MenuWhat is the best strategy to improve the analytics for my subscriber CMS platform for my startup?
I have designed and developed a user and subscriber based messenger application that i am launching in the next 2 months. I have added analytics for subscribers to extract basic information to analyse. The reason for not developing a sophisticated analytics function is that the subscriber base is so large and diverse that i want to develop a one for all fit. My intention is to add general improvements to the analytics as subscribers requests are made. Is this a good strategy. My worry is if the analytics are so basic, it might not attract subscribers to subscribe. I am looking for advice from anyone who is experienced in this field.

I think it makes total sense. If you provide some standard dashboards with number of messages over time and similar, you can get everybody started. And it will give you a platform to interact with the subscribers. In my view, that is the cheapest and most low-risk way of developing it - to work with your customers. No way to know now, whether high level of sophistication is needed.
Consider doing your interaction as a blog, a support community or something similar to formalise the interaction. That would push yourself forward as well, and put a face on your service.
If you are cloudbased, you can do frequent launches of small changes in the analytics, and talk about them in your community. Also, consider looking into the thoughts of Design Thinking, which would give you different tools for teasing out the thoughts in your community.
Good luck with your subscription platform!


You might consider doing a free month or two or three.
The people who stay are happy.
The people who go, do an exit interview, asking what you can do to bring them back in the future.
You may find analytics is only important to you.
Tip: Never guess what customers think they need. You'll almost always be wrong. Just ask them. Then provide what they ask for... well... only if many ask for the same thing. If all your exit interviews provide some different answer, ignoring them might be best.
Big Tip: During free period, send some 1x-3x per week email course materials providing tips/tricks/traps for using your tech. In each of these email, just ask... "What features can make your life easier, that we can add to our platform."
Again. Never guess. Just ask.


Another reframe could be finding ways to make your basic analytics useful. If a subscriber sees a certain piece of data, what does that tell them they should do? Even the most basic data can be incredibly useful if paired with useful suggestions. I don't know much about your app, of course, but this is just a thought.


I understand you developed application where you need to add Reports/Analytics for your subscribers to access. You need below steps
1. Business Intelligence report embedding with Single Sign on(SSO) with your application.
2. BI tools may be Power BI/Tableau/Google Data studio.
3. You need a Analytics where multi user can login the same dashboard but with user security (Each user can only look at their own data)
One of the biggest impact you can make with BI reports are flexibility, Interactivity and you can also charge customer who required custom Reports(At some point, they required anyways). Most of the biggest winners in the market use BI for acquiring more customers.
This is Power full example for Advanced Analytics

Have u ever heard Business Intelligence Reports services starting from $1,000?


The number of data sources that are available is growing every day. For some of us this might be a good thing, but for many digital marketers it brings up a lot of challenges to deal with. 70% of business executives say sales and marketing analytics are already very or even extremely important. The job of a digital marketer and analyst is not to come up with a lot of fancy-looking reports that contain tons of data. In my opinion, data is just input. You need to answer what the numbers mean to your business and what action should be taken to improve the most important metrics of the business. Every business is different and should be treated in a unique way. You need to think in advance about what is important for your business. You can easily waste hours of your time by getting lost in your data. And coming up with “insights” that are already known or not deemed important can be highly frustrating as well. Digital analytics tools like Google Analytics come with a lot of built-in segments and provide you with all the freedom to customize them to your needs. The way in which you present your data will make a huge difference in the outcome. This will turn your data into insights and profitable business decisions. Treat any obstacles first and improve the communication between the business and analytics leaders.

As an accounting graduate with no money and no connections, how do I start my own consulting firm? And how do I get clIents?
STOP. DO NOT DO THIS.... I would never want help from someone like you. Don't get me wrong -- you aren't evil (that I know about) but you don't seem have any value that I could pay for. What would you be "consulting" a CEO like me about? How do you expect to make my business better when you don't have a clue about your own business? THAT'S THE TRUTH... Fuck the truth. If you want to get clients then you hustle -- every waking moment. You try an angle and fail and then try a different angle. You can't outsmart your way to bigger results. 2 plus 2 does not equal 4 -- it equals you going bankrupt. If you want to be successful then you need to exert massive amounts of effort to get off the ground. So get your ass out there and start asking everyone you meet: "What is that one big accounting question that's been bothering you for some time now? If I can't help you i'll buy you a cup of coffee" Then just go be a badass...

What advice do you give to a 16 year old entrepreneur with a start up idea?
First, hat tip to you for being a young entrepreneur. Keep it up! If you have the funds to build out your MVP, hire a developer and possibly a mentor. If your idea is marketable, you don't need to give up equity by bringing in a co-founder. If this is your entrepreneurial venture, I would recommend you do retain a coach to help you see all the things you may not know. Have you already done your SWOT analysis? Have you identified your target market? What is your marketing plan? What will be your operating expenses? There are lots of questions to ask.

How can I make a million dollars?
First, I agree with Chad in that the pure pursuit of money is unlikely to render anything significant. By using a monetary value as a primary goal, you're only diluting the real drivers of success: passion, crafting great customer experiences, building an incredible team and culture etc. That said, making $1m isn't that hard. :) I love this thinking by Amy Hoy and that's how I would go about making $1m: http://unicornfree.com/30x500. Using that logic, this is what I'd do: * To earn $1m in a year, I need to earn +- $80k a month. * To earn $80k a month, I need 1600 customers paying me $50 per month. * So what can I build that could attract 1600 people to pay me $50? * Or, what could I build that could attract 400 people to pay me $200 per month? This logic works on two drivers: * Cumulative revenue and growth. So SaaS works best in this regard, as you only need to focus on having new signups that are greater than your churn. * Building something that people are willing to (really) pay for and going for quality over quantity. If you are building something that sells for $5 pm, you'll need to sell at much higher volumes (which are tricky). In terms of doing that, these are the areas of my business that I would prioritize: 1. Build an awesome team that do things they're passionate about. 2. Prioritize customer experiences above anything else. Do everything in your power (regardless of whether it can't scale) to add value and help your customers. 3. Build a brand and reputation that has long-lasting value.
