FAQ

BigQuery vs Snowflake for marketing data?
BigQuery for Google-centric stacks and pay-per-query cost model (great for sporadic usage). Snowflake for heavy analytics workloads and better multi-cloud support. Both work great for marketing. We recommend based on your cloud platform and usage patterns.
What is dbt and why do we need it?
dbt (data build tool) transforms raw data in your warehouse into clean, tested, documented models. Instead of tangled SQL views, you get version-controlled models with tests, documentation, and lineage. It is the standard for modern data transformation.
How much does a marketing data warehouse cost?
Warehouse compute: $100-500/month for most mid-market companies. ETL tools (Fivetran): $500-2K/month depending on connectors. dbt Cloud: $100-500/month. Total: $1-3K/month. ROI from unified analytics far exceeds cost.
What is reverse ETL?
Reverse ETL pushes data FROM your warehouse TO operational tools. Example: compute a customer health score in the warehouse, push it to HubSpot CRM so reps see it. Tools: Census, Hightouch, or custom.
