Big data sources are quickly becoming commonplace. What was once considered outdated is now considered a new and untapped opportunity. An important point to note from the big data revolution is that metadata can be just as lucrative as the primary data it supports. This interesting information came to us from Mobile Business Insights and their article, “Big data sources and location services: Are they worth it?”
Location services data is collected by millions of mobile devices used every day. How is this data being tapped into? Can businesses benefit from this data and use it in their business strategy? It is all about building relationships that link specific sets of data together through connections you wouldn’t otherwise be aware of.
Analyzing big data sources could open up unique marketing opportunities. These dynamic marketing channels can then open new doors for building your brand in otherwise untapped segments.
