Direction

Marketing Data AnalyticsConnecting acquisition, conversion, retention and profitability questions to decision-ready analysis.
Selected case studies

Four growth questions. Four different analytical decisions.

Independent portfolio work demonstrating how acquisition, conversion, retention, profitability and data reliability become marketing priorities.

Case 01 / Conversion Analytics

Independent portfolio case study

Business question

Where is the main conversion bottleneck before purchase?

D

Analytical interpretation

Only 11.14% of viewers add to cart, while 58.35% of cart users complete a purchase. The primary conversion bottleneck is therefore product view → add-to-cart, not checkout.

Decision / recommendation

A/B test product page CTAs and add-to-cart visibility

Dataset noteExternal event-level e-commerce data used for analytical demonstration. The full dataset is excluded from the repository because of its size; a sample, aggregated outputs and methodology documentation are provided. This is not a client engagement.

Case 02 / CRM & Retention Analytics

Independent portfolio case study

Customer Segmentation RFM dashboard — RFM segmentation dashboard — segment distribution & revenue
RFM segmentation dashboard — segment distribution & revenue

Business question

Which customers should CRM prioritize?

Observed signal / customer concentration

27.9% customers75.4% revenue
Analytical interpretation
Revenue is highly concentrated: VIP customers (27.9%) drive 75.4% of revenue, while Lost customers (23.62%) contribute only 2.95% — clear CRM prioritization signals.
Decision / recommendation
VIP retention: loyalty programs, exclusive offers, proactive account management

Dataset noteSynthetic but business-realistic e-commerce order data generated with Python. The dataset contains 5,000 simulated customers and 45,356 orders and does not represent a real company.

Case 03 / Growth Profitability Analytics

Independent portfolio case study

Business question

Where is margin being destroyed?

E-commerce Profit Leak Analysis dashboard — Profitability dashboard — discount & category-region view
Profitability dashboard — discount & category-region view
Analytical interpretation
Margin leak is concentrated in Electronics / EU, and high discount levels systematically reduce margin.
Decision / recommendation
Review discount policy on Electronics in EU — highest margin erosion zone

Dataset noteSynthetic e-commerce order data generated with Python. The analysis covers 12,000 simulated orders and does not represent the performance of a real company.

Case 04 / Revenue & Retention Analytics

Independent synthetic B2B analytics system

Business question

Can revenue KPIs be trusted before Customer Success teams prioritize accounts?

D

Analytical interpretation

Decision outputs are restricted until source-data exceptions and reconciliation gaps are visible and reviewed.

Decision / recommendation

Review quality exceptions before treating ARR, churn or renewal metrics as management KPIs

Dataset noteSynthetic B2B data only. No production customer data, production deployment, observed intervention result or real business impact is claimed.
