Life as an Analyst
Expert analyst Cathal Melinn talks with host Will Francis about what data analysis is really all about. In short his message is: "sessions don't buy, people do". They cover educated guesses, soft metrics, assumptions about human motivations, the creative joys of Excel, site optimization and A/B Testing, different social platforms' definition of a click or a conversion, the messiness of the attribution model, and even a bit of Aristotle.
