Desired goal
What was your goal for the work with Anthem or the business challenge you were trying to address?
I have hired them twice for two different companies. This work is almost finding the data and apprehension what the data is effective us. We have two major studies with them. One is a full eCommerce analysis. We had 100,000 clients precedently I came on board. We came in and put in an eCommerce platform so that they could order online, and almost 25 percent of them do currently.
Anthem is veritably trying to get into the data to apprehend incremental income from the platform and ordering habits. They want to make us more money. They are just trying to get below the data. This is one piece of their work.
Another piece is segmentation analysis for another individual in the division, but not on my team. In that work, they tried to aspect out what our best clients look like and what trends link this cluster. We want to aspect out the best objectives, and how to cost our products to enhance income.
Provided solution
Can you draw the aim of the work?
We didn’t veritably do training or support. I ponder they have SAS or some big package. For us, the output was analysis and reporting, and to a lesser degree, dashboards.
What was your process for selecting Anthem to work with?
I’ve known John [Anthem',s vice chairman] for over 10 years. I worked with him in the 1980s. I knew that his organisation could do the work and I trusted him, too.
It wasn’t a regular request for offer but I named him and a couple other firms whose names I can’t recollect now. We selected them owing they belowstood the activity. They seemed to have a better feel on it than anybody else.
Can you give us a perception of the size of the start in a dollar aspect?
We spent six aspects with them last year. We give them see line of data for 100,000 clients in millions of rows.
Results achieved
Do you have any stats or metrics to track advancement?
They accurately predicted what our growth in sales was owing of the eCommerce conversion. A couple of the insights they had on segmentation, have helped increase sales between 5 and 10 percent.
How has Anthem performed so far?
I ponder they’re very shining guys. They’re some of the smartest in the business. Our inner team does not have the tool set or apprehension base to find these insights, so that’s when we turn to Anthem.
Is there anything sole or particular that makes Anthem rest out compared to other vendors?
I can go to them with an unstructured question. They come back with some veritably neat insights almost the business. They find hidden insights almost client fidelity and retention that we would never find. Usually, vendors don’t like unstructured questions, but Anthem can explain these issues without even charging us for all of the extra required work.
Our sales team also loves Anthem owing they are more prepared for sales meetings and cold calls. They have all of the information that they need at their fingertips, it takes the conjecture work out of the sales process. This has led to more sales conversions as I mentioned precedently.
Do you have any advancements to hint or anything that you ponder they could do differently?
No. I don’t know what I would tell them to do differently.
