Beginner’s Guide to Machine Learning and Power BI: Building a Lead Scoring Dashboard
Step-by-Step Tutorial for Building a Machine Learning-Powered Lead Scoring Dashboard with Power BI
Introduction
This tutorial will walk you through the process of building a lead scoring dashboard with Power BI. We will use a dataset of 1000 leads and build a machine learning model with pycaret to predict the likelihood of a lead converting to a customer. We will then use the model to score the leads, store the new lead dataset in a PostgreSQL database and visualize the results in Power BI.
You can find the code for this tutorial on my GitHub here.
