How can data inform vehicle purchasing patterns?

On this episode of the Built on Strategy Podcast, we are joined by Curtis Burkhalter, who is the Product Manager of Data Science Insights at Alteryx and former Data Insight Product Manager with Mercedes Benz. We discuss the shift in the auto industry into cleaner technology and the obstacles that come with reorganizing priorities. The transition to electric vehicles for car manufacturers requires new strategies for production, marketing, support, and most importantly data. Interests, hobbies, and lifestyle are key factors to determining potential car owners, and the analytics that lead manufacturers to new clientele is evolving with changing worldviews and societal awareness. The key to appealing to new audiences is empathy, and understanding the types of issues that resonate with people is crucial to providing them with products they will adopt.
