The Ragic jobs you can stop doing yourself
You stay in charge of what goes out. Flann does the reading, the drafting and the chasing.
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 Ragic to check what the gyms near us charge for a monthly membership.”
Using Ragic, 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.
Finding what earns and what does not
Today
Instinct tells you which products or services carry the business, but checking means exporting from Ragic and sorting a spreadsheet.
With Flann
“Rank our services by revenue for the quarter from Ragic. What’s slipping?”
Every product or service in Ragic is ranked by revenue and by volume, and Flann points out the ones slipping compared with last quarter. You get the top and the bottom of the list, not the whole thing.
What you stop doing: Exporting and sorting spreadsheets to test a hunch is over.
