Join us for a masterclass in building data-driven marketing cultures. Moe Kiss, Director of Data Science in Marketing at Canva, shares how she bridges analytics and storytelling to make data approachable across teams. She breaks down the shift from attribution to experimentation, why storytelling is a must-have skill for every data professional, and how to balance intuition with evidence. Discover how Moe's redefining the balance between technology, trust, and empathy in data leadership.Key Moments:Data as “Part of the Meal” (09:09): Using a cooking analogy, Moe describes how data should be integrated into decision-making, not as a garnish or afterthought, but as part of the meal itself. She highlights Canva's culture of balancing intuition with data, ensuring both creative instinct and analytics inform every decision.Storytelling as a Data Superpower (10:57): Moe breaks down her “insight headline” method, turning flat dashboards into stories that drive action. She argues that data storytelling isn't about aesthetics but understanding, and that trust comes from how clearly insights connect to business impact.Technical Fluency in the Age of AI (18:16): While some leaders claim programming is obsolete, Moe insists it's more important than ever. Understanding what's under the hood helps data professionals vet AI outputs, maintain data quality, and confidently guide stakeholders through rapid technological change.Buy vs. Build: The Cost–Benefit Equation (20:11): Moe breaks down how Canva evaluates when to build internal tools versus buy off-the-shelf solutions. She stresses that the best answer depends on scalability, cost, and time to market — and that implementation costs are often underestimated.AI's New Role in Marketing (24:48): Moe shares how AI is reshaping marketing teams and their relationship with data. She highlights how generative AI tools can democratize access to insights, but warns that without trusted, high-quality data foundations, AI can just as easily amplify mistakes.Key Quotes:"Data is about creativity…It's not about it being pretty, it's about being understood.” - Moe Kiss“ We are leveraging AI tools more, and so understanding what's under the hood, I would say, is more essential than ever.” - Moe Kiss“[Know] the business appetite.

For retailers, being data-driven in the 21st century is not a luxury but a matter of survival. Everything is measurable: from engagement to purchase patterns, and that creates the need for leaders who are capable of being both creative and analytical when it comes to integrating data into their decision-making process. To explore this challenge, I spoke with Kshira Saagar, Head of Analytics and Data Sciences at The Iconic, one of Australia’s leading online retailers. Previously at Datalicious and Fairfax, Saagar was responsible for institutionalizing data-driven analytics across the company’s core competencies and building next-generation analytical products for his organization.

He talks about what Equifax and Datalicious offer to their customers. Together with Sima, he also shares a little more about the topic he tackled for the forum. Christian Bartens - Data-Driven Marketing (DDM) Christian’s company, Datalicious, has been acquired by Equifax of which he is now the Marketing Measurement Leader. “Equifax has a lot of very interesting data assets that have been in the data game for a very long time.” - Christian Bartens They don’t have many people but they have their own dedicated marketing service that is called data-driven marketing or DDM. The people behind DDM break down into four capabilities, which they called link, reveal, engage and measure. Four Capabilities of DDM Link is all about linking data sets, getting rid of data silos and creating the mythical single customer view. The people who do this are an army of data analysts that help customers analyze their data to find juicy segments within the sets, like where their most profitable customers are. This is the reveal part. Equifax also helps find more of the same, which they call engage. They have integrations where they can create targeted email lists to help in this goal. And then, Datalicious comes in for the final part, measure. “We're filling that measurement capability to help people actually analyze [whether] what they're doing doesn't work or not and then do more of the same.” - Christian Bartens on Datalicious as part of Equifax Purchase Path by Datalicious Christian started Datalicious ten years ago in Australia and Asia. It has grown all over Asia since. Now, they’re trying to build the same capability for Equifax in the US, specializing in attribution. They build what is called the purchase path. “We assemble every single touch point people have with the brand before they buy something or do something of value.” - Christian Bartens Quick links to connect with Christian Bartens: LinkedIn Twitter Datalicious Equifax Sima loves to hear from her listeners with input, questions, suggestions and just to connect!

Have you ever seen a one-man show in the theater? It's awesome. Unless it's terrible. The same can be said for one-person digital analytics teams. It can be awesome, in that you get to, literally, do EVERY aspect of analytics. It can be terrible because, well, you've got to do EVERYTHING, and it's easy for the fun stuff to get squeezed out of the day. On this episode, we head back Down Under for a chat with Moe Kiss, product (and digital) analyst at THE ICONIC. Whether you pronounce "data" as DAY-tuh or DAH-tuh, Moe's perspective will almost certainly motivate you find new ways to push yourself and your organization forward.
