The concept of hidden gems in Mexico refers to those places that are not as popular as other tourist destinations but offer unique experiences that are worth exploring. These hidden gems are often off-the-beaten-path and offer authentic cultural experiences, safe outdoor adventures, and undiscovered colonial cities. One of the best ways to discover hidden gems in Mexico is by talking to the locals. They know their country better than anyone else and can recommend places that are not on the typical tourist map. Expats in Mexico can also be a great source of information as they have already gone through the process of exploring different parts of the country. Off-the-Beaten-Path Hidden Gems in Mexico are those places that are not typically found in guidebooks or travel websites.

Vast holdings and assessment of consumer data by large companies are not new phenomena. Firms' ability to leverage the data to reach customers in targeted campaigns and gain market share is, and on an unprecedented scale. Major companies have moved from serving as data or inventory storehouses, suppliers, and exchange mechanisms to monetizing their data and expanding the products they offer. Such changes have implications for both firms and consumers in the coming years. In From Big Data to Big Profits, Russell Walker investigates the use of internal Big Data to stimulate innovations for operational effectiveness, and the ways in which external Big Data is developed for gauging, or even prompting, customer buying decisions. Walker examines the nature of Big Data, the novel measures they create for market activity, and the payoffs they can offer from the connectedness of the business and social world. With case studies from Apple, Netflix, Google, and Amazon, Walker both explores the market transformations that are changing perceptions of Big Data, and provides a framework for assessing and evaluating Big Data. Although the world appears to be moving toward a marketplace where consumers will be able to "pull" offers from firms, rather than simply receiving offers, Walker observes that such changes will require careful consideration of legal and unspoken business practices as they affect consumer privacy. Rigorous and meticulous, From Big Data to Big Profits is a valuable resource for graduate students and professionals with an interest in Big Data, digital platforms, and analytics.
