SUMMARY
Alejandra, Monique, Julio and Michael did a meeting to go over some marketing logistics, addressing recent concerns and determining their priorities for the next three months.
Michael and Monique, the new analytic coordinators, started off with a presentation.
Michael said that they had seen some serious improvement in the engagement of the company with their clients in the couple of months before. Because the investment in the social media team had led to some positive growth in the customer base, and the inbound marketing team had made some serious gains in terms of sales.
But he too said that they had run into a couple of problems and needed to develop a new strategy to resolve them.
Then, Monique commented that they had seen a serious fall in the Halloween sales, their competitor had sold nearly twice as many units as they. The reason had been the invasive marketing techniques used. Many clients had reacted poorly to their use of cold calling, email promotions and other outbound marketing techniques.
Julio agreed with them and added that he had understood the clients reactions.
Then Monique said that they would have to invest in more efficient techniques like marketing based on data and search engine optimization.
Next Alejandra commented that as long as they keeped their loyal clients engaged with our new products through social media, they probably wouldn’t have to send them emails.
Then Michael said that they should focus entirely on those new strategies in the next three months.
Next Monique said that a whole new plan for the Halloween sale had been developed but it hadn’t been executed by time. They could implement a similar strategy for the holidays that year.
Finally, Julio, Michael and Alejandra agreed with Monique. They said that they would read the new strategy plan to start familiarizing ourselves with it in the next couple of days, and they would start implementing it next week.

ANSWERS:
Data-informed decisions are important because it helps us to make a real diagnosis of any situation. We make statistics with the data and these statistics are a reading of what is happening. They aren’t assumptions.
This helps us to analyze the outcomes of strategies implemented. For example: you can study the effects of a new strategy of marketing, after a couple of months that it was applied.

Why is it important to make data-informed decisions? How does this help our analytical and problem-solving skills?

First and foremost, taking decisions based on data (numbers and mathematics) is the best choice and the only successfully. It is because you use numbers to identify: profit and loss in a certain period of time. If this range of period is longer, your decision will be more certain.

Furthermore, time ago, before the technology and information era. Companies ere accustomed to take decision based on intuition. Nowadays, you could do it in that way, yet you will have a huge risk.

Finally, learning about Data Science and apply into Marketing strategies will increase profit, sales, engagement, etc. In other words, you will conquer any industry by using data.

Alejandra, Monique, Julio, and Michael had a meeting where they discussed the Halloween sales results. Monique mentioned that despite having good sales results, compared to their competitor Gorilla Products Inc., they had sold only half as much. Julio remarked that it seemed the more they used invasive marketing techniques, the less likely clients were to purchase their products. So, Alejandra proposed getting rid of email marketing altogether, and Michael and Monique agreed that it’s definitely an option to consider. In the end, Alejandra said that she never would have thought ten years ago that the marketing landscape would be transformed so drastically by technology, but she trusted in the team, and she knew they were on the right track.

The role play is about a meeting to discuss the methods to make publicity and marketing. Those methods are evaluated and with some analytic data, they found that methods are not efficient.

Making decisions with analytic data is important because it is a way to see why is failing our product directly from the clients.

My summary:

The team conducted an anonymous survey and discovered that email marketing was perceived as intrusive. As a result, they believe it would be a good idea to rethink the entire strategy.

For this reason, Alejandra suggests that the best option is to stop sending cold emails.

Everyone agrees, and Michael also suggests that it would be a good idea for the team to focus on inbound marketing techniques in the next three months.

• How did the team get the outbound marketing data?
  They did some anonymous surveys and noticed that the clients reacted poorly to the use of cold calling.

• Who suggests ending the email marketing first?
  Monique suggest the idea to invest in more efficient techniques like marketing based on data and search engine optimization.

• What does Michael suggest the team focus on in the next three months?
  Michael suggest they will investment in the social media and inbound marketing team in the next three months.

Alejandra, Julio, Michael and Monique are in a meeting, where Alejandra reviews recent successes and challenges. Michael an Monique highlight positive engagement growth due to social media and sales gains from inbound marketing. However, a disappointing Halloween sale outcome prompts a discussion on the negative impact of invasive marketing techniques. They consider a new strategy for the upcoming holiday season, emphasizing data-driven approaches. The team expresses optimism about technology’s transformative role in marketing, and their commitment to implementing the new strategy is underscored.

Making data-informed decisions is crucial for effectiveness in business. It helps analytical and problem-solving skills by fostering critical thinking, pattern recognition, and systematic approaches to addressing challenges.

Why is it important to make data-informed decisions?

Monik remember how good was the last strategy on Halloween, and they decided to try once more this strategy.

they have a meeting when they discuss their inbound email marketing, the next strategy to make things work. They discover that there seems to be a drop in hallowen sales and they believe it is because of too many marketing emails to customers, so they conclude the best idea is to stop the emails and focus on social media.

My summary:
Alejandra, the marketing leader, were in a meeting with Michael and Monica, who were new analytic coordinators, and Julio who also work with marketing analysis.
Alejandra presented Michael and Monica. Michael said thank you and that they were grateful for the opportunity of working in a great company like that, because is an honor to be in that position, helping them with the analytic information about the customers and sales. Then, Monica started talking about “the bad news”, the statics related to the customer reaction to advertising and how it affected their sales, although having a positive growth in the engagement of the customers and the marketing gains in the last months. Monica talked about their errors and how their competence sold twice than them, and that actual sales are less than expected for halloween season. She argued that the advertising emails were self-defeating because it annoys customers, an information that they got from anonymous surveys. Julio asked, to confirm, if that means that the clients were avoiding buying products of the company due to the advertising through annoying emails. Monica confirmed.
The team of the analytics coordinators detected that a better way to present their products were through social media, this was supported with the information about their competence who made more publicity through social media and unbound marketing.
Alejandra concluded that, based on that information, they should end the email marketing and focus on social media. Julio was agree and he said that he hadn’t thought that different advertising methods would work instead of the emails. Therefor, in the next 3 months, they are going to focus on the marketing for social media hoping better sales results for the next holidays, and in the next week, they decided to look the new strategy.
Michael supposed that, with that new marketing technic they would increment their sales five times, and Alejandra was surprised about how the technology has changed the way to do marketing, but she agreed to carry out the new method, trusting in them.

Why is it important to make data-informed decisions? How does this help our analytical and problem-solving skills?
The data collected from the customers helps a company identify the strategies that are affecting their sales and which are helping them to grow. In that way, they can make decisions so as to reinforce their marketing strategies searching for reach more people and encourage them to buy their products.
This helps our analytical and problem-solving skills because that information give us the necessary parameters to identify what the customers are looking for, how advertising reaches them more easily and what bothers them. Also, it allows a company to recognize how the competence is working and why the are selling more or less than them and, in that way, define methods to improve their sales.
