What is the main goal for this project?

The main goal for the project is to develop a marketing analytics system that pulls data from social media data sources like LinkedIn, X, HubSpot, etc. The system should be automated and end with a PDF/image report in a slack channel on a weekly basis. The system will run some data analysis in a python script on serverless infrastructure like Google Cloud Functions on an hourly trigger. Project team members will have support of team members with python/GCP/data-analysis expertise and will work closely with the head of marketing to select a few metrics for weekly reporting.
