Sales Intelligence & Opportunity Discovery

Understanding sales performance. Exploring where accounts could grow.

For the past two years, I've developed and owned Enterprise Sales Analysis, from its original data model to Power BI reporting used by approximately 150 people daily. I then extended that data foundation into Purchasing Habits to investigate customer buying patterns and potential growth opportunities.

BUILT & MAINTAINED

Original data modeling, SQL queries, and Power BI development, followed by integration with shared Analysis Services models. The upstream semantic models are not all my own work.

Two questions behind opportunity discovery.

Purchasing Habits uses two complementary comparisons. First, a behavioral profile considers how accounts order—including cadence, recurring purchasing mix, catalog breadth and location patterns—to identify potentially comparable customers. A separate catalog and vendor comparison then examines overlap, adoption and purchasing gaps among relevant peers in the same market segment or vertical. These differences guide further investigation, not automatic recommendations.

01 / PEER SELECTIONWho buys in comparable ways?

Consider purchasing frequency, product mix, breadth and participating locations—not revenue alone.

02 / OPPORTUNITY REVIEWWhich differences deserve a closer look?

Check category and vendor gaps against customer needs, existing suppliers and practical constraints.

These are prompts for investigation, not forecasts of new sales. The fictional comparison does not reproduce the deployed similarity weighting.
