Controversial opinion! Analytics isn't about data. Analytics is about processes. Analytics is the science of analysis. Analysis is the process of breaking a complex topic into smaller components so we can understand how they work. If we understand how each sub-element works, we can optimize them, and the whole. Marketing is also a process. That's why marketing is defined as "the art and science of exploring, creating and delivering value to satisfy the needs of a target market at a profit." Collecting and analyzing data is a very popular but certainly not the only method and skillset in the toolkit of a real analyst. If analysts were not so obsessed with #GA4 or other tools, we could shift the focus from data as an end in itself to data as one of many tools in the analytical toolkit. #marketing #digitalanalytics
