Installation#

Install and activate an environment (e.g. marketing_env) with the pymc-marketing package from conda-forge. It may look something like the following:

conda create -c conda-forge -n marketing_env pymc-marketing
conda activate marketing_env

Installation for developers#

If you are a developer of pymc-marketing, or want to start contributing, refer to the contributing guide to get started.

See the official PyMC installation guide if more detail is needed.

Quickstart#

Create a new Jupyter notebook with either JupyterLab or VS Code.

JupyterLab Notebook#

After installing the pymc-marketing package (see above), run the following with marketing_env activated:

conda install -c conda-forge jupyterlab
jupyter lab

VS Code Notebook#

After installing the pymc-marketing package (see above), run the following with marketing_env activated:

conda install -c conda-forge ipykernel

Start VS Code and ensure that the “Jupyter” extension is installed. Press Ctrl + Shift + P and type “Python: Select Interpreter”. Ensure that marketing_env is selected. Press Ctrl + Shift + P and type “Create: New Jupyter Notebook”.

MMM Quickstart#

import pandas as pd
from pymc_marketing.mmm import DelayedSaturatedMMM


data_url = "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pymc-labs/pymc-marketing/main/datasets/mmm_example.csv"
data = pd.read_csv(data_url, parse_dates=['date_week'])

mmm = DelayedSaturatedMMM(
    date_column="date_week",
    channel_columns=["x1", "x2"],
    control_columns=[
        "event_1",
        "event_2",
        "t",
    ],
    adstock_max_lag=8,
    yearly_seasonality=2,
)

Initiate fitting and get a visualization of some of the outputs with:

X = data.drop('y',axis=1)
y = data['y']
mmm.fit(X,y)
mmm.plot_components_contributions();

See the Example notebooks section for examples of further types of plot you can get, as well as introspect the results of the fitting.

CLV Quickstart#

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import pandas as pd
import seaborn as sns
from pymc_marketing import clv


data_url = "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pymc-labs/pymc-marketing/main/datasets/clv_quickstart.csv"
data = pd.read_csv(data_url)
data['customer_id'] = data.index

beta_geo_model = clv.BetaGeoModel(
    data = data
)

beta_geo_model.fit()

Once fitted, we can use the model to predict the number of future purchases for known customers, the probability that they are still alive, and get various visualizations plotted. See the Examples section for more on this.
