Learn Marketing Analytics, Experimentation and Responsible AI
Measure a question, not just a number
Analytics describes what happened and helps investigate why, but a metric is useful only when its definition, data quality and limitations are understood. Begin with a question, the decision it may inform and the event needed.
Build a measurement plan
- Define events in plain language, including exclusions.
- Use consistent campaign tags without personal information in URLs.
- Check duplicates, broken links and reporting windows.
- Pair volume with quality or outcome measures where possible.
- Document attribution assumptions; reported conversions do not prove incremental impact.
Experiment carefully
State a hypothesis and change one main variable where practical. Consider seasonality, audience overlap and sample size. A directional result from a small test is not proof. Keep a test log and report uncertainty.
Use AI responsibly
AI may organize research or summarize appropriate non-sensitive reports. Do not submit personal, confidential or client data without authorization and safeguards. Verify facts and calculations, check bias and sources, and ensure work is permitted and original. People remain accountable. Minimize data collection, restrict access and define retention.
