Sales leader draws from success at The Nielsen Company to help DATA better serve clients' marketing needs
BRAMPTON,ON, June 19, 2013 /CNW/ - DATA Group Inc. (TSX: DGI) ("The DATA Group", "DATA") is pleased to announce the appointment of Joshua Levi to the position of Director, Data Analytics.
Joshua brings to the role strategic leadership in client services and sales, with extensive experience using advanced research and analytics — profiling, segmentation, geo-targeting — to help clients drive strong sales and profitable business growth in their marketing programs.
He comes to DATA from The Nielsen Company, where he developed new marketing strategies and utilized innovative web-based tools and shopper analytics to increase uptake of Nielsen's products and services.
He will play an important role in supporting DATA's ongoing technology-focused growth through expansion of its marketing and document management solutions. These include a robust Cross-Channel Marketing platform for designing and deploying complete campaigns; a Marketing Campaign Management solution that improves marketing collaboration among clients and suppliers; and a Document Process Management offering that increases efficiency and lowers costs throughout the document lifecycle.
Joshua is passionate about achieving excellence both personally and professionally, and attributes his success to recognizing the need to exceed clients' expectations. "Clients are looking to us to provide the insight that will lower their costs and give them a competitive edge," he says. "We're not simply supplying products and services; we're partnering with them as an end-to-end solution provider."
He is a firm believer in the power of data analytics and its ability to help clients increase marketing ROI. His belief is rooted in part in the Pareto Principle, according to which roughly 80% of revenue comes from 20% of your customers or donors.
"Effective analytics enable you to locate those customers" he says, "and engage with them in a meaningful way, using the medium most relevant to them."
