Before spending any of his budget, James wants to compare the results he achieved in all of his different marketing channels last year, to see where his budget would make the most impact. James should run a Marketing Mix Model to analyze the impact of all of his marketing initiatives on sales. True or False?

Q:

For this final project, we are going to follow James at Snackwall. James launched Snackwall a year ago, and so far, it’s been a real success. Now, James is eager to expand his audience and he is preparing to give his manager an overview of the past year’s success and ask for an advertising budget to help him grow the business. James knows that going to his boss with a solid plan will help to convince him to allocate marketing budget to the expansion of Snackwall. —————————————————————————————————————— As a starting point, James identifies the segments that he should focus on for his advertising campaign. After all, James knows that it would not be a good use of his money to market to everyone. James relies on K-means clustering, using last year’s data on business size and amount spent for Snackwall clients. James worked with Alya, his analyst, and together they ran several iterations of their K-means clustering. Now they are using the chart below to determine the number of clusters James should focus on in his campaign. How many segments do you suggest James defines for his marketing campaign based on this plot?

How many segments do you suggest James defines for his marketing campaign based on this plot?

Q:

Based on the K-means clustering, James found 3 clusters that seem to define his current client base. Since James used the dollar amount spent and the business size as the starting variables for his cluster analysis, he knows that the segments are quite distinct in terms of these variables. How would you define Cluster 2?

Q:

James decides that he should focus on the third cluster for his marketing campaign. He believes this segment has more potential, because he has seen from his previous campaign that it is a little harder to convince large businesses to subscribe. After the profiling exercise, he decides to call the segment the ‘Health conscious startups’ to help other people understand and remember this segment. Next, James turns to showing his management that the advertising budget he was given last year was money well spent. So, James calculates the Return on Ad Spend for last year, and he looks at ROAS by cluster. He shows the following results based on the total ad spend last year of $250K. The total revenue generated was $750K. The total cost invested last year was $500K, so the profit for the year for Snackwall was $250K.
