BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m an executive at a painting company called Five Star Painting.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Data Crunch Corporation?

We wanted to automate and get more visibility of our analytics to price better and win more jobs.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Data Crunch Corporation has been helping us with data analysis software development. The system drives analytics like sales-closing ratios, monthly revenues, and other aspects of our business to put it into a database so we can be aware of how much our marketing channels are producing. This platform is kind of the Rosetta Stone of marketing because it allows us to know our real ROI and manage our investments wisely.

What is the team composition?

We’ve been working with Curtis (Owner), a project manager, and a data structure director.

How did you come to work with Data Crunch Corporation?

They’ve been working with us on previous projects with our company, and it was natural to get them involved in this task as well.

How much have you invested in them?

We’ve spent around $30,000 with them so far.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in April 2019, and the engagement is ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

The system supports our estimating, our marketing, and our financial processes. The platform also automates our operations, like scraping our Google Calendar and putting that information into QuickBooks and our system. Also, thanks to the software, we now know the cost per paint crew, and we’ve got accurate job costs for each job.

Overall, we’re number one in our franchise. We’ve experienced a 58% growth in revenue, and the sales-closing ratio is around 46% — I attribute this to the good insight into what we’re doing, thanks to the platform they developed.

How did Data Crunch Corporation perform from a project management standpoint?

Project management is good; they keep me informed and help prioritize tasks to get things done.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Their use of technology is outstanding; they apply AI where it makes sense, use predictive analytics and prescriptive text, and are working right now in natural language processing to respond to reviews in a human-like way. Overall, working on these improvements makes a big difference in our market.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I don’t think there’s anything they can improve on — it’s complicated work, and they’re getting it done and making a difference, so I’m pleased with them.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Be clear with what you want and let them advise you what can be helpful for your business.
