Hi there! If there’s one thing I’ve learned from living and working in New Hampshire, it’s that running a business is a lot like hiking one of our White Mountain trails or hitting the slopes at Cannon Mountain—you need a plan, the right gear, and a good sense of direction to reach your goal. At Clear View Advantage, I help small businesses use data as their trail map to make smart decisions, avoid wrong turns, and keep moving toward success.


Why Data-Driven Decisions Matter for Your Business


Imagine heading out on a hike without checking the weather or studying the trail map. Sure, you might get lucky, but more often than not, you’ll end up off-track, unprepared, or calling it quits early. Running your business without data is kind of the same thing. Data gives you the insights to make informed choices so you can avoid pitfalls and keep climbing.


Here’s why it works:

  • Clear Direction: Know exactly where you’re going and why, instead of guessing.

  • Better Resource Allocation: Invest your time, energy, and budget where they’ll make the biggest impact.

  • Efficiency Boost: Focus on what works so you don’t burn out chasing dead ends.

  • Stronger Customer Relationships: Understand your clients better, so you can give them what they really need.


Real-World Impact


Let’s say you own a landscaping business and you notice your spring clean-up services are more popular than fall maintenance. By digging into the data, you realize that promoting seasonal packages could attract more repeat customers. With that insight, you launch a bundled offer and see a steady increase in bookings.


Or maybe you run a small accounting firm and find that clients are often asking for budgeting advice alongside tax prep. You start promoting financial planning services, filling a gap you didn’t even realize was there, and watch your revenue grow.


No matter what type of business you’re in, data helps you see patterns, uncover opportunities, and make decisions that push you forward.


How to Start Leveraging Data


  1. Gather Info: Track sales, customer feedback, and website traffic like you’d check trail markers.

  2. Look for Trends: Notice patterns, like which services are in demand or when inquiries peak.

  3. Make Adjustments: Use what you learn to improve marketing, operations, or offerings.

  4. Keep Checking In: Just like a hike, keep reviewing your progress to stay on track.


Let’s Make the Journey Easier
