For agencies and resellersACBUY
The Core Challenge: Data Silos
Operating with multiple, unlinked accounts typically leads to:
- Inconsistent Data:
- Poor Visibility:
- Inefficient Workflows:
- Delayed Decision-Making:
The ACBUY Integration Framework: A Four-Step Process
Step 1: Data Consolidation & Standardization
Extract raw data from all individual buyer account spreadsheets. Establish a unified data schema
Step 2: Centralized Data Warehouse Setup
Create a secure, cloud-based repository—your Master Data Hub. This acts as the singular destination for all consolidated data, accessible to authorized team members but protected from unauthorized edits.
Step 3: Master Dashboard Development
Using a BI tool (e.g., Tableau, Looker, Power BI) or a custom solution, build your Master Dashboard. Key features must include:
- Account-Level Toggle:
- Aggregate Overview:
- Comparative Analytics:
- Automated Reporting:
Step 4: Automation & Governance
Implement automated data pipelines (via tools like Zapier, Integromat, or custom APIs) to periodically pull data from source accounts into the Master Hub. Define clear data governance protocols
