"Reviewing activities, sales, and product performance, summarizing successful experiences, and providing optimization suggestions" is a basic work requirement for data analysis. However, many students have encountered the situation where their review reports were dissed by their leaders/business, who said:
What should we do? Let me share with you in detail today. 1. Frequently Asked Questions
The reasons are as follows:
In short, we need to go deep into the business details. The specific operation can be divided into five steps. 2. Step 1: Review the achievement of goalsAlthough it is not enough to only look at the main indicators, it is definitely not okay not to look at the main indicators. Not only should you look at them, but you should also look at them first. First, make it clear what the specific business discussed in this review is and what the main indicators of the assessment are. Commonly used, such as:
Here is a special reminder: whether to examine the total volume or the new volume, it must be clearly stated in advance. For example, sales generally look at total sales revenue, but marketing generally requires: exclude natural sales volume/exclude normal levels. So how should we exclude them? Should we look at the time period without activities, or choose a group of people who do not participate in activities/products that do not participate in activities for comparison? We must make it clear in advance! In short, the first part of the review report is to report on the achievement of this goal as usual, and first make a judgment on the overall effect (as shown in the figure below). Step 3: Find a benchmark for comparisonThis step is particularly important! If you only look at a single business entity, you may not be able to draw a deeper conclusion, so you must label it and extract comparable benchmarks for comparison. For example, reviewing sales progress:
Marketing activity reviews are often done in more detail because marketing activities are more flexible. For example, in the same large-scale event, there are multiple traffic sources, multiple marketing rules in effect at the same time, and multiple product activity pages. At this point, you need to comb through the process carefully and sort out the conversion of each process, because it is very likely that the overall input-output ratio is good, but:
These problems will be exposed in the review (as shown below) If it is a product review, please note that product improvements may evolve through versions. For example, if you optimize the APP conversion funnel, each version may have some improvements. In this case, you need to show this evolution process during the review and tell everyone how long it took to run and what the effect was after each adjustment (as shown in the figure below). 4. Step 3: Connect business actions to find process indicatorsThe first step is to know whether we did well or not. Step 2: We know whether this is better or worse than the same category. The third step is to explain why the performance is poor and derive optimization suggestions. In this step, remember to blindly insert indicators, because many indicators are not useful to the business. For example, if you throw a sentence like "During the event, male users participated less...", what then? So what can the business do specifically for men? This kind of things that you don't know what to do after seeing it can be completely reduced. Attention! Business is not as complicated as you think, and many routines are fixed. For example, to increase sales, you can do the following:
When reviewing, pay more attention to: comparing the current action with the benchmark, the differences in indicators in terms of customers, products, and sales behaviors, and summarizing the points that can be improved/developed. For example, marketing activities can:
When reviewing the event, pay more attention to: the outstanding points of the event and summarize the experience. For example, products can do:
When reviewing, pay more attention to: whether there are obvious improvements compared to the previous version, and summarize the experience Step 4: In-depth understanding of differencesNote! Actually, for the review, by the third step, there are already feasible conclusions. However, sometimes, the business will want to further explore: Why was the effect good before, but not so good now? In addition, it is possible that the current environment has changed, and the previous experience can no longer be used, and new practices need to be explored. At this point, you can first determine whether past experience is no longer effective. If you find that:
Well, it is highly likely that the old methods will not work... Especially in 2024, when the overall environment is not good, similar scenarios are likely to occur. At this point, we can only accept the reality and gradually adapt the model to the current situation. When reviewing, it is recommended to start with user grouping, make a more detailed split, and observe:
At this point, you can only gradually optimize based on the current parameters to try to improve business indicators (as shown in the following figure). |
