Paid, owned, organic, promotion, and ecommerce sources.
Estimating marketing impact and budget trade-offs for fashion ecommerce.
A UK fashion retailer needs a credible way to connect marketing spend, incrementality evidence, uncertainty, and commercial planning. This lab turns that measurement problem into a working analyst dashboard and reusable Python package.
Econometrics, adstock, saturation, priors, calibration, and uncertainty.
Profit-aware scenarios, constrained optimisation, and executive summaries.
Business context
The retailer wants to understand how paid and owned marketing channels contribute to revenue, new-customer growth, and profit. Channel correlation is the easy part. What the team needs is a defensible workflow for estimating incremental contribution while accounting for seasonality, promotions, carryover, diminishing returns, and experiment evidence.
Measurement question
How should a fashion ecommerce brand allocate weekly marketing budget across channels while accounting for data quality, uncertainty, experiment calibration, and practical business constraints?
Measurement workflow
Validate Source Data
Check weekly marketing schema and upstream connector exports before modelling.
Assemble Weekly Dataset
Map ecommerce, GA4, paid media, CRM, affiliate, influencer, display, and control exports into an MMM-ready weekly table.
Diagnose Readiness
Review source coverage, history length, outcome quality, and channel availability.
Model Incremental Impact
Fit baseline econometrics, MMM-style response curves, Bayesian intervals, and experiment-informed calibration.
Plan Budget Scenarios
Compare gross-margin-aware budget options and constrained allocation recommendations.
