Top 5 Strategies for companies in Data Analytics & Business Intelligence

Santhosh By  April 19, 2024

Hello there, amazing business owners and leaders!

Do you know that many businesses in Tamil Nadu are using a secret weapon to grow really fast? This secret weapon is called Data Analytics and Business Intelligence. Sounds fancy, right? But it’s actually very simple!

Imagine you have a shop. If you know what your customers like, when they buy, and what they pay, you can sell more, right? Data Analytics and Business Intelligence help you do just that, but for bigger businesses! It’s like having a super smart friend who tells you exactly what to do to make your business better.

We’ve helped many businesses right here in Tamil Nadu use these smart strategies to become super successful. Let’s look at the top 5 ways they did it:

1. Understand Your Customers Better (Customer Insights)

Think about a popular textile shop like “Saravana Stores” in Chennai. They sell many types of clothes. If they use data, they can see which sarees are bought the most during Pongal, or which shirts are popular with young people. By knowing this, they can stock more of what people want and less of what people don’t want. This means more sales and happy customers!

How we helped: We worked with a local bakery, “Achi’s Bakes” in Madurai. By looking at their sales data, we found that their ‘Butter Murukku’ was a big hit with older customers in the evenings. They started making more ‘Butter Murukku’ for evening sales and even put up small boards advertising it specifically for seniors. Their evening sales went up by 15%!

2. Make Your Work Smoother (Operational Efficiency)

Imagine a delivery company like “Speedy Logistics” in Coimbatore. They deliver packages all over Tamil Nadu. If they use data, they can find the fastest routes for their trucks, avoid traffic, and deliver more packages in less time. This saves them money on fuel and helps them deliver on time, making customers happy!

How we helped: We advised a small-scale manufacturing unit, “Precision Tools” in Tiruppur. They used to guess how much raw material to buy. We helped them use data from their past orders to predict how much material they would need. This stopped them from buying too much (which wasted money) or too little (which stopped their work). They reduced their waste by 10%.

3. Make Smart Choices for Your Business (Smarter Business Decisions)

If you’re a builder, like “Green Homes” in Trichy, wanting to build new houses, how do you pick the best spot? By using data! You can see where most people want to live, what kind of houses they are looking for, and what prices they are willing to pay. This helps “Green Homes” build houses that people actually want to buy, in places they want to live.

How we helped: A school chain, “Bright Futures Schools” with branches in Chennai and Vellore, wanted to open a new branch. We helped them analyze data on population growth, family incomes, and existing school numbers in different areas. They chose a spot in a growing neighbourhood of Kanchipuram, and their new school was full of students very quickly!

4. Talk to Each Customer Personally (Personalized Marketing)

Think about an online shop like “Namma Kadai” which sells traditional clothes and jewellery from Tamil Nadu. If you buy a silk saree, “Namma Kadai” can then show you matching blouses or earrings the next time you visit their website. This feels like “Namma Kadai” knows what you like, and you are more likely to buy again!

How we helped: We worked with a local grocery store chain, “Fresh Mart” in Erode. They used to send the same offers to everyone. We helped them use data to see what each customer buys. Now, if a customer buys a lot of organic vegetables, they get offers on organic items. If another buys baby products, they get offers on diapers and baby food. This made their offers more useful, and more people used them!

5. Guess What Will Happen Next (Predict Future Trends)

Imagine a famous sweet shop, “Sri Krishna Sweets” in Coimbatore. By looking at past sales data, they can guess how many ‘Mysore Pak’ or ‘Jangiri’ they will sell during Diwali or any other festival. This helps them make enough sweets so that no one is disappointed, and they don’t waste any sweets either.

How we helped: A farmer’s cooperative, “Kaveri Farmers” near Erode, struggled to predict which crops would fetch good prices next season. We helped them analyze past weather data, market prices, and government policies. This helped them choose crops like turmeric and groundnuts at the right time, which got them better profits than before.

So, there you have it! These are simple yet powerful ways businesses in Tamil Nadu are using Data Analytics and Business Intelligence to grow. It’s not about big, complex computers, but about using the information you already have in a smart way. If you want your business to be the next big success story, start thinking about your data!
