Data is the new gold, but most companies don't know how to mine it.

As a data analytics expert, I help companies make data-driven decisions. My analyses provide valuable insights into my client’s business, customers and markets. This information can be used to better understand customer needs and behaviors, identify opportunities for growth, and support effective decision making.

I am not opposed to short consultations and giving advice, but I prefer long-term cooperation as it is more beneficial for both parties. Each client is at a slightly different stage of data maturity, which is why I offer a range of data analytics services:

• Data analysis — Correct data interpretation is the key to success and leads to better business decisions. As part of the analysis, I can also offer customer segmentation for better targeting, identifying clients who are more likely to purchase additional products, etc.
  With clients, I usually focus on: What categories of content are worth prioritizing on the website to increase sales or improve the user experience? Where do customers go on the site and which source of the visits brings the most loyal customers? What are the customer segments and which segment is the most worth investing right now? Which days and hours are worthwhile for email marketing?
• Reporting and visualization — With interactive reports, data can tell a clear story and make it easier to make informed decisions. I most often create automated reports in Looker Studio or Power BI.
  With clients, I usually focus on: What questions should this report answer on a regular basis? Do the answers help to meet my business objectives? Is the output relevant or does it lack context?
• Audit and data transformation — Despite having measurement systems in place, many clients struggle to extract relevant information due to data disarray. Accuracy is the cornerstone in this regard. Data inconsistencies and inaccuracies need to be fixed. Whether it's an improperly measured site or an ineptly designed data warehouse. Everything can be straightened out and measured correctly — verifiable accurate data is the foundation.
  With clients, I usually focus on: Is there a discrepancy between reality and the measured data? Are there external data sources that need to be connected? Are there duplicates or bot outputs in the data?
• Measurement implementation — Without measurement, you can't make data-driven decisions. When it comes to web measurement, implementing measurement codes and setting up analytics correctly is essential. However, my expertise extends beyond websites. You can measure opened and clicked emails, sales data and competitor pricing, customer satisfaction and much more.
  With clients, I usually focus on: What are your business goals? What do we want to answer with analytics? What do we want to measure and evaluate?

With over 6 years of experience in the field of data analytics, I have had the privilege of working with a diverse range of clients, from startups to companies listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

Notable clients who have benefited from my services include Skoda Auto, Czech Television, CGI and Rossmann. My commitment to data accuracy and precision, coupled with a passion for transforming raw data into valuable business intelligence, has been the cornerstone of my success.
