One evening, while nursing a pint and daydreaming about paperclip-shaped glory, Timothy hears something intriguing from a huddled group nearby. They’re chatting away about ’big Data’, talking it up like it’s the newest Marvel superhero. Curiosity piqued, he asks his own trustworthy sidekick (his phone, not a talking paperclip, unfortunately) what this Big data lark is all about. To his surprise, he learns that Big Data can completely turn around his email strategy, change the fortunes of his humble newsletter, and make his subscriber numbers skyrocket.Fast forward several months, and our dear Timothy is now not just the fun paperclip guy, but a marketing maestro, all thanks to Big Data.

He’s mixing up the content based on subscribers’ interests and behaviours, sending his clips at the optimal times, and his ‘Clip of the Week’ has skyrocketed in popularity – all hail Big Data.
