The Parsera jobs you can stop doing yourself
You stay in charge of what goes out. Flann does the reading, the drafting and the chasing.
Seeing where visitors came from
Today
You put an offer out last week and want to know whether it brought people to the website. The answer is in Parsera, several menus deep.
With Flann
“Where did website visitors come from this week, and how did the offer page do?”
Traffic sources and page visits are read from Parsera and explained plainly: which channels sent people, how the offer page compared with your usual pages, and whether visitors booked or bought. No talk of sessions or bounce rates unless you ask. Nothing is changed.
What you stop doing: Clicking through analytics menus to judge an offer is behind you.
Keeping an eye on competitors
Today
Checking what nearby competitors charge means visiting several websites and writing it all down. So it happens once a year, if that.
With Flann
“Use Parsera to check what the gyms near us charge for a monthly membership.”
Using Parsera, Flann gathers the published membership prices from those gyms’ websites and lays them out next to yours in one short table. It notes the date it checked, since prices change. Nothing on your side changes, and nothing is sent anywhere.
What you stop doing: Visiting competitor websites one by one with a notepad is a thing of the past.
