- Collect relevant data: Gather data that will help you achieve your goals. This could be sales data, customer feedback, operational data, etc.
- Clean and prepare the data: This step involves removing errors, dealing with missing values, and transforming the data into a suitable format for analysis.
- Choose the right analytical techniques: Depending on your goals, you might use descriptive, diagnostic, predictive, or prescriptive analytics.
- Analyze the data and interpret the results: Use statistical techniques to analyze the data, and then interpret the results in the context of your business.
