Thinklytics helps retail and e-commerce analytics leads unify sales, inventory, and customer data with trusted reporting and data governance consulting.
Unify sales, inventory, and customer data for retail and e-commerce analytics teams.
Sales, inventory, and customer data in three systems. Zero agreement.
Thinklytics cleans up the BI environment that grew faster than it was designed, unifying your retail and e-commerce data into a single reporting layer your merchandising, operations, and marketing teams can all work from.
We team up with Analytics Directors and BI leads at retail and DTC brands.
If you’re running an online store on Shopify, Magento, or even a custom setup, we’re here to help.
We work with merchandising and planning teams to make inventory reports they can actually rely on. No more guessing or doubting the numbers. We dive deep into the data so you see exactly what’s in stock, clear and simple.
We team up with CMOs who want to see exactly how their ad dollars turn into real sales. No fluff, just clear proof of what’s actually making a difference.
We took a messy pile of retail data and cleaned it up. Then we built dashboards that actually make sense. The goal? Simple, reliable numbers you can trust, no more digging through confusing spreadsheets. Just one clear place to get the facts.
Here’s how long it usually takes us to get a solid retail reporting system up and running.
We’re all about making sure your customers stick around. Every retail project we jump into, that’s our focus.
Shopify and your ERP often tell different stories. We roll up our sleeves, dig into the data, and figure out why the numbers don’t match. Then, we help you see the real picture.
Your Shopify dashboard throws out one revenue number. Your ERP spits out a different one. Returns, exchanges, wholesale orders, they all get recorded in their own weird ways across systems. So, your analyst wastes half a day each week just trying to piece it all together.
Inventory reports that never seem to match up? We’ve been there. Our team digs into the data and finds where the numbers go sideways. No more guessing games, just clear, reliable inventory insights you can actually trust.
We grab data from the WMS just once a day. So by the time merch looks at the dashboard, the info is already a day old. That delay means reorder alerts come too late, and stockouts slip through.
Your customer data’s scattered everywhere, different platforms, different formats. We help you bring it all together so you can actually understand what’s going on.
Alright, here’s what’s going on. Your customer data’s all over the map, Klaviyo, Shopify, your loyalty program, and that CDP you tried setting up a couple years back but never really nailed. So when you want something simple, like customer lifetime value or repeat purchase rate, you have to jump through hoops and build a custom data pull every single time. It’s a mess, and it kills your speed.
Marketing attribution that changes every month, because your data should keep moving.
Yep, we’ve all been there. Marketing swears by last-click. Finance is all about first-touch. The agency? They push for some blended mix. So every month, instead of digging into the data and figuring out what to do next, you get stuck arguing over which number actually means something. It’s a total time-suck.
A 6-week engagement that consolidates your retail and e-commerce data sources, resolves the metric definition conflicts, and delivers a unified reporting layer your entire commercial team works from.
We grab your Shopify, ERP, and wholesale data and mash it all into one clear sales and revenue dashboard. No more toggling between apps, everything’s right there, simple to find and use.
We set up inventory reports that link straight to your warehouse system. It’s almost real-time, so you see stock levels right when they change, no more waiting around.
We pull all your e-commerce, loyalty, and marketing data into one spot. No more toggling between apps. Just one simple view that shows exactly what your customers are doing.
We built a marketing attribution model and baked it into every report. No more guesswork, now everyone sees the same story.
We put together a metric dictionary that covers all the main commercial KPIs. Every term has a clear, agreed-upon definition so there’s no confusion and everyone’s talking the same language.
We use Shopify Plus. Does that mean we set up the integration differently?
With Shopify Plus, we get API access that the regular Shopify doesn’t offer. That makes hooking things up way smoother. We’ve connected Shopify Plus with NetSuite, SAP, and even custom ERPs without a hitch.
Okay, so you’ve got a CDP set up. But here’s the thing, do you really have what you need? A CDP just gathers and organizes your customer info. What we do is dig deeper. We sift through that data, spot the trends, and turn it into insights you can actually use to boost your ecommerce game. Think of us like the secret sauce that makes your data work smarter, not just harder.
A CDP stores all your customer data, but it doesn’t handle the reporting side of things. The real headaches pop up around how metrics get defined and how the CDP connects with your e-commerce platform and finance systems. Usually, the CDP itself isn’t the issue.
How long does this take? We usually get the job done in about two weeks. Sometimes less, depending on the data and what you need. We keep it quick so you can start making decisions faster.
Here’s how we handle Retail BI reports. We kick off with two weeks digging through the data to spot all the mess. Next, three weeks fixing what’s broken and making it solid. The last week? We run a thorough check and walk the team through the updates. Simple and steady.
Here’s what we do: first, we get you a live dashboard in Tableau or Power BI. Then, we create a simple data model and a simple metric dictionary so everyone understands what’s what. We also train someone on your team to take full ownership. And we don’t stop there, we set up data quality checks that catch problems before anyone on your team notices.
Cleaning up BI reports might sound dull, but it’s a meaningful shift. We jump in, cut out all the clutter, fix the broken links, and make sure each report actually makes sense. The point is to help teams get what the data’s saying without any confusion. It’s simple, useful, and way less annoying.
Here’s the deal: we jump into your BI reports, cut through the noise, and fix the data chaos. We make your dashboards simple and reliable again. No gimmicks, just simple reports you can actually count on.
Retail and E-Commerce Analytics We dive deep into the numbers behind retail and e-commerce. Our goal? To help you spot trends, understand customer behavior, and boost sales. Think of us as your data sidekick, breaking down complex info into clear insights you can actually use. Whether it’s tracking online traffic, analyzing purchase patterns, or optimizing inventory, we’ve got you covered. No jargon, just real talk and real results.
We work side by side with retail and e-commerce teams to crack their data puzzles.
Data Foundation Sprint is where we get hands-on with your data. We sort through the mess, fix what’s broken, and set it up so it actually works for you. No fancy extras, just the solid basics that make everything else easier down the line. It’s like laying the foundation before you build the house.
We dive in for six weeks and hook up natural language search plus predictive insights straight into your Tableau or Power BI. That means your merchandising, marketing, and ops teams can start answering their own questions, no more waiting around on data teams.
