Choose the right perspective
Match the person's role type, such as data science, business intelligence or data engineering, to the decision you face, and check whether their relevant role is current or past. Ask them for one specific decision their data supported and what happened when the data fell short.
Questions to take into the conversation
- 01Tell me about a decision you made with data that turned out wrong. What data were you missing?
- 02When did you decide your analysis was good enough to act on, even though you could have collected more?
- 03Which metrics did decision-makers actually use, and which ones did you build that nobody looked at?

What if they don't reply?
You pay nothing. Instant Expert sends follow-up reminders, and if the person hasn't booked or answered within 7 days, the request expires and any hold on your card is released. You can invite several of the 10 people on this list at once and cap your total spend, so you pay only for the ones who accept.
