Dear Modern Analyst Members:

Lavastorm is conducting its 2013 Survey to research analytic trends and best practices that are affecting how companies are conducting business. We have had a great response to it so far, but would love to get the input directly from this analytics group.

As a token of our appreciation, everyone who completes the survey and provides their contact details will be entered into our drawing for a chance to win an iPad Mini and receive a copy of the full report.

A quick synopsis of the survey so far:

* The biggest struggle these folks are having is being able to manipulate and integrate the data, getting access to the data sources to conduct their analytics and gleaning insights from the data.

* Over 60% of these respondents will be increasing their investment in analytics in 2013.

* The areas they will be investing in are: Tools, People and Training.
