The Brief:

Customer Satisfaction and Loyalty Analytics Challenge

Step into the role of a data analyst at OmniRetail, a U.S. retail chain selling electronics and smart home products through both online and physical stores. To improve customer satisfaction and retention, the company has collected feedback throughout 2024.

You’ve been provided with a customer satisfaction dataset combining satisfaction scores, purchasing behavior, demographics, support history, and location data.

Your mission is to create an analytical report that identifies the key factors influencing customer satisfaction and loyalty across different regions, customer demographics, and support experiences.

Key questions to guide your analysis:

• What are the main factors contributing to high vs. low satisfaction scores?
• Are certain customer segments (by age, gender, group) more loyal than others?
• Which locations (cities or states) report consistently high or low satisfaction scores?
• Does contacting customer support negatively impact satisfaction?
• How do factors like “Price” or “Product Variety” influence customer loyalty?
• Do repeat purchasers report higher satisfaction compared to one-time buyers?
• Are there regional clusters of highly loyal or dissatisfied customers based on location data?
• What is the relationship between loyalty level and satisfaction score?
• Do specific demographic groups favor certain satisfaction factors (e.g., Packaging vs. Price)?

Use these questions as a springboard - don’t hesitate to explore deeper relationships. Your insights could help reshape the customer experience strategy for the brand.
