Last updated

Evaluates revenue cannibalization analysis across creation sources. Strong answers define Source A, other-source revenue, total revenue, cannibalization ratio, and net lift, then use panel, rollout, difference-in-differences, or synthetic-control evidence to separate source shifting from organic growth.

Scenario

Management wants evidence that revenue growth from one creation_source is caused by cannibalization from other sources rather than organic growth.

Question

Design an analysis to demonstrate whether next year’s revenue increase for a specific creation_source is offset by declines in other sources.

Hints

Discuss causal inference approach: difference-in-differences, control groups, fixed effects, time-series regression, or experiment with traffic re-allocation.
