Highlights

In the hotly contested "price war" in the catering industry, how toGet a precise picture of competitor price dynamics,Real-time optimization of pricing strategyThe company has become a key player in the growth of the business.

The strategic pricing department of a well-known restaurant chain had been relying on traditional manual methods to collect competitor data, resulting in inefficiency and delayed decision-making. It was not until the introduction of Domo Business Intelligence Platform Afterwards, they are able to get the money through the AI-Driven Data Automation and Intelligent AnalyticsIn addition, the company has realized a leapfrog transformation from "human tactics" to "intelligent decision-making".

First, the pain of the traditional model: time-consuming, inefficient, error-prone

The core functions of the department areMonitoring mainstream takeout and group-buying platforms such as Meituan and JitterbugIt establishes a three-dimensional pricing model of "time-scene-promotion", which provides the basis for new product pricing, package combinations and discount strategies.

However, the primitive approach of "manual inspection + Excel registration" in the past has revealed a number of problems:

  • Difficulty in data collection: Staff need to browse the promotions of competitor stores one by one, manually take screenshots and record the package name, price, combination, discount and expiration date into Excel, which is extremely time-consuming to collect data in a single day;

  • Inefficient analysisExcel often lags when processing tens of thousands of data items and relies on static formulas, requiring new data to be added to rebuild logic and insights based on experience and intuition;

  • Poor CollaborationCatering pricing strategy involves multi-departmental coordination, and traditional reports can only be distributed in the form of screenshots, with information lagging behind and no interaction, resulting in inefficient departmental communication.

The head of the department confessed, "We are like 'data movers', 80% of our time is spent on repetitive labor, and very little time is really spent on analysis."

Domo breaks the game: AI + automation, freeing hands and improving efficiency.

ETL Automation Pipeline: "Build it once, use it for a long time

Domo's automated ETL (Extract-Transform-Load) feature puts an end to Excel's "formula hell". Teams only need to set up the data cleansing and integration process at the beginning, and then every time new data is uploaded, the system will automatically perform the processing and update the report in real time, without having to manually modify formulas or rebuild reports.

  • Dynamic AnalysisThrough interactive dashboards, teams can filter product (e.g., burgers, beverages) prices by ingredient, time of day, discounts, and other dimensions, gaining insight into the pricing logic of competing products and realizing data-driven decision-making.

Zero Barrier to Collaboration and Sharing, More Efficient Across Departments
