Advanced6 projects

Portfolio-grade work, each with a graded skills check.

Business AnalyticsAdvanced4 to 6 hours

Scope and prepare a subscription churn analysis

Before a single chart, do the hard part: turn a vague 'why are we losing subscribers' into a precise question, then join and prepare two messy exports into an analysis-ready table.

Business AnalyticsAdvanced4 to 6 hours

Scope and prepare a promo effectiveness study

The founder wants to double promo spend. Your job is to frame the question correctly first: attributed vs incremental revenue, ROAS traps, and the selection bias hiding in who uses codes.

TableauAdvanced4 to 6 hours

Build a cohort retention dashboard in Tableau

Order-level data in, a signup-cohort retention triangle out. This is the LOD-and-table-calc project that separates a chart-maker from an analyst.

TableauAdvanced4 to 6 hours

Rep quota and YoY analysis with Tableau LOD

Attainment as a ratio of sums, year-over-year as a table calc, share of total as a FIXED LOD: the three calculations executives ask for and analysts most often get subtly wrong.

Power BIAdvanced4 to 6 hours

Time intelligence measures in Power BI

A proper date table, then YoY, YTD, margin, and a moving average in DAX. The measures every analyst is expected to write, and the filter-context reasoning behind them.

Power BIAdvanced4 to 6 hours

Customer cohort and retention DAX in Power BI

New vs returning, repeat rate, AOV, and share of segment, built with SUMX, DISTINCTCOUNT, and CALCULATE with ALL. The measures that separate row context from filter context.
