What an insight snapshot is

A short, shareable analysis of one question, built on the warehouse, with the answer first and the evidence underneath.

Why it works for clients

Clients rarely read dashboards. They read answers. A snapshot turns data into something a client can act on in the next meeting.

Key takeaways

  • Insights answer one question each.
  • Answer first, evidence second.
  • Clients act on answers, not dashboards.

For your marketing agency

A good snapshot sent before the client asks is the most persuasive thing an agency can do with data.
