Build dashboards and reports without the data engineering ramp

Your data lives in six places: Stripe, Google Analytics, your CRM, a product database, a spreadsheet someone built last year, and the founder's head. Every time someone asks "what were our numbers last month?" it takes half a day to pull together a manual report that's already out of date by the time it's done.

You need reporting. You don't need a data engineering project.

The painful path

You've tried building reports yourself. Spreadsheets linked to exports, pivot tables updated manually every Monday. It works until it doesn't, usually around the time a board member asks a question the spreadsheet can't answer.

You've looked at BI tools (Looker, Tableau, Metabase), but they need someone to set them up, connect the data sources, build the queries, and maintain them. That "someone" is a data engineer or analyst, and locally they cost $6,000 to $9,000 a month. For a startup that just needs reliable monthly dashboards, that's a hard budget line to justify.

So decisions keep getting made on gut feel, bank balance checks, and whatever number someone remembers from last week. The data exists. It's just not accessible.

What changes with SoTalented

You get a dedicated data analyst working only for your company, from a premium SoTalented Satellite Office in India. They connect your data sources, build the dashboards, and maintain the reports. Not a one-time project. An ongoing function.

A dedicated data analyst starts around $2,200 a month, all in. They work in whatever tools make sense for your stack: Looker, Tableau, Metabase, Google Sheets, or even just well-structured SQL. They start by understanding what decisions you're trying to make, then build the reporting to support them.

First hire takes about 3 weeks. 30-day cancellation if it's not working.

What your team looks like now

Your data analyst handles:

• Connecting data from Stripe, GA, CRM, and product databases

• Building dashboards for revenue, retention, pipeline, and operational metrics

• Automated weekly and monthly reports delivered to your inbox

• Ad-hoc analysis when a board member or investor asks a question

• Data quality checks and cleanup across sources

• Documentation so the reporting doesn't live in one person's head

You stop guessing. Board questions get answered with real numbers. Monthly reviews are based on dashboards, not "let me pull that spreadsheet." The data you already have starts driving decisions instead of collecting dust.
