Customer Segmentation in Python

4.8(165)
Intermediate 4 hours English Completion Certificate

About this course

Customer Segmentation in Python covers three real-world segmentation techniques in sequence: cohort analysis to track customer trends over time, RFM (recency, frequency, monetary value) scoring to build interpretable segments, and k-means clustering to make those segments more powerful using a real anonymized retailer transaction dataset.

The honest take: the Supervised Learning with scikit-learn prerequisite is real — this isn't a marketing course that happens to use code, it's a hands-on analytics course that assumes you can already build and evaluate basic models. The reviews (5/5, "excellent for customer analysis") suggest the techniques transfer well to real segmentation work.
