Who Captures the Data?

must be extracted from operating systems and
analyzed
 Very expensive

company website; not for competitors
How much is too much?
 Level of detail at which the data is captured
depends on the enterprise’s current and future
marketing plans
 Tempting to capture the largest possible number of
variables at the finest level of detail
(“granularity”)
 the marketer doesn’t know exactly what he will need
 possible to aggregate very detailed data but usually
impossible to break out data that was collected at a
higher level of aggregation
How much is too much? Cont.
 Collection and maintenance of data is a significant
marketing expense item; unnecessary detail is
expensive to store and cumbersome to handle
 “The IT shop usually has a kind of pack-rat mentality,
where they want to collect data by default:’If storage is
cheap, let’s go ahead and collect it.’ The IT unit
generally has no sense of how the line-of-business
manager needs to use that data.”
 PeopleSoft aligns business strategy with operations to
help companies react quickly to unexpected changes in
business conditions.
