Pragmatic Talk - Episode 10, Considerations for looking at your analytics
Welcome to episode 9 of Pragmatic Talk hosted by Scot and Susan - the husband and wife team behind Pragmatic Digital. Analytics and big data are the lifeblood of any business but in my experience, not everyone is paying close attention to what the data is telling them. Worse yet is when people look at the data without outside context and start applying their worldview to the numbers. In this episode we discuss things to keep in mind when looking at your analytics and why some often used metrics may be a bit of a red herring. https://www.pragmatic.digital (https://www.pragmatic.digital/) @PragmaticDigitl (https://twitter.com/PragmaticDigitl) Flash Briefing: "Alexa, Open Pragmatic Talk"

Pragmatic Talk - Episode 9, A Roadmap To Build Your First Voice Skill In 2019
Welcome to episode 9 of Pragmatic Talk hosted by Scot and Susan - the husband and wife team behind Pragmatic Digital. Last year Amazon shipped over 100MM Alexa devices and Google sold millions of Google Homes. Year over year growth in Voice technology is accelerating at an incredible rate. So it's not really a matter of if Smart Speakers and Voice devices, it's a matter of when. At the same time, few companies are actually investing in Voice technology and even fewer will be ready with skills (apps) that have been pressure tested in the wild. This gap represents a massive opportunity for those pioneers who are willing invest now. This is like knowing mobile was about to blow up 10 months before it happened. In this episode, we talk about what brands and individuals need to be doing in 2019 to take advantage of this once in a decade opportunity so they're best prepared for the influx of new Voice users in 2020. https://www.pragmatic.digital (https://www.pragmatic.digital/) @PragmaticDigitl (https://twitter.com/PragmaticDigitl) Flash Briefing: "Alexa, Open Pragmatic Talk"
