This week, I wanted to show you another simple yet effective revenue analytics technique to steer sales behavior in the right direction and drive Gross Profits.
Why is it essential to understand the business impact of Price changes and Promotional investments, and what are the analytical approaches to estimating Price elasticities?
With continued data proliferation and the democratization of popular Machine Learning methods among the data analyst community, knowing your Price and Promotional elasticities at the Customer-Product level is fundamental to Finance, Sales, and Revenue management.
Below is a quick guide summarizing a previous Revology Analytics article that demonstrates why healthy Customer Data is crucial to enabling powerful Sales Growth Analytics for companies. It also highlights steps you can take today to translate your CRM data into Revenue & Margin Growth.
A brief example of how visual analytics using Sales & Pricing metrics can be powerful in driving real, measurable change for your company.
Price leakage is a big problem for most Manufacturers and Distributors and can have a considerable adverse effect on their Operating Profits. One of the big reasons price leakage occurs is not having an adequate Margin Analytics Platform deployed and used across the organization. This means no effective measurement systems track discounts and rebates versus guidelines or strategies.
In this brief guide, we will discuss how to build a robust in-house solution, leveraging standard technologies you are familiar with. Most executives in charge of Pricing/Margin are hesitant to go down the margin analytics platform path, thinking it will take years and $ millions to implement. We will show you how to achieve 80-90% potential value realization using simple techniques and analytical methods.
Many middle-market companies are struggling to do action-oriented Commercial Analytics on a real-time basis. Understanding Sales, Pricing, and Margin performance vs. corporate objectives and strategies, along with proactively identifying and quantifying quick wins for improvement, is often a multi-day reactive, knee-jerk exercise. Pricing, Finance, and Commercial leaders are reticent to invest $MMs in turnkey price analytics solutions given high costs and long lead times – not to mention lack of flexibility and adoption issues that often yield a suboptimal return on investment.
Fortunately, you can do most of the above quickly, effectively (and cheaply!) using popular self-serve BI solutions like Tableau or Power BI.
Unproductive inventory often accounts for 20-30% of wholesale businesses’ merchandise. For many, it’s just the cost of doing business. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Unproductive inventory ties up your cash, erodes your profitability, and puts you at the risk of not meeting debt obligations for your asset-backed loans. Automated markdown pricing is one of the most effective ways to address this problem, and simple analytical solutions (no “ML and AI) can often yield significant benefits. Learn more below how.

Fixing our CRM data hygiene should be a top leadership priority to drive sales productivity and revenue growth. However, for many B2B environments particularly in Manufacturing and Wholesale, there’s often a big disconnect between strategy and execution. Companies spend a disproportionate time and investment on market research studies to understand their buyer archetypes and personas, only to stop at great Power Points, executive updates and cross-functional pontifications.
Meanwhile, the CRM systems are plagued by outdated and missing data and no value- or needs-based segmentation information, which lays the foundation for automated lead scoring or prescriptive capabilities like upsell, cross-sell or churn mitigation.
Now is the time to act and start treating our holistic CRM data with the attention and priority it deserves!

As the US went into a lockdown in early 2020, key retail segments suffered tremendously, but with many recovering and accelerating their performance thanks to stimulus checks and the pent-up need for consumers to be out & about again.

In a previous article, I wrote about the three main structural challenges that data scientists and their organizations face when maximizing their career satisfaction and business impact (data ROI).
This edition of Revology Analytics Insider will dive deeper into the first impediment (“mismatch between data scientist aspirations and corporate reality”). We’ll decompose why it exists and make concrete recommendations to the data science community and company leaders on how to best address it.
Companies are in the business of making money, and most often they care about maximizing their Revenues, Gross profit or Operating income. One of the biggest challenges companies face is the ability to correctly and systematically diagnose and isolate the individual drivers of key business performance changes and build fast, surgical actions to increase profitability. This week I talk about the benefits of doing a proper price-cost-volume-mix analysis for your business, and get you started on building a production level application with analysis examples and explanations in Excel and R.
