Over the last decade, marketing practice has gone through a radical transformation. At the heart of it is the availability of data. There is a common belief among marketing practitioners that analytics will pave the way for marketing decision making. Despite recognising the potential of analytics, there is a considerable skill gap that exists among practicing managers and recent developments in the field. While there are multiple programmes in analytics which have surfaced, most of them do not delve deeper how managers themselves can engage in data driven decision making.

The objective of our programme is to provide hands on experience in customer and marketing analytics. The programme takes a step by step approach to develop a holistic approach to elucidate the core concepts used in this emerging domain, and train managers to apply some of the advanced modelling techniques appropriate for the decision context. We start with a basic module on marketing analytics and move towards developing more advanced models of customer profitability. Thus, this course will provide managers the skill sets necessary for making a difference in the real world.

The course will train managers to build a strong proficiency in data analytics. The design of the programme is to enable managers to be able to use marketing/consumer data more proficiently, create customized models, and make more relevant data driven decisions for contexts specific to their organizations/businesses.

Day 3: Advance methods for Customer Profitability

While most organizations have built capabilities to access customer profitability, in most cases, the models used only focus on direct measures of profitability. In the third module, we incorporate both direct and indirect measures of customer profitability. We look at customer lifetime value, customer influence value and customer referral value. Customer influence value helps organizations to identify key opinion leaders of a product or a service in social media platforms whereas customer referral value helps a firm to understand profitability of a customer acquired through referrals. Finally, we look at how to communicate customer analytics in an organization.
 

The course is designed for managers and organizations willing to explore and exploit data analytics for effective decision making. Generally, the entry level, mid-level managers and entrepreneurs are suitable for this programme. 

As a part of the programme, you will do a small project, where you will apply the learnings from the course. This will help in solidifying the learnings.
