Customer Success Story
A leading food and beverage CPG firm’s shopper insights team—a small team of data scientists—couldn’t keep up with demands for customer analytics from the firm’s 100+ internal brands. SI was bottlenecked by manual exploratory data analysis, feature engineering, and ML modeling/tuning in Python/Azure ML. This productivity drag threatened customer retention and sales volume growth goals, forcing brand managers to make critical promotion decisions via heuristics rather than data.
Tellius now enables brand leaders to perform their own ad hoc exploration and analysis; quickly pinpoint customer/brand trends for faster course correction; and augment large parts of the data science team’s manual ML modeling process in an explainable way. Shopper profile models are now generated 10x faster, with a 90% effectiveness rating—powering the brand team’s pricing optimization and targeted promotions and resulting in multimillion-dollar revenue growth and marketing impact. Additionally, the newfound analytics agility/speed has repaired disconnects between SI and brand teams, leading to a virtuous cycle of more business-informed models, higher-quality shopper profiles, and in turn, better targeting and more revenue.
