Synopsis

In a world where customer-centric organizations have the marketing edge, advanced analytics is the driving force behind customer experiences. Real-time scoring determines content and product recommendations. Customer segmentation and look-alike models identify who should receive a coupon. Testing determines the coupon value. Attribution modeling and scenario analysis inform media spend.

It Only Looks Like Magic reveals how analysts can work with data and technology to power real-time, personalized marketing. The book strikes a compelling balance between strategic context and tactical details. Part I describes the analytic underpinnings of these new customer-centric marketing capabilities, but the true value is in the how-to detail of Part II.
