Client frameworks

Business question first. Model second. Decision last.

Three repeatable ways to turn a marketing or customer question into a model your team can act on. The scope changes from client to client; the shape doesn't.

Each framework fixes the question, the data it needs, the methods that answer it and the deliverable your team actually uses.

Framework 01

Audiences that matter

Uncover the customers and accounts that matter most with data-driven precision — who buys, who's about to leave, and who's worth the next dollar of acquisition or retention spend.

Consumer insights8–12 weeks typical
Questions it answers
Who are our highest-value customers and what do they have in common? Which accounts are most likely to churn in the next quarter? Who inside a buying organization actually influences the purchase? How healthy is each brand in the portfolio?
Data it uses
Transactions and product usage, CRM and account records, digital behavior and clickstream, survey and review text, firmographics and demographics. Messy or partial data is normal — the first week establishes what's usable.
Methods
Behavioral and psychographic segmentation; AI-driven micro-segmentation for personalization; propensity, churn and retention models; purchase-influencer identification without a clean CRM; NLP sentiment on reviews and social; brand-health and cross-brand engagement scoring.
What you get
Named, sized segments with personas your marketing team can brief against; a scored customer or account list refreshed on a schedule; a brand-health scorecard; and the model code, documented and handed over.
Decisions it enables
Where to focus retention spend, which segments to build for, how to prioritize sales outreach, and which brands need investment versus harvesting.
Framework 02

What drives conversion

Identify what truly drives conversion — and where to invest for maximum impact across channels, campaigns, prices and product pairings.

Marketing analytics10–14 weeks typical
Questions it answers
Which channels and campaigns actually move revenue, and which just get credit? What is the true acquisition cost and lifetime value by segment? If we shift budget, what happens? Which products sell each other, and what should we recommend?
Data it uses
Marketing spend and impressions by channel, campaign performance, web and app analytics, e-commerce orders and baskets, pricing and promotion history, CRM conversion events.
Methods
Marketing mix modeling and multi-touch attribution; CAC / LTV and channel-performance analytics; campaign diagnostics, incrementality and A/B test design; demand forecasting and price-positioning analysis; a proprietary association-rules model for product pairing that works on single-item transactions.
What you get
A budget-allocation view that shows the expected lift of moving spend; attribution and CAC / LTV dashboards your team can run scenarios in; product-pairing recommendations ready for the site or the CRM; and the models behind all of it, deployed and monitored.
Decisions it enables
Next quarter's media mix, which campaigns to scale or cut, pricing and promotion depth, and what to cross-sell to whom.
Framework 03

Adoption and time to value

Predict adoption, remove friction and guide users to value faster — for new features, new products and new AI capabilities.

Product & growth8–12 weeks typical
Questions it answers
Which users and accounts are ready to adopt what we just launched? Where in onboarding do people stall? What does the journey look like across web, app and in-store, and where does it leak? How should the go-to-market be sequenced?
Data it uses
Product and feature usage events, onboarding funnels, account attributes and readiness signals, omnichannel journey and clickstream data, cart and session abandonment, support and feedback text.
Methods
Feature- and AI-adoption readiness scoring at user and account level; usage-based segmentation and activation analytics; journey mapping and friction diagnosis across channels; ICP refinement and buyer-journey insight; targeted-intervention testing.
What you get
A readiness score for every account, with the signals behind it; a ranked list of friction points with expected impact; an activation dashboard; and a GTM sequence your marketing and product teams can run against.
Decisions it enables
Who to target first for a launch, what to fix in onboarding, where to invest in the journey, and how to measure adoption as a number rather than an anecdote.
Beyond the three. The same approach covers consumer perception and sentiment, product and demand forecasting, market and competitor intelligence, and omnichannel journey analytics. If your question doesn't fit a framework above, it still fits the method.
