Challenge
The client, a US based tech start up, was struggling to effectively prioritize their sales efforts amidst a vast and complex market of healthcare providers. With over 100,000 potential leads, our client lacked a structured approach to identify which leads would yield the highest return on investment. This uncertainty led to inefficient resource allocation and missed opportunities in a competitive industry.
Solution
Data Preparation
Our first step was to clean and organize the vast amount of data. We leveraged parallel processing to migrate our client’s data from multiple CSV files to specially designed SQL tables.
Through meticulous analysis, we then identified common signals between each lead. More specifically, we focused on market presence, industry connections and peer influence.
Identifying Top Market Participants
To uncover critical market participants, we leveraged Graph Theory and the powerful Python library NetworkX. This approach enabled us to visualize and analyze the key influencers and connectors within the network. These key players were characterized by their significant impact and extensive networks within the healthcare industry, making them critical targets for strategic engagement and market penetration.
