# Resources ## Videos ### Bayesian Marketing Science - Solving Marketing's 3 Biggest Problems In this talk I will present two new open-source packages that make up a powerful and state-of-the-art marketing analytics toolbox. Specifically, PyMC-Marketing is a new library built on top of the popular Bayesian modeling library PyMC. PyMC-Marketing allows robust estimation of customer acquisition costs (via media mix modeling) as well as customer lifetime value. In addition, I will show how we can estimate the effectiveness of marketing campaigns using a new Bayesian causal inference package called CausalPy. The talk will be applied with a real-world case-study and many code examples. Special emphasis will be placed on the interplay between these tools and how they can be combined together to make optimal marketing budget decisions in complex scenarios.

The two main components of PyMC-Marketing - media mix modelling and customer lifetime value - will be presented by Ben Vincent, with input from Niall Oulton, and Christian Luhmann with input from Colt Allen, respectively. You will learn how PyMC-Marketing can be used to accurately model marketing campaigns and determine their effectiveness, as well as how it can help businesses understand and optimize their customer lifetime value.

These cases are not just theoretical constructs; they are real-world applications demonstrated by actual users of PyMC-Marketing. Witness firsthand how our platform has been instrumental in their success. To add more substance to our session and ensure it's not just informative but also engaging, we've planned a unique segment featuring the new GPT model developed by Niall. The new GPT will be the most powerful assistant to create MMM models.
