Our Cube Approach
A Multi-Dimensional Model for High-Quality Market Intelligence
The ECDB Cube serves as the core framework of our data model - a coherent, multi-dimensional construct that reflects the complexity of eCommerce by interlinking key perspectives such as markets, retailers, and consumers. It provides the structural foundation for deriving consistent ECDB Revenue Equations that systematically connect key metrics across these dimensions.
The Revenue Equation
The Revenue Equation As Our Backbone
At the core of our approach lies the ECDB Revenue Equation – the logic that connects all dimensions of the ECDB Cube. Unlike many others who rely on isolated or single-source data, we use this equation to systematically link key metrics across retailers, markets, and consumers. This ensures that every figure fits into a consistent structure, validates interdependencies, and enables reliable, source-independent eCommerce market intelligence.
Our Multi-Stage Approach
A Structured Path to High-Quality Data
From raw information to refined eCommerce market intelligence data, our process is comprehensive and multi-stage. Each step is designed to ensure accuracy, consistency, and reliability, resulting in market intelligence of the highest quality. Through this structured approach, we create insights that stand out in the market.
Data Collection
Research and collection of all relevant data and information.
We draw on a wide range of independent data sources – including retailer figures, store-level research, traffic, transactions, and market statistics. At the core of our collection process are over one billion real-world eCommerce transactions every month. This breadth reduces reliance on any single input, enables cross-checking from multiple angles, and ensures a more accurate and robust data foundation.
