Nielsen Coupon Drop Analysis (ACE)


Situation:

At A.C. Nielsen customers would request expectations of coupon redemption, if they would advertise in certain newspapers with a certain product. Marketing would use a default bell curve graph they had and use the same information all year long.

Task:

Create a system that would use the past 36 months of historical data to predict the bell curve, not only for the product but the newspapers in which the advertisement was printed.

Action:

I exported the data from the IBM 3090. Created a B-Tree database system, then created the software to display the appropriate bell curve from the data.

Result:

Not only did I provide the software for internal use, the software was changed to a customer product (ACE) with monthly renewal of data. I installed it at the Hershey chocolate plant in Hershey, PA.
