When you're looking to grow your coffee business, predictive modeling is the key. It helps you predict how different growth scenarios will play out, so you can make informed decisions about where to focus your efforts and money. This allows you to experiment with new ideas without having to actually try them out first—which is expensive!


BUSINESS OUTCOMES
Predictive modeling makes growth planning easier
Regardless of whether you're considering growing your roasting capacity by as little as 10,000 lbs or as much as 1,000,000 lbs per year, predictive modeling can help you play with different scenarios and predict their likely outcome. It helps you understand how varying customer acquisition costs, margins, and retention rates impact your bottom line and why some coffee businesses succeed while many fail.


CAMPAIGN OUTCOMES
Identify what marketing campaigns to invest in
To succeed with marketing, you have to know not only how many clients you've gotten but also the cost of acquiring them, the price they bought at, and the likelihood that they'll return. We use predictive modeling to visualize the impacts of simple campaigns consisting of one to two ads, to complex campaigns that spread across multiple touchpoints and marketing channels over time.


PRODUCT & SERVICES OUTCOMES
when you're launching a new coffee or service, it's important to think about the big picture
We use predictive modeling give you a sense of how likely it is that a product or service will be successful based on demand, alternative offers and other factors. This helps you plan what coffees you should introduce when and where so you can always be sure that your customers are getting the best experience possible.


CUSTOMER LIFECYCLE VALUE
See how your investment is performing
Customer lifetime value (CLV) is another type of predictive modeling—it looks at how much money a customer will spend over their lifetime with your company, by taking into account everything they've spent so far and then estimating future spending based on their past behavior with similar products/services/etcetera.
