About Amber Gao

In a world with constant chaos due to an overload of priorities and directions, I believe in clarity from data and informed decisions from scientific analytics… Life is constantly changing and evolving. And with so much going on, it can be hard to measure all of its changes, let alone knowing the right direction to go. Throughout the years, I have come to realize that the only thing that truly measures life is data. Data is tangible and real. It provides direction, clarity, and predictability in our lives, especially in business. Data is what drives me. It is why I am so grateful to be part of Fusion Analytics, and all the work we do for Canada’s top retail enterprises. I am humbled to work as a retail strategy consultant for Fusion, to help generate unique perspectives and drive clear actions for global retail companies. Our client list includes Canadian Tire, Walmart, IKEA, Sobeys, Home Depot, Labatt, Bouclair and many more. How is this possible? Apart from being named “the secret weapon for growing retailers” by our clients, Fusion Analytics is the only data analytics and consulting company that delivers One Version of the Truth across the enterprise - fusing together 40+ data sources and 140+ metrics from inside and outside the organization using AI and Bayesian statistics through the Fusion Method™. I understand in today’s retail world, there is constant chaos caused by an overload of directions and priorities. Fusion’s unique “top-down” approach provides a clear picture across all business elements, empowering global retail leaders to make better decisions.Imagine the clarity you could see, and the informed actions you could take - knowing you are steering your company in the right direction, no matter what obstacles and variables you face. This is why data drives me, and why the Fusion Method would be so powerful to help drive you and your business. If you’re interested in learning more about how we could be your “secret weapon” to grow your retail company further, please feel free to reach out to me at amber@fusionanalytics.com or message me on LinkedIn. I look forward to speaking with you. Amber fusionanalytics.com

    Fusion is an advanced analytics firm specializing in Measuring and Prioritizing. We empower global retail leaders to make better decisions by fusing all sources of data into a clear view across the business. For over 13 years, we have been helping our clients to better understand their business by consolidating complex insights into compelling stories, with distinct chapters and clear plotlines leading to epiphanies of “I know exactly what actions to take next” for our clients. The Fusion Method takes the bias and politics out of competing data sets. It provides the best customized analytics, advanced mathematically modeling, and speed to fuse multiple data sources from inside and outside the organization. With its ability to generate unique perspectives and drive clear actions, Fusion is the secret weapon for growing retailers, and is the only data analytics and advisory company that delivers One Version of The Truth across your enterprise. We achieve all the above by mathematically fusing over 42 internal & external data sources and over 140 enterprise metrics measured across the organization via our proprietary AI model built off of Bayesian statistics. As a wholly different statistical paradigm from traditional methods, Bayesian statistics has been explored and validated for three centuries but has only recently become practical with advances in AI. The Fusion Process:· Uncover and remove all blind spots in the business· Triangulate multiple data sources for each metric to remove noise and find the actual signal· Fuse/integrate all the metrics so you can see a clear picture of what is working and what is not· Rack & stack the results into clear outlines so your team can prioritize· Work with you to build an action plan, then implement and review
