Before I open Power BI or Excel for any project, I ask the business owner these 5 questions first. Sounds basic, but the answers usually tell me more than the data itself does, especially question 5, that one almost always ends up being the actual project.

You have the numbers.
But do you actually know what's happening in your business?
Sales reports. Customer data. Spreadsheets. Monthly numbers.
There may be plenty of data sitting in front of you, but still no clear answer to questions like:
→ Which products are actually performing well?
→ When are sales increasing or declining?
→ What are customers buying?
→ Where are you losing opportunities?
→ What needs your attention first?
Having data isn't the same as understanding it.
This is where data analysis can help.
Instead of looking at hundreds or thousands of rows individually, I organize and analyze the data to find the patterns that matter.
For example, in a recent coffee sales analysis project, I looked at sales performance, product trends, and customer purchasing patterns and presented the results through an interactive dashboard.
The goal wasn't to create more numbers.
It was to make the existing numbers easier to understand.
Good decisions start with knowing what's actually happening.
If your business data is sitting in spreadsheets but you're still unsure what the numbers are telling you, that's a problem worth solving.

Customer Retention & Cohort Analysis Performed an advanced cohort retention analysis using sample customer data to evaluate retention patterns across acquisition cohorts. The analysis highlights customer behavior over time and helps identify retention trends and potential churn risks through data visualization.
Cohorts are the right lens here. One useful guardrail is comparing cohorts at identical ages and separating acquisition-channel mix from within-cohort retention; otherwise a newer cohort can look weaker simply because it has had less time to mature. Nice foundation for making churn actionable.
