Experience
Uplift Model for Marketing Campaigns
I developed a machine learning model for predicting customers' uplift in marketing campaigns. To built the model, I collected the data via A/B testing, extracted the insights, chose ML and business metrics to track performance, prepared data for modeling, created the uplift model, and tested this model in offline and online environments.
Overall, this model helped to increase the profitability of marketing campaigns by 20%.
