Let& #39;s chat about how you can use @Tableau, the mysterious software I mentioned that requires no coding or tech knowledge but can position you to command salaries upwards of $150,000 / year, or upwards of $70 / hr.

Here& #39;s the landscape: Businesses have access to more data than ever before, from financial data to supply chain data to CRM data to social media data.
A 2019 IBM study found that 82 percent of C-Suite leaders strongly believe data helps create a strategic advantage in strengthening their level of customer trust and bottom lines.
Basically, data is f*cking important.

Here& #39;s the problem: Companies want to leverage data to make data-driven business decisions, but most non-technical employees are not comfortable accessing or using data.
Furthermore, many data scientists are engineers who don& #39;t understand (1) business and (2) how to make data digestible for non-data scientists (in my experience).
So, companies are stuck with:
(1) data people who are incapable of making business decisions
(2) business people who are incapable of making data-driven decisions
Which means that — no data-driven business decisions are being made.
(1) data people who are incapable of making business decisions
(2) business people who are incapable of making data-driven decisions
Which means that — no data-driven business decisions are being made.
And that& #39;s the opportunity for you: There is demand across industries (e.g., retail, government) and functions (e.g., finance, sales/marketing) for people who can assemble and leverage data to make business decisions.

Let me show you Tableau at work.
Imagine you work at @Airbnb. @Airbnb found that guests are searching for entire homes and apartments in the wake of coronavirus and concerns about shared spaces.

(I& #39;m using this Airbnb dataset with information about 30,000+ NYC listings: #qt-overview_resources">https://public.tableau.com/s/resources?qt-overview_resources=1 #qt-overview_resources.)
The">https://public.tableau.com/s/resourc... CEO asks you: "what& #39;s the average price of an entire apartment versus a private room in NYC?"

In the old days, you& #39;d try to analyze a spreadsheet that looks like this:
With Tableau, it& #39;s as simple as this:
Naturally, seeing the data presented so digestibly elicits more questions from the CEO. "Is this being driven by a particular borough?" He asks. In seconds, you have an answer:
"Booking a Staten Island home is pricier than Manhattan? That& #39;s interesting. What percentage of revenue from entire homes did Staten Island drive?"
(I can only add two videos in a thread, but achieving this is just as simple as dragging and dropping like in the above examples).

"Wow, that& #39;s nothing. What areas are driving revenue among entire home bookings then?"
(I can only add two videos in a thread, but achieving this is just as simple as dragging and dropping like in the above examples with Tableau& #39;s built-in map functionalities).

"Okay, this is helpful. I want to see this information daily." He concludes.
In the old days, you& #39;d pull this data manually each day. With Tableau, you can create interactive, easy-to-use dashboards in minutes by dragging and dropping (e.g., I created this in minutes):

This is the power of @Tableau, people.
I just analyzed 30,000 entries of data in seconds and created an interactive dashboard (that would ideally refresh automatically) for the CEO to analyze booking trends in NYC on the fly.
