The challenge: overcoming time-consuming and siloed data reporting

Scholl's faced a significant challenge in harnessing the power of their data to influence retail buyer decisions. Although Scholl's had access to diverse data sources, their analysis process was slow and centralized. As a result, it could take up to two weeks to compile a single analytics report featuring metrics from POS systems, shipping platforms and syndicated data partners.

This bottleneck slowed down important decision-making and critical buyer presentations. It also hurt the company's ability to understand market changes and consumer trends when meeting with retail partners. Scholl's knew they needed a better way to handle their data. They wanted a solution that could turn complex information into clear, actionable insights that would not only improve business performance but also convince retail buyers to act decisively on new opportunities.

“Above and beyond the tools, TELUS has proven to be invaluable partners helping to support our team.”
