Outcome-based reporting, not vanity metrics
Every monthly report ties our work back to leads, bookings, or revenue — not just impressions and rankings.
Business Intelligence Platforms in Lansing, Michigan
Most BI engagements we audit in the Lansing area are leaving 20-40% of their potential on the table — bad measurement, untested creative, or the wrong channel mix for the actual buyer. We start by finding what's already working, then we double down before we add anything new.
What our BI program covers in Lansing
Most Lansing mid-market companies have 6-10 SaaS systems generating data and zero unified view. We build BI stacks — warehouse + transformation layer + dashboarding tool — so your CFO, ops lead, and marketing director are all looking at the same numbers. We pick the tool to fit your team, not the team to fit the tool.
- Warehouse selection and setup (BigQuery, Snowflake, Postgres)
- ETL pipelines via Fivetran, Airbyte, or custom builds
- dbt models for repeatable, version-controlled transformations
- Dashboard builds in Looker Studio, Tableau, Power BI, or Metabase
- Executive scorecards and exec-team weekly KPI deck automation
- Self-serve analytics enablement and team training

Modern stack, no legacy debt
GA4, server-side tracking, modern CMSs, current ad APIs. We're not still running an agency on tools from 2017.
We push back when we should
If a tactic won't work for your business, we'll tell you — even when it costs us scope. Honest scope beats expensive surprises.
Senior people on every account
The strategist on your kickoff call is the strategist who runs your account. We don't do bait-and-switch staffing.

Frequently asked questions about BI in Lansing
What does ongoing BI support look like?
Monthly engagements typically cover dashboard updates, new data-source integration, and model maintenance. We also train an in-house owner so you're not dependent on us forever.
How is this different from analytics?
Analytics is mostly digital marketing data and customer behavior. BI pulls in finance, operations, sales, and customer data to answer business-wide questions. Same warehouse philosophy, broader scope.
Do we need a data engineer on staff?
Not necessarily. With Fivetran/Airbyte for extraction and dbt for transformation, most mid-market companies can run BI with a part-time analyst. We design for that reality.
Will the BI platform integrate with our current systems?
Almost certainly — Salesforce, HubSpot, NetSuite, QuickBooks, Shopify, Stripe, and most major SaaS tools have well-supported connectors. Edge-case sources we handle with custom Python jobs.
Do you work with businesses in Lansing specifically, or just remotely?
Both. We're headquartered in the Elkhart, Indiana area and serve businesses across the Midwest and Great Lakes — including Lansing and the broader Ingham County / Michigan market. For Lansing-area clients we'll come on-site for kickoff and quarterly reviews when it makes sense; day-to-day work happens over video and Slack like any modern agency.
