2021: Week 23 - NPS for Airlines

Challenge by: Jenny Martin

This week Prep Air are looking into their Net Promoter Score (NPS) and how this compares with a variety of other new airlines. NPS usually takes the form of asking customers "How likely ae you to recommend this company on a scale of 0-10?" You then subtract the detractors of your company from the promoters and end up with a score between -100 and +100. The higher the NPS, the better!

However, like most metrics, on its own it doesn't tell you a lot. Do customers feel strongly one way or the other about any airlines? So it would be good to compare Prep Air's NPS with other airline's Net Promoter Scores too! In this challenge we'll use Z-Scores to standardise the scores and see whether Prep Air is above or below average.

Inputs

1. Prep Air's customer ratings:

2. Other Airlines customer ratings

Requirements

  • Input the data
  • Combine Prep Air dataset with other airlines
  • Exclude any airlines who have had less than 50 customers respond
  • Classify customer responses to the question in the following way:
    • 0-6 = Detractors
    • 7-8 = Passive
    • 9-10 = Promoters
  • Calculate the NPS for each airline
    • NPS = % Promoters - % Detractors
      • Note: I rounded the %s down to the nearest whole number, so if your answer differs slightly from mine then this could be why! 
  • Calculate the average and standard deviation of the dataset
  • Take each airline's NPS and subtract the average, then divide this by the standard deviation
  • Filter to just show Prep Air's NPS along with their Z-Score
  • Output the data

Output

  • 3 fields
    • Airline
    • NPS
    • Z-Score
  • 1 row (2 including headers)

Challenge By: Jenny Martin For week 2 of our beginner month, Data Source Bank has a requirement to construct International Bank Account Numbers (IBANs), even for Transactions taking place in the UK.

How to...Handle Free Text

Image
Free isn't always a good thing. In data, Free text is the example to state when proving that statements correct. However, lots of benefit can be gained from understanding data that has been entered in Free Text fields. What do we mean by Free Text? Free Text is the string based data that comes from allowing people to type answers in to systems and forms. The resulting data is normally stored within one column, with one answer per cell. As Free Text means the answer could be anything, this is what you get - absolutely anything. From expletives to slang, the words you will find in the data may be a challenge to interpret but the text is the closest way to collect the voice of your customer / employee. The Free Text field is likely to contain long, rambling sentences that can simply be analysed. If you count these fields, you are likely to have one of each entry each. Therefore, simply counting the entries will not provide anything meaningful to your analysis. The value is in
