Overview
Territory Design and Advanced Database Mapping
BusinessMAP lends itself to a variety of business applications.
Use BusinessMAP for territory design, demographic analysis,
customer prospecting, route planning, and more.
Why Use BusinessMAP?
Whether you work in business, education, government, or for a nonprofit
agency, a significant portion of the information you use every day is
geographic in nature.
Most people intuitively process and analyze graphical information presented
in a map with a speed and thoroughness that far exceeds an evaluation
of the same data displayed in the linear format of a table, list, or spreadsheet.
The following are examples where visualizing data and creating maps solve
problems and generate insight:
- A salesperson views a territory map and realizes
new strategic insights into where the best customers are located and
new areas of potential growth.
- A retailer uses a map to solve perplexing yet common
problems such as how to plan the most efficient delivery routes.
- A map helps the advertiser view response rates aiding
in better ROI for future promotions.
- An educator tracks scholastic scores with street
addresses and districts.
- A police department displays data that depicts crimes
that occur across a city.

Anyone who uses information with a geographic component and wants to
solve problems, improve service, and enhance operational efficiency can

BusinessMAP is used every day to solve problems and
make better, faster decisions through the power of data visualization.
Seeing and comprehending the meaning, relationship, and implications of
complex and disparate sets of information results in better strategic
planning and improved decision making based on facts, not estimates or
guesswork. Here are just a few of the many ways industries are using BusinessMAP:
