What a Data Analyst Does for Your Business
Six analytics responsibilities that turn raw data into profitable decisions.
Marketing Dashboard Development
Builds real-time dashboards in Looker Studio, Tableau, or Power BI that consolidate data from all marketing channels into a single executive view.
GA4 & Tracking Audit
Audits your GA4 configuration, GTM setup, and conversion tracking to ensure your analytics data is accurate and your decisions are based on real user behavior.
Attribution Modeling
Builds multi-touch attribution models that correctly assign credit across touchpoints — replacing last-click defaults that dramatically overvalue bottom-funnel channels.
Channel ROI Analysis
Calculates true ROI for every marketing channel — accounting for CAC, LTV, blended ROAS, and time-to-conversion — so budget is allocated to what actually drives profit.
Cohort & Retention Analysis
Analyzes customer cohorts by acquisition source, product, and geography to identify which segments have the highest LTV and where to focus acquisition investment.
A/B Test Analysis
Designs statistically valid experiments, calculates sample sizes and required test durations, and analyzes results to ensure test conclusions are statistically significant — not noise.
Why Marketing Fails Without Good Data Analysis
Six ways data blindness costs businesses revenue.
Last-click attribution kills budget decisions
Defaulting to last-click attribution systematically underfunds top-of-funnel channels and overfunds retargeting — a common source of growth plateaus.
Tracking gaps make decisions unreliable
GA4 misconfigurations, broken UTM parameters, and unverified conversion events mean decisions are based on incomplete or inaccurate data.
No single source of truth
Different platforms report different numbers. Without a unified analytics system, marketing meetings devolve into debates about whose data is right.
A/B test results misinterpreted
Running underpowered tests, calling wins too early, and ignoring statistical significance leads to shipping changes that actually hurt conversion.
LTV ignored in acquisition decisions
Optimizing for CPA without LTV data leads to acquiring low-value customers cheaply — while the high-LTV customers who drive long-term revenue go underfunded.
Reports that describe but do not prescribe
A data analyst who shows you what happened is useful. One who identifies why it happened and what to do next is invaluable — the difference EverestX vets for.
How EverestX Vets Data Analysts
Four filters that prove analytical depth and marketing context.
SQL & Technical Skills Assessment
Candidates complete SQL queries of increasing complexity — joins, window functions, aggregations — and demonstrate Python pandas competency for data manipulation tasks.
Dashboard Portfolio Review
We evaluate dashboards candidates have built — assessing data source connectivity, KPI selection, visualization clarity, and whether the dashboard answers business questions or just displays numbers.
Marketing Attribution Knowledge Test
We assess understanding of attribution models (first-touch, last-touch, linear, data-driven), their respective biases, and when each is appropriate for different business questions.
Business Insight Presentation
Candidates analyze a real dataset and present findings with recommended actions — we evaluate whether they produce prescriptive insights or just descriptive summaries.
