Common Data Problems I Fix

Whatever your data nightmare, I've probably fixed it before. Here are the most common issues I solve:

Duplicate Records

Same customer listed 5 times? Same product with different spellings? I'll find and merge all duplicates while preserving important data.

Example: Customer database had 10,000 records, but only 6,500 unique customers

Inconsistent Formatting

Phone numbers in 10 different formats? Dates that Excel doesn't recognize? Names in ALL CAPS? I'll standardize everything.

Example: "416-555-1234", "(416) 555-1234", "4165551234" → one format

Multiple Files to Merge

Data spread across 50 Excel files? Need to combine reports from different systems? I'll consolidate into one clean master file.

Example: Monthly reports from 3 years → one comprehensive dataset

Missing or Incomplete Data

Empty fields, partial records, data in wrong columns? I'll identify gaps, fix structure, and help you complete critical missing info.

Example: 40% of records missing postal codes → recovered 90% from addresses

Data Quality Errors

Impossible values, typos, wrong categories, outdated information? I'll audit your data and fix the errors.

Example: Found 200 products with negative inventory (impossible!)

Prepare for Import/Migration

Moving to a new system? Data needs to be in a specific format? I'll transform your data to match exactly what the new system requires.

Example: Cleaned 50,000 records for Salesforce import

Data Cleanup Questions

How do you clean data?

I use a combination of Excel, Power Query, Python, and specialized data tools. First I analyze your data to understand the problems, then I write rules/scripts to fix them systematically. I don't just randomly edit cells - I apply consistent logic across the entire dataset.

How much does data cleanup cost?

It depends on the size and messiness of your data. Small projects (single file, straightforward issues) start around $200. Larger projects with complex issues typically range $500-$2,000. I provide a quote after seeing a sample of your data.

Will you mess up my original data?

Never! I always work on a copy. Your original data stays untouched until you approve the cleaned version. I also document every change so you can see exactly what was done.

How long does data cleanup take?

Simple cleanups can be done in a day or two. More complex projects typically take 1-2 weeks. I'll give you a timeline after reviewing your data.

Can you help me prevent future data mess?

Yes! After cleaning your data, I can set up templates, validation rules, and processes to keep it clean going forward. Prevention is easier than cure.
