This book is a complete introduction to the power of R for marketing research practitioners. The text describes statistical models from a conceptual point of view with a minimal amount of mathematics, presuming only an introductory knowledge of statistics. Hands-on chapters accelerate the learning curve by asking readers to interact with R from the beginning. Core topics include the R language, basic statistics, linear modeling, and data visualization, which is presented throughout as an integral part of analysis. Later chapters cover more advanced topics yet are intended to be approachable for all analysts. These sections examine logistic regression, customer segmentation, hierarchical linear modeling, market basket analysis, structural equation modeling, and conjoint analysis in R. The text uniquely presents Bayesian models with a minimally complex approach, demonstrating and explaining Bayesian methods alongside traditional analyses for analysis of variance, linear models, and metric and choice-based conjoint analysis. With its emphasis on data visualization, model assessment, and development of statistical intuition, this book provides guidance for any analyst looking to develop or improve skills in R for marketing applications.
This book is for:
Marketing research practitioners seeking to learn R.
Data scientists interested in marketing applications.
Marketing students and academics interested in practical applications.
Researchers in related fields who are interested in marketing methods or who encounter classic marketing problems.
Reviews
R for Marketing Research and Analytics provides an excellent introduction to the R statistical package for marketing researchers. This is a must-have book for anyone who seriously pursues analytics in the field of marketing. R is the software gold-standard in the research industry, and this book provides an introduction to R and shows how to run the analysis. Topics range from graphics and exploratory methods to confirmatory methods including structural equation modeling, all illustrated with data. A great contribution to the field!

R for Marketing Research and Analytics is the perfect book for those interested in driving success for their business and for students looking to get an introduction to R. While many books take a purely academic approach, Chapman (Google) and Feit (formerly of GM and the Modellers) know exactly what is needed for practical marketing problem solving. I am an expert R user, yet had never thought about a textbook that provides the soup-to-nuts way that Chapman and Feit do: show how to load a data set, explore it using visualization techniques, analyze it using statistical models, and then demonstrate the business implications. It is a book that I wish I had written.
--Eric Bradlow, K.P. Chao Professor, Chairperson, Wharton Marketing Department, and Co-Director, Wharton Customer Analytics Initiative
Chris Chapman's and Elea Feit's engaging and authoritative book nicely fills a gap in the literature. At last we have an accessible book that presents core marketing research methods using the tools and vernacular of modern data science. The book will enable marketing researchers to up their game by adopting the R statistical computing environment. And data scientists with an interest in marketing problems now have a reference that speaks to them in their language.
--James Guszcza, Chief Data Scientist, Deloitte - US
Finally a highly accessible guide for getting started with R. Feit and Chapman have applied years of lessons learned to developing this easy-to-use guide, designed to quickly build a strong foundation for applying R to sound analysis. The authors succeed in demystifying R by employing a likeable and practical writing style, along with sensible organization and comfortable pacing of the material. In addition to covering all the most important analysis techniques, the authors are generous throughout in providing tips for optimizing R’s efficiency and identifying common pitfalls. With this guide, anyone interested in R can begin using it confidently in a short period of time for analysis, visualization, and for more advanced analytics procedures. R for Marketing Research and Analytics is the perfect guide and reference text for the casual and advanced user alike.

老实说,我原本对这类技术性强的书籍抱有很高的戒备心,总担心内容会过于学术化,读完后依然两眼一抹黑。然而,这本书的叙述风格却异常地接地气,充满了实战的智慧。作者似乎非常懂得读者在真实工作场景中会遇到的痛点,总能在关键时刻给出“过来人”的经验之谈。比如,在处理缺失值和异常值时,它提供的不仅仅是几种标准化的处理方法,更深入地探讨了每种方法背后的业务含义和潜在风险,这才是真正有价值的洞察力。我尤其喜欢其中关于A/B测试设计和结果解读的章节,讲解得丝丝入扣,避免了许多初级分析师常犯的逻辑陷阱。读完这部分,我立刻信心倍增,准备着手优化我们部门下个季度的用户体验测试方案。这本书的结构安排也极其人性化,知识点的递进非常自然,让人在不知不觉中完成了从基础概念到高级建模的跨越,这种“润物细无声”的学习体验,是很多教材难以企及的。
评分我必须得说,这本书的配套资源和作者的“匠心”让人印象深刻。虽然我主要是在阅读纸质版,但书中时不时提示的在线代码仓库和数据包下载链接,为后续的深入学习提供了坚实的基础。这表明作者不仅完成了写作任务,更是在构建一个持续支持读者的学习生态。从内容上看,它对“营销研究”的理解非常现代化,紧跟行业前沿,例如对社交媒体数据挖掘和情感分析的提及,显示了作者对当前数据环境的深刻洞察。最令我赞叹的是它对“解释性”的强调。在这个“模型至上”的时代,这本书反复提醒我们,一个无法被业务团队理解的模型,其价值是有限的。因此,书中对模型诊断和结果可视化的讲解,都围绕着如何清晰、无歧义地向非技术人员传达分析结论展开,这在我的日常工作中是极度稀缺的技能点。读完后,我感觉自己不仅学会了如何“算数”,更重要的是学会了如何“讲数”。
评分这本书的排版真是让人耳目一新。从目录的设计到章节的过渡,都透露着一股严谨而又不失活泼的气息。我特别欣赏它在理论讲解与实际案例之间的平衡把握。读起来一点也不枯燥,感觉就像是身边有一位经验丰富的导师在手把手地教你如何将那些复杂的统计模型应用于实际的市场营销问题中。特别是那些图表和代码示例,清晰明了,让我这个初学者也能迅速跟上节奏,不再对“数据分析”感到畏惧。书中的数据可视化部分做得尤为出色,不同的可视化方法不仅展示了数据的多面性,更重要的是,它教会了我如何用图形化的方式讲好一个商业故事,这对于我们这些需要向管理层汇报结果的人来说,简直是太重要了。每一次翻阅,都能发现新的细节和技巧,可以说,它不仅仅是一本教科书,更像是一本实用的工具箱,里面的工具都打磨得锃亮,随时准备好应对各种挑战。我感觉自己对“R语言”的掌握度又上了一个台阶,不再满足于跑通代码,而是开始思考如何优化模型、提升预测的准确性。
评分对于那些希望从“数据使用者”蜕变为“数据驱动决策者”的专业人士来说,这本书的价值是无可估量的。它的叙事节奏沉稳而有力,层层递进,没有丝毫的拖沓感。它真正做到了将R语言的强大功能,与市场营销决策流程完美地结合起来,而不是将两者割裂开来介绍。我特别欣赏它对假设检验在营销场景中应用的细致剖析,很多教科书只是轻描淡写,但这本书却深入挖掘了不同检验方法背后的统计假设及其对营销结论可能造成的偏差影响。这使得我的分析结果更加稳健和可信。阅读过程中,我常常会停下来,思考作者提出的每一个观点,并对照自己过去的项目经验进行反思。这本书引发的这种深度思考,远超出一本常规技术书的范畴,它更像是一次思维模式的重塑,让我对如何设计严谨的研究、如何从数据中提炼出可执行的商业策略,有了全新的、更具战略性的理解。
评分这本书的深度和广度都超出了我的预期。它没有停留在对基础统计概念的重复介绍上,而是迅速切入到了那些真正能体现分析师价值的高阶议题,比如如何构建更具解释力的因果推断模型,以及如何利用机器学习算法来预测客户流失和终身价值。阅读过程中,我发现作者在理论阐述上非常严谨,引用的文献和方法论都经过了精挑细选,保证了内容的权威性。但最让我惊喜的是,这些深奥的知识点,都被巧妙地转化成了可以在R环境中直接运行的、可复现的代码块。这种理论与实践无缝对接的方式,极大地加速了我的学习曲线。我不再需要花费大量时间去猜测如何在代码中实现书本上的数学公式,直接对照示例就能上手,这对于时间紧张的职场人士来说,简直是福音。感觉这本书就像是为我量身定做的一份“速成指南”,但它的“速成”是建立在扎实的知识体系之上的,绝非肤浅的技巧堆砌。
评分可以说是相当清晰又实用了。。。
评分唯一一本让我对编程不恐惧反而觉得有趣的书,尤其是有了statistics基础之后读起来更觉得R用来处理数据的强大,希望越来越多的marketing analyst能够接受R,拥抱更大的世界。
评分可以说是相当清晰又实用了。。。
评分口渴了才挖井,一个多星期边学边用,压力果然是第一生产力。语法本身并不难各种细节处理才是烦人的环节,总的来说,蛮好的入门书籍
评分唯一一本让我对编程不恐惧反而觉得有趣的书,尤其是有了statistics基础之后读起来更觉得R用来处理数据的强大,希望越来越多的marketing analyst能够接受R,拥抱更大的世界。
