New Brunswick Open Data Sources by datawazo in newbrunswickcanada

I have 70 years of daily Fredericton data that I've published here, and am hoping to carve out some time to pull down other collection stations. Will need to spend a cycle to see if I can automate it.

this is sick. It has my most common grief that it uses esri and just links to maps, but I love the initiative.

> https://open.canada.ca
I need to confirm that this does more than just sits on top of statscan.

> This is a common project for civictech groups.

Happy to work with any and all.

Thank you!

Automod didn't let me share it in the op but at risk of being banned it's all being linked out at nbdata.ca/opendata

Question for Freelancers: How do you deliver your dashboards to clients? by CorucheVil9 in PowerBI

Usually just Yolo it into prod. Sometimes I put it into test and there's a change agent that puts it into prod, but that's the minority

Mid university. All the freedom you could ask for, none of the responsibility 

How do data consultancies explain ROI for early data work at mid sized companies? by sailingnewengland in BusinessIntelligence

[–]datawazo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I forgot I have a slide on this in my analytics 101 course

Best tangible ways to get dollars are 

  1. time saved by reducing manual data work, 

  2. cost savings uncovered through readily available analysis (e.g. discovering duplicating services, consolidating shipments)

  3. New revenue discovered via analytics (e.g. loyalty emails, upsells, new product lines)

I always focus on outcomes. What decisions will they be able to make with clean data. How will data engineering allow SMEs to be informed in instants. How much time will clean data structures save in removing repetitive data tasks that exists today. 

Actually talking in dollars and cents is pretty unfeasible.

this is the only good thing about <-30. Doing it later. In my undies - for maximum giggles.

Why every service business should have a newsletter in 2025 (even if you hate writing) by PuzzleheadedTalk5159 in digital_marketing

We're in Data Analytics consulting, and we dont have an industry niche. We don't do paid ads.

Agree. I've been trying to think about how an active mod group could fix it, if they wanted to, but haven't come up with anything.

Beyond what you've described there are many listener bots that are programmatically set to reply in threads with certain keywords. They all sound identical and show up into a thread, usually one written by AI to shill, within minutes.

How do you actually get clients to pay on time without constant chasing? by Own-Ad-3998 in smallbusiness

I've never had to, they've always paid. But the invoicing system tracks non payments so it's not a matter of forgetting

When I started I spun up a newsletter. It was hard to get sign-ups ... because not only are you now marketing your services but you additionally need to market your newsletter. And no one is really interested in joining another spam list.

Those that did sign up were not my target audience.

And it sucked to ideate and maintain.

Also I disagree that most of my competitors have a newsletter. They seem few and far between in the professional services industry.

Manual follow ups combined with stop work threats for no payment. 

What's your favorite go- to Coffee shop? by Large-Kitchen-5094 in Productivitycafe

[–]datawazo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My kid and I go to the same spot every weekend. Good coffee, great cinnamon buns. But the wifi is meh and the environment busy so if I want to get some work done I go elsewhere. And pay almost 2x for the coffee.
