Most high-level marketers and product managers at big tech companies know how to manipulate data to gain important insights. No longer do you have to wait around the entire day for some software engineer to answer your questions - now you can find the answers directly, by yourself, using SQL!Your existing solutions are inefficientAre you tired of depending on crufty “analytics” software? Do you have to ask an engineer to help you whenever you have a question about the data?This is not ideal and won’t help you do your job efficiently.SQL, short for “structured query language”, is a language that can be used for all kinds of databases - from the tiny databases stored in your iPhone, to large big data databases that span multiple continents.Engineers have done a great job of creating these different types of complex data stores, while still allowing you to use the same language, more or less, for all of them.What does that mean for you?It means as long as you know SQL, you can take advantage of ALL of this software, and gain insights into this data, no matter what kind of database it is stored in, as long as it supports SQL.You can ask questions like:How many people are falling into each stage of the sales funnel?What is my year over year profit?Are there any differences in the demographics between the people who are buying product X and product Y?What is our most profitable month?What are the seasonal trends in our industry?I’m an engineer, so I probably haven’t even thought of all the questions you’ve already had for years!
