We had tried to implement Mixpanel but struggled to get any useful insights out of the tool. Our team didn’t have much analytics experience. The practico team was able to help us create a tracking plan for Mixpanel and Segment.com which helped us track our users across our web and mobile apps. It also helped our development team property implement this plan.
Ruben helped us set up the right foundation for our Mixpanel data by working with us on creating a tracking plan and guiding our development team through our Mixpanel implementation. This has made it easier for us to start digging into our data to find answers to questions like “what are the critical actions or attributes that lead our free users to upgrade to a paid tier
Ruben helped us design an analytics strategy for our company that could help us accomplish our short term goals while laying a solid foundation for the future. Internally, we understood deeply how to make our product better but we lacked expertise around analytics and how to properly implement tools like Segment.com and Mixpanel.
Ruben helped our engineering team stay focus on the thing we do very well: building a great product. They provided guidance on the best tools that would work for us over the long term and helped us understand the technical implications of tools like Segment.com. The Practico team gave me the confidence that we were implementing data in the best way possible and we weren't going to shoot ourselves in the foot in the long run.
Ruben has helped us lay the proper analytics foundation for different projects by guiding us on the best practices of implementing tools like Segment, Mixpanel and Google Analytics. This foundation ensures that we are tracking the right metrics and are able to access the data that we need to make marketing and product decisions.
Ruben helped our team get our data in order in GTM and GA. There were two tools that we had implemented internally but weren’t able to get much value out of them. Practico was able to help us understand how to accurately track data and how to get actionable insights.

Ruben helped us understand how our app (Insights) was performing and how this would affect our redesign efforts. After launching our v2, we were able to see exactly how our users were adopting our new product and the impact of our redesign instead of assuming that something worked or didn't worked. He also served as trusted advisor for our company and always responded quickly to requests or questions.
Working with Ruben from Practico has been crucial to our business. He started by helping us audit our Google Analytics setup and found critical setup issues that affected our reporting. He then worked with us to sort through our data and helped us create our core reports while avoiding the sampling issue in Google Analytics. Having him as an expert resource made it easier for our team to understand exactly what our users were doing and how we could present this information to our stakeholders.
We had an absolute abundance of data available to us through and we didn't know what to do with it and we didn't know how to turn it from a lot of data into something really useful and tangible for us to learn as a business, but also for our customers to learn. Ruben helped us create dashboards for our own business insights but also for our vendors and our users. I'm sure we'll work with you again in the future.
Ruben is quite simply a Mixpanel Guru and Analytics wiz. Extremely professional, very knowledgeable, and just amazingly helpful guy who will ensure you get your Mixpanel and Segment (or any other tool) tracking configured the right way, as trust me, it's so easy to make mistakes and put your data in a bad format.
Ruben answered not only all of my questions, but helped me identify blind spots with my current setup (unknown unknowns). He helped me create an action plan on how to best move forward with our implementation, to get the best return on our time.I'm extremely happy with the results.
Ruben always delivered at least as much as expected, but almost always more than expected. I'm not a founder here, but I've been a serial founder my whole life, and those people who do that are the ones you like to surround yourself with. So that's where the success comes from. So it's been a great help and a blessing, I'd say, to have you around.
Before we got hooked up with Ruben, we had several questions that we were trying to figure out and didn't have complete confidence in the decisions we were making. We need an expert and Ruben was a fantastic partner. We achieved all of what we outlined in the project, and we're very happy with the results.
Ruben was essential for our implementation of a fully functioning analytics program within our company. Without our own in-house data expert, we could not have set up our analytics program without Practico. They started by helping us to analyze all the metrics we were currently tracking across the company, and what data we wished we were tracking. They then helped us to drill down and determine which metrics were essential for the stage of growth we were at. Finally, they helped us to design an automated system for tracking the data from all the disparate sources that our B to C company was dealing with. I cannot recommend them more highly.
Immediately we saw this significant buy-in from the organization and just consistent usage of the reports we were building. Our clients are happy with the type of insights and answers they're getting from their data.
Before working with Ruben, we had some data in our admin panel but did not have all the KPIs we wanted and needed. No dashboards, no KPIs, a little bit of Mixpanel, and just our numbers.
Ruben helped us with the planning, strategy, and implementation of our data tools and dashboard. We selected all the tools in a modern data stack and worked on getting everything connected.
We have a much clearer picture of how our product is doing out in the market. So some of the numbers are just more of a confirmation of our feeling, but there are a lot of figures and then KPIs, which are more of a surprise that we didn't know.
Ruben helped us understand the weaknesses in how our team was making decisions using data and prepared a strategy that would allow us to solve these challenges and level up your decision-making capabilities. I would highly recommend Ruben to any company that needs an outside perspective on how to solve critical issues like hiring the right people and selecting the right technology.

The Situation
A mobile consumer company was coming off a successful million-dollar crowdfunding campaign and was getting ready to release its mobile apps on iOS and Android. However, they didn’t have any data to understand how their customers were going to use these apps.
The Intervention
Ruben met with the growth and engineering to understand their technical stack and what data they will need over the next 12 months. He put together a strategy that would lay the foundation for the fast growth this company was expecting while still being able to handle its short-term needs. Ruben also helped their engineering team through the technical implementation issues and coached them on properly maintaining their data infrastructure.
The Results
The client launched their apps publicly and transitioned from crowdfunding backers to public customers. They can easily understand what is going on with their product and how their key metrics are changing from month to month.Their engineering team saved hundreds of hours by properly setting up a foundation that makes it easy to share data between tools. This also allows its growth team to get the answers they need without relying on engineering resources.
The Situation
An established payment provider had recently launched a new product as part of its growing suite of offerings. However, they weren’t seeing the kind of product adoption they were hoping for and didn’t know what decisions were needed.

They were also able to start quickly designing campaigns to engage their users and, best of all, automate these campaigns so they could run without their input.Finally, this team proved the value of data and decision-making to the rest of the company and is a critical first step in changing the company’s overall culture.
The Situation
In early 2020, the tourism industry had come to an astonishing standstill. Planes were grounded, luggage was collecting dust, and passports were stored away for another day. Then, in the middle of the fog of uncertainty, a governmental agency reached out for help. They had a firehose of information that could help them understand the pandemic, but they needed help converting it to actionable decisions—calmly drinking from it instead of being overwhelmed.
The Intervention
Ruben helped them by starting at the end. In an ideal world, how would this information change their daily decision-making? Based on that, we worked on chiseling away the irrelevant, leaving only the most relevant metrics. We were able to narrow it down to 10 metrics from hundreds. In the dashboard itself, we built different levels of depth. People could spend one-minute reading summaries and moving on, while others could spend 15 minutes working through the data. The goal was to help people discover insights, not give them more data.The
Results
There was an instant change. The agency team went from being overwhelmed to knowing exactly where to focus their energy. Community partners felt supported. They couldn’t control the pandemic but could control their response to it. The condensed metrics allowed them to make difficult decisions without being paralyzed. Data helped them see through the fog.
