The proliferation of data tools has been explosive. When looking to activate customer data, many organizations turn towards a Customer Data Platform (CDP). However, those who have adopted the modern data stack find that purchasing a separate, packaged CDP is often unnecessary.

Enter the Composable CDP - an emerging way to leverage best-in-breed tools in your existing tech stack to power your data from the warehouse.

Heap, Hightouch, and Brooklyn Data Co, a Velir company, enable teams to evolve beyond traditional ways of managing large, unwieldy data – by doing it together. Hear real-life examples from Austin Capital Bank (CreditStrong) and how their data, marketing, and product teams are successfully leveraging integrated data to power more insights, and less complexity.

In this webinar, you’ll learn:
- The value of a unified data infrastructure with a composable CDP across marketing, product, and data teams
- How to use Snowflake and Hightouch to enrich Salesforce data without custom fields and resources
- How Austin Capital Bank (CreditStrong) tracked the end-to-end user journey from marketing page to loan application, sending that data downstream to Snowflake, and activating it with Hightouch to perform advanced analysis

The Lean Analytics Plan with Timo Dechau

If your team or company struggles with siloed data, you’re not alone. In our recent benchmark report, a full 86% of teams reported being frustrated by data silos.

Silos happen for many reasons. Teams struggle with technical challenges like insufficient resources or ineffective tools. Cultural challenges play an even larger role: over half of teams identified lack of cross-functional collaboration or communication as the primary causes of disconnected data.

When they persist, data silos pose a real threat to business outcomes. Disconnected data leads to duplicated efforts and increases the risk of uninformed decisions. At the end of the day, this means higher costs and missed revenue.

The good news: while silos come from many sources, and have tangible impacts on your company’s bottom line, there are also many ways to break them down. Hear from Heap expert practitioners as they explore the causes and costs of data silos, and share five effective ways to build a culture of data sharing across your organization.

Viewers will learn:
- Benchmarks from the new “Data Decoded: The Heap Digital Insights Report, 2023”
- The most common causes of data silos - both technical and cultural
- The varying causes and costs of data silos for large versus small companies
- How to understand and communicate the impact of silos on your company’s bottom line
- Strategies for breaking down silos and democratizing data

How to dismantle your data silos: 5 strategies

Capturing the user data you need can be hard. Pulling actionable insights from that data is often even harder. Across industries, teams struggle with similar challenges when it comes to unlocking their analytics.

Heap’s new benchmark report, “Data Decoded: The Heap Digital Insights Report, 2023” confirms these challenges. The survey revealed that 86% of teams have data silos. 94% could be making more data-informed decisions. And while most teams have a set of core metrics, only 63% can say what they are right now.

If you and your team have faced similar pains, you’re not alone. Watch the webinar to explore the benchmarks in the report and hear real-world experiences and best practices from data-driven teams.

In this webinar, you’ll learn:
- How teams are adapting their tech stacks to deal with current economic conditions
- Strategies for sharing data to break down silos
- What works and what doesn’t when it comes to setting and reviewing metrics
- Best practices from data-driven teams across Financial Services, Healthcare, eCommerce, and SaaS

Decoding Data: Best practices from data-driven teams

Customer journeys are complex. As your business scales it becomes harder to quickly respond to your customers’ needs. And more customers engaging across devices, products, and channels can lead to fragmented data, making it difficult to connect the dots and uncover key areas of opportunity.

One solution for countering complexity and unlocking agility at scale? Comprehensive, actionable data.

With the right use of behavioral data, large organizations can reduce complexity and increase visibility into the full customer journey. Comprehensive data insights help you quickly understand and resolve points of friction, optimize conversions, and deliver digital experiences that attract and retain users.

In this webinar, hear how the product team at S&P Global Market Intelligence leverages data insights at scale, enabling their enterprise team to move at start-up speed.
