science are becoming incredibly sought after by many employers, but the knowledge of how to break into the sector is still a little unclear for potential candidates.

This article by Gene Marks explores why teams aren’t happy with their current CRM systems, and how this can be remedied. New research from SugarCRM found: 52 per cent of sales leaders reported that their CRM platform is costing potential revenue opportunities.50 per cent of the companies said they cannot access customer data across marketing, sales and service systems.Nearly one-third complained that their customer data is incomplete, out of date, or inaccurate. While damning statistics, Marks then goes into how this worrying situation can be fixed for good. He says: “Like just about all problems in business, this problem comes down to two factors: time and money. The blunt fact is that most companies are not willing to spend the necessary time or money needed to enable their CRM systems to truly do what they’re designed to do. CRM systems are not just for sales teams. And they're not just for service teams. For a CRM system to be effective, a company must adapt it as its main, collaborative platform.” Read more on this here.

From now on, Twitter plans to move its offline analytics, data processing and machine learning workloads onto Google’s Data Cloud.  For Twitter to be able to process and create correct algorithms based on users’ likes, retweets and comments, a huge amount of data needs to be stored; we’re talking hundreds of petabytes of data and trillions of events.  By partnering with Google, Twitter’s machine learning processes and data-informed decisions will not only be much faster and more efficient, it will also allow the company to create much deeper machine learning innovation.

Weekly News Digest - 1st-5th Feb 2021

This is Harnham’s weekly news digest, the place to come for a quick breakdown of the week’s top news stories from the world of data and analytics.  TechRepublic: Analysts predict Bezos' move to the board won't slow the pace of cloud innovation at Amazon On Tuesday, we learnt that Amazon CEO, Jeff Bezos, is stepping down from his position to take on the role of Executive Chairman on the board. Taking his place in the top spot will be Andy Jassy, who is currently the head of Amazon Web Services. This migration of leadership brings about anticipated antitrust issues, according to Analysts. However, this change in leadership isn’t thought to mark the start of a decline in innovation and growth of their cloud platforms as Bezos will be on hand to guide Amazon’s overall strategy. Jassy’s experience in the cloud arm of the business shouldn’t go unnoticed too. Interestingly, Glenn O'Donnell, Vice President and Research Director at Forrester, said Jassy's time at AWS proved he has the executive chops to take the reins of the bigger Amazon machine. This is definitely something to keep an eye on! Read the full article here. Forbes: The Race To Outsmart The Competition: Adobe Unveils New AI Tools For Retailers More people are shopping online than ever before, and consumers are demanding much more from their online experiences.
