You're going to learn about and apply strategies to communicate your results and help them make a difference.

• Modeling Customer Lifetime Value with Linear Regression
• How can you decide which customers are most valuable for your business? Learn how to model the customer lifetime value using linear regression.
• Logistic Regression for Churn Prevention
• Predicting if a customer will leave your business, or churn, is important for targeting valuable customers and retaining those who are at risk. Learn how to model customer churn using logistic regression.
• Modeling Time to Reorder with Survival Analysis
• Learn how to model the time to an event using survival analysis. This could be the time until next order or until a person churns.
• Reducing Dimensionality with Principal Component Analysis
• CRM data can get very extensive. Each metric you collect could carry some interesting information about your customers. But handling a dataset with too many variables is difficult. Learn how to reduce the number of variables in your data using principal component analysis. Not only does this help to get a better understanding of your data. PCA also enables you to condense information to single indices and to solve multicollinearity problems in a regression analysis with many intercorrelated variables.
