What is Predictive Analytics? Predictive analytics deals with extracting information from data and using it to predict trends and behavior patterns. Often the unknown event of interest is in the future, but predictive analytics can be applied to any type of unknown whether it be in the past, present or future. (Wikipedia)
Types of Predictive Analytics • Predictive (propensity) What is our expected contract churn this quarter? • Descriptive (clustering & segmentation) Which customers would respond well to a discount offer? • Decision (optimisation & recommendations) What is the best layout for certain products in a store?

Using Predictive Analytics with QlikView • Consulting Engagement Building analytic models with R and storing the data in a new database for Qlikview to access • Third-party Tools (such as Alteryx) Using pre-built analytic components to load data directly into QlikView
BasketAnalysis • Potential Benefits of Basket Analysis • Aim of the analysis is to identify actionable information, such as: • Purchase profiles by uncovering consumer spending patterns, • Profitability of each purchase profile, • Insight about fast and slow moving products, • Design and layout of catalogues exploiting cross-sell and upsell opportunities, • Selection of appropriate products for promotion including bundling, coupons etc., and • Shelf space allocation and product placement e.g. affinity positioning. • Where should detergents be placed in the store to maximise their sales? • Are window cleaning products purchases when detergents and orange juice are bought together? • Are carbonated soft drinks typically purchased with fruit and vegetables? • Is there potential for cross-sell and up-sell of goods?
To understand which combinations of goods should be bundled, discounted or placed strategically together in order to increase volumes Cross-Sell Opportunity • ‘Bundle sugar and washing powder to increase the likelihood of a customer purchasing goods across product categories.’ • Consumers who buy sugar, have a high probability of purchasing associated goods such as creamersand maize, i.e. sugar is a ‘product driver’ • Bundling product drivers increases basket size, prevents consumers from purchasing associated products from competitors and creates affinity for the retailer
To understand which combinations of goods should be bundled, discounted or placed strategically together in order to increase volumes Discount Opportunity • ‘Discount Roll-ons to attract customers to buy at the retailer, increasing the likelihood that customers purchase associated products such as aerosols, toothpaste etc.’ • By incentivising customers to purchase Roll-ons at the retailer, there is an increased probability they will also buy the associated goods, such as aerosols, toothpaste, hand & body lotions etc.
To understand which combinations of goods should be bundled, discounted or placed strategically together in order to increase volumes Product Placement Opportunity • ‘Place associated products such as baking powder and custards far from jelly, compelling customers to walk through other parts of the store, increasing the likelihood of other products being purchased.’ • Customers purchasing jelly have a high probability to purchase associated items such as baking powder etc. By placing these items apart, we compel the customer to walk through the store to get both, thereby increasing the chance of other purchases.
As prices increase, customers tend to substitute Tastic rice for other similar goods or switch to competing stores Price Elasticity A 7% decrease in price will lead to a 29% increase in daily quantity purchased. Overall effect is a net gain. • Notes: • Rice is a KVI and part of a list of products with prices most remembered • The elasticity at different price points indicates that consumers are sensitive to the price Relatively Inelasticɛ = 1,7 Relatively Elasticɛ = 3,79 -7% 29% Consumers decrease the volumes purchased at higher price points. The slope indicates that prices above R22 are relatively more inelastic.
