Marketing Analytics Week3 Methods of Marketing Analytics Marketing Analytical Methods Descriptive Analytics Diagnostic Analytics Predictive Analytics Prescriptive Analytics Descriptive Marketing Analysis Transforming data into useful insights The process of finding useful and important information by analysing the huge data What happened in the past? By using the stored data. Data stored in data warehouses. Limited to past data. ETL process is used before Warehousing of data It provides accurate data in the reports using past data. It allows the reactive approach Sales report, revenue of a company, Traffic Growth of Telco Examples : Reports, Dashboards, dataViz, Graphs Diagnostic Marketing Analysis Takes the insights found from descriptive analytics Drills down to find the causes of those outcomes Creating connections between data and identifies patterns of behaviour Examples : Trends deviation, Root Cause, Comparative Data Analysis . Diagnostic Marketing Analysis – Real World Example – Telecom Industry Increase in Network Congestion after Rainfall Hardware malfunctioning after rainfall causes Availability issues on some sites Load increased on Neighbors and congestion increased RCA shows 3G major culprit cells, Action taken & issue resolved Average of Cell Availability Rate(%) 3G Site 10/30/2020 11:00 10/31/2020 11:00 11/1/2020 11:00 RYK01004A 0.00% 0.00% 0.00% RYK01004B 0.00% 0.00% 0.00% RUR20353A 0.00% 0.00% 0.00% RUR20353B 0.00% 0.00% 0.00% RYK72722A 0.00% 0.00% 0.00% RYK72722B 0.00% 0.00% 0.00% Predictive Marketing Analysis Transforming data into future insights Predictive analytics use models constructed from past data to forecast future outcomes based on historical data. Involves Statistics and forecast techniques Results are not 100% accurate it will not tell you exactly what will happen but it will tell you what might happen in the future. This a proactive approach Predictive Marketing Analysis Techniques Classification Regression Clustering Time Series Classification Model These models work by classifying information based on historical data Classification models are used in different industries because they can be easily retrained with new data and can provide a broad analysis for answering questions Regression Estimate Relationship between Variables Predict Value of dependent variable on the basis of independent variable(s) Simple regression involves a single independent variable. A single straight line is fit to the data Y = b0 + b1X where b0 is the intercept b1 is the slope Multiple regression involves has more than one independent variable Time series model Time series model focuses on data where time is the input parameter If organisations want to see how a particular variable changes over time, then they need a Time Series predictive analytics model it can take into account extraneous factors that could affect the variables, like seasons. Telecom Packages Pricing Based on Utilization Clustering model sorts it into different groups based on common attributes The ability to divide data into different datasets based on specific attributes is particularly useful in certain applications, like marketing For example, marketers can divide a potential customer base based on common attributes Another example, Create a pilot cluster for trial and roll out changes if trail has successful results Predictive analytics uses Segment customers Reduce customer churn Retain profitable customers Develop effective campaigns Prescriptive Analytics - What do I need to do? The prescriptive model utilises an understanding of what has happened, why it has happened and a variety of “what-might-happen” analysis to help the user determine the best course of action to take Examples : Google Ads, Facebook Ads THANK YOU
