Stephanie Camello Gives You 10 Tips On How to Become a Successful Data Analyst

Stephanie Camello has been a marketing data analyst for over 8 years. Now she's here to give you 10 tips on how to become a successful data analyst yourself!

1) Start out by landing an internship or entry-level data analyst job either working for a large company or for an ad agency that does marketing for large companies.

2) Find an analytics mentor to guide you as you learn more about the day to day of an analyst.

3) Seek out projects that will let you stretch your legs and give you practice working with raw data.

4) Always let the data speak for itself. Never alter the data to someone's liking, simply report the facts.

5) Establish yourself as reputable. No one will trust an analyst who is inaccurate or sloppy with the numbers.

6) Learn as many analytics tools as you can. Excel and Tableau are the go-to tools that will be expected of most analysts. PowerBI, Google Analytics, any Google marketing tool are good to know as well. The more tools you master, the more diversified your resume and the better your chances of landing the perfect career job you want.

7) Establish working relationships with coworkers in other departments like ad operations, creative, strategy or any other team you think you could learn from. Learning how other departments do their job and how it impacts the data you analyze makes you diversified and makes it easier to solve issues outside of your department.

8) If at an agency, try working across multiple clients so you can get a feel for how analytics KPIs and goals are different between an auto client vs a travel client vs a consumer good client, for example.

9) Be able to take criticism from people outside your department. And be willing to explain how analytics works to those who are more creatively driven or not as numerically driven as those in analytics.

10) Be confident in what you produce but don't be afraid to ask for ideas or help from other seasoned analytics professionals.

The Evolution of Recorded Music

Let's Take a Look at the Evolution of Recorded Music! Before electricity was invented and used, all music created by composers had to be written down on paper using a quill and ink. They had to document every single note that was to be played (on instruments like piano, violin, harp, etc.) with great detail about the time signature, the speed and tone in which it needed to be played! Often times there was only one or two copies of sheet music, so it's a wonder how all those amazing composition from Mozart and Vivaldi and the like all made it to us today! Good record keeping I guess! 1877: Phonograph on wax cylinders 1890's: Gramophone on large discs 1920's: AM/FM radio frequency 1930's: Magneto phone electronic recording (magnetic tape recording) 1948: Vinyl records created 1960's: 4-track and 8-track cartridge tapes created, while vinyl was heavily purchased until the 1980's 1970's: Cassettes/Walkman created, used until the 1990's 1980's:

Stephanie Camello Compiles the Origins of U.S. State Names

Alabama - Native American Choctaw name meaning “vegetation gatherer.” Alaska - Aleut language translates “Alaska” to “the object toward which the action of the sea is directed.” Arizona - Spanish word “Arizonac” which has origins from the Native American O’odham tribe’s word meaning “small spring.” Arkansas - The French pronunciation of the Quapawa Indians word for which the Algonquin tribe referred to as “akansa.” The French pronunciation was “Arcansas.” The reason we don’t say the “S” is because on an 1881 act passed by the state to solve a dispute between two senators who disputed over the pronunciation.
