IS BIG DATA REPLACING INSIGHTS?
A deep understanding of customers is critical to finding unmet needs, but it’s difficult to scale.
24
Solving for the next big thing is a highly ambiguous problem.
PAST ≠ FUTURE
25
CAN WE DO THIS WITHOUT BIG DATA?
CAN WE DO THIS WITH DATA ALONE?
26
BIG DATA = GOBS OF UNTAMED CUSTOMER INFORMATION
It’s data exhaust of credit cards, web searches, and mobile pings, etc., that we’re unconsciously emitting daily

EXAMPLE: WAZE What could they know? • Where congestion tends to happen • Actual average speeds on every road in America • Where construction is being done • Where police are and when • How fast I drive • Where I am right now • Places I like to go • How well I follow directions • Where I work • If I have children • …
What do the give me in exchange for this: • Directions • Traffic • Share my ETA
28
WAZE HAS MORE, AND MORE CURRENT, INFORMTION THAN ANY GOV’T AGENCY
29
WHAT IF WAZE TELLS US:
People who avoid driving on highways are 5x more likely to stop at bookstores during the day.
WHY?
30
WE KNOW DATA CAN FUEL DECISION ANALYTICS.
WHAT ROLE DOES IT PLAY IN DISCOVERY ANALYTICS?

How can we use data to find really profound,
powerful insights
