Mining + scraping · Duluth, GA
Mining and scraping for Duluth businesses
Duluth owners ride a calendar of concerts, art months and a big fall festival, often with a firm or two in industry nearby. We gather your sales and orders into one table, tag each row by source and add public competitor prices when your question needs them.
Mining Duluth festival and Fridays sales
The Fall Festival is held downtown on the last weekend of September, and the city lists Fridays-N-Duluth, Howl on the Green and Art Month through the year. Each may show up differently in a Hill Street shop's sales.
We combine the register export, card reader file and inbox orders with an event column. You can see which events are worth a staffed booth.
If you join Fridays-N-Duluth on more than one date, separate rows per date show whether it pays more than the festival weekend.
The festival's proceeds go toward downtown improvements and local nonprofits, so an owner who donates or sponsors can log it in the same table, to see what each cost against what it returned.
Scraping public data for Gwinnett-area competitors
A small script reads public pages of comparable sellers you name and writes down listed prices, ratings, review counts and the date.
Only public pages, within each site's terms.
A comparison set of five or six nearby sellers is usually enough. We agree on it first, and you can change it later.
Suppliers to the equipment makers and the museum trade
Duluth has a farm equipment maker and a railway museum. A firm that supplies either may keep orders, invoices and email threads in different tools.
Mining brings them into one table and shows which customers reorder.
A museum visit can lead to a lunch, a gift or a tour booking, so a supplier or café can see which weekends of the museum calendar carry the most traffic.
Small business award tiers and what a table shows
The Gwinnett Chamber runs awards by company size. Whichever tier you fall in, a table of your own numbers lets you describe growth in your own words, from your own rows.
Whatever size tier you fall in, you can show growth from your own rows: months of sales, repeat customers and new orders, each with a source. The table is yours to keep, with notes on where each column came from.
Questions from Duluth owners
Can the table show the festival's effect on my year?
Yes. With dated rows we can show the festival weekend as a share of your annual sales and compare it with other events.
I have no website. Can you still help?
Yes. Register exports, invoices and messages are enough to build a table.
What does a free call cover?
Where your records live, which questions you want answered and what we would combine first.
