However, the company’s performance especially its profitability is decreasing due to increased competition and changing customer expectations. The company has well qualified board of directors who believe in the power of data analytics in solving business problems and thus make important business decisions.  Due to your data analytics skills and data science capability, the company executives have given you a special task in analysing the company’s sales data for each product segment and each geographic region.  The executives have requested you the following:

  • product name,
  • product price,
  • shipping type (free or customer paid)
  • monthly sales ($)
  • geographic region
  • Of customers who bought the product,
  • Customer type (New or existing)

You are also allowed to add any more attributes to describe product segment

Note: You must develop your own unique and original dataset – copying a dataset from another student or from the internet will result in reduced or zero marks.

  1. Research any specific data mining or classification technique and propose a suitable technique or model to determine any association or relationships among the attributes.
  2. Develop a predictive model to predict monthly sales for a given geographic region. You can use any of the methods such as Naive Bayes, decision trees or linear regression.

  • What is the most likely geographic region to target new customers to increase sales and profit?
