Posted by Meghdutt Brahmachari, Product Marketing Manager, Google Enterprise When it’s raining out, do people’s shopping habits change? Those are the kind of questions the team at Interactions Marketing, working with Tableau Software, think about when analyzing massive data sets on behalf of retailers. In a highly competitive market, retailers need the edge they can gain from business data – and with the analysis they can generate using Google BigQuery. By analyzing these data sets, you can find what Interactions Marketing calls “unexpected insights,” which help businesses make predictions that can improve sales. For example, they look at how external factors like the weather will affect retail sales.
Find out more about the value of Big Data and unexpected insights for retailers – and how Google BigQuery supports these analytics projects – in our
