Retail turn around

In our analysis, we examined three core data sets: customer behavior, sales performance, and marketing efficiency. The medium-sized eCommerce business in focus was generating consistent website traffic — averaging 150,000 monthly visits — but struggled with a conversion rate of only 1.8%, well below the industry benchmark of 3–4%. Additionally, nearly 60% of visitors abandoned their carts, signaling a deeper issue in the checkout process and customer experience.

Identifying Business Challenges

Sales data revealed that while the company offered a wide range of 5,000 SKUs, 80% of revenue came from just 15% of products. This imbalance suggested inefficiencies in inventory management and product prioritization. Marketing spend further highlighted the gap: nearly $50,000 per month was allocated to paid ads, but the ROI stood at just 1.4x, compared to the expected 3x ROI for similar businesses. This indicated that marketing campaigns were not reaching the right audiences or lacked personalization.

Data-Driven Transformation

By integrating behavioral data with marketing analytics, the company identified that 45% of its core customers were repeat buyers of premium products, yet campaigns continued targeting broad, price-sensitive audiences. Leveraging this insight, the team shifted strategy to focus on loyalty programs, retargeting, and personalized recommendations. Within three months, the conversion rate improved from 1.8% to 3.2%, while cart abandonment dropped by 22% after simplifying checkout steps and offering multiple payment options.

Business Impact

The results were clear: revenue grew by 28% in just one quarter, largely driven by higher customer retention and better marketing efficiency. Inventory turnover improved as the business reduced underperforming SKUs by 35%, freeing up capital to invest in top-selling items. With data at the core of decision-making, the company moved from reactive sales tactics to a predictive, customer-centric model that positioned it for long-term growth.
