RESEARCH INSIGHTS

Why SMBs Struggle

Even with billions invested globally in collaboration technologies, most SMBs remain locked out of effective solutions.

Through 12 interviews and a competitive analysis, I uncovered three recurring pain points:

Enterprise-first bias

Tools like LiveRamp and Snowflake are optimized for large corporations, leaving SMBs overwhelmed

High technical barriers

Most platforms require SQL knowledge, complex integrations, or dedicated data teams

Lack of Trust

Marketers hesitate to share data as they can't see how algorithms operate or whether bias is introduced
