Learn a new way of doing MMX modeling and challenge the traditional way of doing it in your organizations. Apply the same principles to all your other analytics problems.

Outline

Convergytics MarketMix Allocation Solution
The Marketing landscape is moving rapidly, impacting measurement methods and hence introducing estimation challenges
– There is device proliferation(consumer devices) and rapid technological diffusion spreading throughout society which translates into an increase in media channels and orchestration required
– “Democratization” of media has given everyone the ability to be a one-person publishing house and communicate with the entire planet
– Pressure to measure incremental effects on more channels, at lower granularity and at an accelerated pace in a noisy data set
– Nonlinear effects due to Viral and network behavior in the landscape

In this dynamic environment, it becomes imperative for the marketers to have a measurement and course correction process in order to realize maximum returns for marketing investments. Convergytics focuses on creating marketing spends allocation models that are tied closer to business reality. We bring in an ideal combination of mathematical expertise with domain knowledge to leverage learnings from data.

Requirements

A keen interest in Marketing and Spend Optimization, a basic knowledge of how MMX is done traditionally, a curiosity and a willingness to engage and ask questions
