This document discusses the evolution of digital analytics and intelligence over the past 15 years. It notes that analytics has shifted from basic metrics like page views and website popularity to more advanced metrics that measure emotions, behaviors, and the impact of marketing across digital channels. It also emphasizes that optimal use of intelligence requires effectively integrating tools, data, and human skills or "brains". While tools and data are increasingly available, many brands still struggle to create actionable knowledge and make accurate decisions from their analytics efforts.
