In our latest episode of The Stacked Data podcast, I’m joined by Veronica Saha, Head of Analytics at Zoopla (part of Houseful), as she shares real-world examples and strategies on data monetization.
In 2024, data teams need to evolve beyond being mere support functions; they must become strategic drivers. Many data teams have struggled to show/prove their true value. The monetisation of data comes in many different forms, however, it's clear that raw data is not valuable on its own.
Data only hold value as insight driving decisions. It needs to be packed into a PRODUCT!
We discuss the need to treat data as a product in order to effectively implement a monetisation strategy.
