2. What Is Logistic Regression? ● Logistic Regression is used to calculate the probability of an event occurring ● Logistic Regression is used when the dependent variable in a regression (Y) is binary (can only be 1 or 0) ● Marketers use Logistic Regression to create quality scores that calculate the probability of a prospect buying http:// blog.excelmasterseries.com /

3. An Example of Marketing Use of Logistic Regression We have historic customer data for the following customer attributes for each past prospect: 1) Whether or not the prospect purchased 2) Prospect’s age and gender http:// blog.excelmasterseries.com /
