Marketing Analytics & A/B Testing with Excel Python PowerBI

Welcome to Marketing Analytics & A/B Testing with Excel, Python, PowerBI course. This is a comprehensive project based course where you will learn how to analyze marketing data, evaluate marketing campaign performance, segment customer data, and run effective A/B testing. This course is a perfect combination between marketing and data analysis, making it an ideal opportunity to practice your statistical skills while improving your technical knowledge in digital marketing.

In the introduction session, you will learn the basic fundamentals of marketing analytics and A/B testing, such as getting to know marketing campaign key metrics and workflow. Then in the next section, we will start analyzing marketing data using Microsoft Excel. In the first section, we are going to analyze marketing campaign performance by calculating key metrics such as conversion rates, click through rates, and engagement scores across different channels to understand which campaigns perform best.

Then, we are going to segment customer data based on purchase behavior and demographics to help tailor more effective marketing strategies for specific groups. After that, we are going to calculate return on investment by comparing planned marketing budgets with actual spending and sales revenue to evaluate the financial efficiency of each campaign. Next, we are going to conduct a basic A/B test by comparing different campaign versions, like email subject lines or landing pages, and measure results such as open and conversion rates to determine which version performs better.

Then, we are also going to analyze customer retention by tracking repeat purchases over time to understand customer loyalty. Following that, we are going to estimate Customer Lifetime Value by using metrics like purchase history, tenure, total spend to help us to assess the long term value of our customers. Afterward, in the next section, we are going to analyze web traffic data using Python by evaluating total sessions, bounce rates, and session durations to understand how users interact with a website.

Then, we are also going to calculate web conversion rates to identify how many visitors complete desired actions, such as signing up or making a purchase. Following that, we are going to segment customer data using hierarchical clustering based on behavior and transaction history to identify meaningful groups that can be targeted more effectively. We are going to run A/B testing using SciPy specifically, we will perform statistical tests to compare control and test groups, helping us make decisions based on data.

In the next section, we are going to predict customer churn using CatBoost. This machine learning model will analyze factors like tenure, balance, and usage patterns to predict if the customer is more likely to leave or stay. After that, we are going to predict Customer Lifetime Value using the Multi Layer Perceptron Regression model to forecast future customer worth based on purchase history and total spend data.

Lastly, at the end of the course, we are going to visualize marketing data using Power BI. We are going to visualize marketing campaign performance, customer demographics, and web traffic data using pie charts, bar charts and scatter plots. Before getting into the course, we need to ask this question to ourselves, why marketing analytics is very important?

Well, here is my answer, marketing analytics helps businesses turn marketing data into actionable and valuable insights that enable better decision-making, campaign optimization, and customer targeting. It also helps companies to allocate their budgets more effectively, improve ROI, and gain a competitive edge by understanding what truly drives customer engagement and conversions.
