Custom ecommerce analytics dashboard with Power BI
Ntara helps clients integrate ecommerce and sales performance data to create a custom analytics dashboard in Power BI.
The challenge:
Bridging the analytics gap
Royal Brass and Hose is a leading provider of industrial supplies and components. They faced a common challenge in the digital age—the siloed nature of their analytics data. Their website and ecommerce analytics were scattered across different platforms, making it difficult to gain a holistic view of their online performance. With a desire to make data-driven decisions, Royal Brass and Hose turned to Ntara for a solution that could unify and help them visualize their data effectively.
Our approach:
Data visualization mastery
Power BI helps ecommerce companies stay connected with their data. It not only provides a comprehensive view of business operations. It also empowers them to make data-driven decisions, adapt to market changes, and achieve sustained growth in the highly dynamic world of ecommerce.
So, we embarked on a three-phased mission to equip Royal Brass and Hose with actionable insights:
- Data integration
We began by connecting Royal Brass and Hose’s disparate data sources, including website analytics using Google Analytics 4, SEO data, sales data, and ecommerce metrics into a central repository. This process involved integrating APIs, configuring data connectors, writing custom SQL code, and ensuring data synchronization. - Power BI dashboard development
Our team designed a customized PowerBI dashboard to highlight different performance analytics, from user behavior on the site to organic and SEO insights to product conversion data by customer. The multi-page dashboard seamlessly combined various data sources into a visually appealing and intuitive interface. - Advanced data visualization
Our team created interactive, dynamic visual elements that allow Royal Brass and Hose to explore their data and segment it by key personas. We made their critical metrics more visible, such as sales trends, contact form submissions, unique logins, and revenue evolution over time. This helps them analyze campaign-specific metrics to learn which strategies are driving success.
