Big Data That Measures Up


Measuring the impact of sales and marketing efforts based on incomplete, inaccurate, untimely, and disparate data makes it impossible to determine true success and ROI.

Determining where, how, and why sales and marketing dollars should be spent is even harder.

Step out of the data silos and away from the spreadsheets. Focus your time on leveraging fact-based insights, not on data-gathering. Unify your data—and sales and marketing teams—with a single, scalable retail sales analytics platform. Enable informed, collaborative decisions with your retailers and within your company's own four walls.

TESTIMONIALS

“Retail Velocity and its VELOCITY® platform have been a real strategic asset for us. In addition to bringing on additional revenues, we also credit VELOCITY with our ability to give our customers tangible proof of our impact on their bottom line and prove our value to them over time. Our customers want to know how we can do all the things we do—how we provide the timely and accurate reporting no one else can. That's a huge competitive advantage, and we credit VELOCITY®."
-Vice President of Sales, National Sporting Goods Supplier
“It’s all about greater visibility. The VELOCITY® platform lets us share information internally and with retailers more quickly, which lets people make better decisions and react more quickly to sales opportunities or critical issues. For example, we’re able to easily identify a retailer’s top 200 stores and if there’s a sale next month, I can tell them that we should send these stores extra product because they ran out the last time. I can even identify a list of stores that don’t have any of our products on their shelves, and that’s really free money we don’t want to lose.”
-Senior National Account Manager, Global Home Essentials Company
“With VELOCITY®, we’ve created a much more efficient process that drastically reduces the time we spend getting and analyzing retail data. Because the process used to consume so much personnel time, sales and marketing teams sometimes went without having all the data they’d have liked to have. That doesn’t happen anymore.”
— Sr. Manager, Consumer Shopper Insights, Global Apparel Manufacturer
