Enginius in action: conjoint analysis

The trade-off companies often need to make between profit and market shares is incredibly hard to explain to students. How could these two concepts not go naturally hand in hand? In this video, we demonstrate the Conjoint Analysis model in Enginius, and how conjoint simulations can be used to illustrate the tradeoff between market shares and profit using the concept of Pareto frontier.
(Duration: 3 min. 25 sec.)

Enginius in action: predictive modeling

Enginius packs a powerful yet simple-to-use Predictive Model (multinomial logit, linear regression, etc.). In this short video, we demonstrate how customers’ loyalty can be predicted based on past purchase patterns such as recency, frequency and average purchase amount. We also illusttrate the discrete-continuous model, where the model predicts simulateneously whether a customer is going to be loyal, and if so, how much she will spend.

An Introduction to Marketing Engineering

Posted in New Instructors

Principles 3rd cover 150x211Welcome to Marketing Engineering. Several forces are transforming the structure and content of the marketing profession. Marketers are seeing increasingly faster changes in the marketplace and are barraged with an ever increasing amount of information. While many view traditional marketing as art and some view it as science, the new marketing increasingly looks like engineering. These textbooks, combined with a comprehensive collection of leading-edge software models provides the student with the know-how and tools to collect the right information and perform analysis to make better marketing plans, better product designs, and better decisions.

mexlsoftwareThe purpose in writing these books is to help educate and train a new generation of marketing managers. Our goal is to train marketing engineers to translate concepts into context-specific operational decisions and actions using analytical, quantitative, and computer modeling techniques. We link theory to practice and practice to theory.

Marketing Engineering is combination of textbookssoftware, and business cases developed and written by Professors Gary L. LilienArvind Rangaswamy, and Arnaud De Bruyn. The textbooks, software, and cases are intended to be used in conjunction with one another to provide theory (textbook), computer modeling techniques (software), and context-specific operations decisions and action (business cases).

  • I think you've put together a great product for teaching marketing. My students really feel like they're learning a lot from the software and applications in the New Products module of Marketing Engineering. I'll definitely be using it again when I teach two sections of the course next year.... Based on my interactions with students over the years, I know that there is a big need for user-friendly software that enables firms to apply all of these models.
