Marketing Mix Modeling Essentials (Burst Virtual)

A Practical Guide to Using MMM for Data-Driven Decisions
(Burst Virtual Workshop — 2 Hours)

Virtual Workshop Description
Marketing Mix Modeling (MMM) is one of the most powerful tools for understanding the impact of marketing activities on sales and ROI. Yet many marketers still see it as overly technical or the exclusive domain of data scientists. This online workshop changes that.

In this workshop, you'll learn the essential building blocks of MMM and discover how to translate data into clear, actionable insights that guide smarter decision-making. Rather than diving into complex coding or advanced statistical techniques, we focus on practical frameworks, real-world examples, and interactive exercises that give you confidence in applying MMM principles to your day-to-day marketing challenges. Along the way, we'll also highlight how AI is streamlining parts of the MMM process, making it easier for marketers to handle more data, test more scenarios, and communicate insights more effectively.

By the end of the workshop, you'll be able to:

  • Recognize which marketing activities have the greatest impact.
  • Understand how to evaluate ROI across channels and tactics.
  • See how data can inform pricing and promotional strategies.
  • Communicate MMM insights effectively to colleagues and stakeholders, including where AI can enhance the story.

Designed specifically for marketers who want to build a solid, non-technical foundation, this workshop equips you with the knowledge and tools to collaborate more effectively with analytics teams, understand where AI can add value, and champion data-driven decisions inside your organization.

Note: This workshop uses an online visual collaboration space for the group exercise. For best experience, participants are encouraged to ensure their company permissions will allow access to www.padlet.com.
