When to hire a Fractional VP of Analytic
Bring in a VP of Analytics when data exists everywhere but nobody owns what it means or how leadership should act on it.
Every team reports a different number
Finance, sales, and product each bring their own revenue, churn, or CAC figure to the same meeting, and nobody can say which one is right.
Analysts are stuck on ad hoc requests
Your analysts spend the week pulling one-off SQL queries and rebuilding spreadsheets instead of working on forecasting, segmentation, or experiments.
Dashboards nobody opens
You pay for Looker, Tableau, or Power BI, but executives still ask for numbers over Slack because the dashboards don't answer their questions.
Data quality issues reach the board
Broken pipelines, duplicate records, and undefined metrics have surfaced in investor updates or board decks, and trust in the data is slipping.
Your analytics leader just left
A departing VP or head of data took the context with them, and a warehouse migration or planning cycle can't wait 6 months for a replacement.
Experiments run without a method
Teams ship A/B tests and pricing changes with no sample sizing, holdouts, or agreed success metric, so results can't be trusted or repeated.
The benefits of hiring a Fractional VP of Analytic
