    Knowing your business in real time

    Online

    This session is about businesses that want to use data to make decisions. As a group we will discuss the difficulties of accessing, linking, and reporting from multiple sources of data.

The best part is that Excel is on most computers, and experienced staff can quickly learn to use both products. Digital Nova Scotia has been helping the Tourism industry in Nova Scotia with digital marketing tools.
