The dashboard made data like daily sales, driver wait time easy to discover. Red and green tags informed the merchant if the change was positive or negative.
With insights on the store’s lean period and frequently ordered items, merchants began to offer discounts and create item combos. This led to a 65% increase in daily orders.
We created a framework that sent personalized notifications to merchants to use relevant features on the dashboard. Merchants could use the dashboard, without the team’s help.
Armed with these insights, Grab’s merchants improved their store’s performance by offering discounts on low-demand items and decreasing driver wait times. Merchant incomes increased and so did Grab’s revenue.
Reports were generated 24 times faster — in 4 hours, instead of 4 days. The merchant could choose custom metrics to measure the reach and cost of their campaign.
We built a powerful tool so advertisers could
