Why you should not miss this workshop?

You heard that using R is in, but you don’t know why.
Correlation, regression, and standard deviation are going to become useful swearwords you’ll be tempted to find out more about.
You’d like to bring nice charts – those you can’t just create in Google Analytics – from the festival for your boss.
You don’t enjoy predicting trends from a crystal ball.
You’re not afraid of rolling up your sleeves and getting dirty with data.

What will you learn?

You’ll try practical procedures for using data from Google Analytics in the R statistical program without any theoretical speeches on statistics. In the workshop, I’ll introduce to you the R program and show you frequently used methods for analyzing data. You’ll be able to test all of this directly on your own data. Together we’ll discuss if you can stay calm when orders drop by 30% or if a 1.35% conversion ratio campaign is really better than a campaign with a 1.1% conversion ratio. We’ll examine time series in order to understand seasonality in sales and website traffic, and we’ll use it to estimate how much you can sell this Christmas.

What do I need for attending?

You’ll appreciate the workshop if you regularly use data from Google Analytics and have some experience with creating your own reports. If you work with orders or queries from the website, you’ll find the practical examples tailored to your needs. You’ll need a laptop (Win, Mac, and Linux) with the R and Rstudio programs installed.
