Clustering
The art of finding groups in data
Objective Gather items from a database into sets according to (unknown) common characteristics Much more difficult than classification since the classes are not known in advance (no training)
Profiling a segment How to develop Accurate Complete Current Unique customer profile
Important Identification Enriching profiles
Developing Marketing service concepts for each segment
Segmentation Aids in formulation of marketing strategy
Goal Approach customer groups in differentiated manner They become more satisfied and loyal They spend more with the supplier
Marketing service
Differentiation Product range Service Price Communication
Service concept can gain in quality Who is the person ? What motivates them ?
Segmentation research
Objective Who do we want to approach for a certain marketing campaign activity
Segmentation research
Three techniques RFM : Recency Frequency Monetary Value CHAID : Chi Squared Automated Interaction Detection CART : Classification And Regression Trees
Recency Freq Monetary Value
Background Historic behavior is better predictor than purchase intention and attitude Customers who spend most during certain period may not do so during a new marketing campaign
Recency Freq Monetary Value
Scores on three aspects Last purchase date Purchase frequency Amount spent
Last purchase
Scores ( weight 5 ) < 3 months

Purchase freq / Amount
Purchase frequency ( weight 3 ) No. of purchase in last 2 – 4 years x 4 Maximum score of 20
Amount spent ( weight 2 ) 10% of sum of purchase amounts in the last 2 years Maximum score of 20
RFM Example
RFM
Advantage Past behavior is more accurate predictor Uses transaction database
Disadvantage Best buyers selected for promotion They will experience excessive ‘Mail’ pressure
2. CHAID
CHAID Chi-squared Automated Interaction Detection
Produces a tree diagram Creates categorization within each group

3. CART analysis
CART Classification & Regression Trees
Produces a tree diagram Segment A is separated from Segment B Segmentation variables applied to sub-divide
Retention and cross-sell analysis
Retention & Cross selling
Retention & Cross selling
Retention question Which customers run an increased risk of ending relationship
Cross selling Customers may be stimulated to buy another product
Why retention ?
Customer satisfaction ?
Why retention ?
Retention
Opportunity Greatest gains may be realized Closing back door costs less than enticing customers with designer front door
Benefits More than a cross-sell or a deep-sell exercise Life time value is secured
Retention
Meaning Holding on to the customers
Determinant Definition of former or current customers Does someone become a departing customer at the moment he / she no longer buys a certain product Eg. Fairness cream
Retention
MarketWhysTM The Disposition Scale INSIST
The only brand consider using
Proportion of Preferrers
PREFER
One of the brands I prefer using
INTEND
Not one of the brands I prefer but would like to
ACCEPT NO OPINION NOT AWARE REJECT
try it I’d use it in certain circumstances only Heard of it but don’t know much about it Never heard of it Would never willingly buy it

How to increase value
Increase effectiveness of sales /
marketing Ways to shorten throughput time of the sales process ? Eliminate one step to speed up the process ? Can we make better selection of prospects ? Will training of sales people help increase conversion rate ? Have we applied the appropriate channels ?
Effectiveness of targeting
A step to relationship marketing Who do we select for a specific sales process ?
Benefits Allocation of marketing and sales resources to segments, products, acquisitions of new customers and retention of existing customers
Effectiveness of targeting
Lifetime value
Each interaction Takes relationship one step further Influences future interactions Direction of relationship
Type of interaction A welcome call A complaint Reward for continuing relationship Price discount during sales week
Learning organization
Dialogue with customer is important Knowledge about him Used in developing relationship Knowledge created from experience gained
Timing In a real time market, short response times are a pre-condition to success
Examples
Low business from long term customers Additional acquisition efforts required
New prospects Offer incentives to become customers

Learning
Task of management
Encourage learning process and not
punish it Motivation and inspiration must come from individual
Agents in call-centre Unable to convert numerous experience into knowledge Share it internally / externally
Mental models
Construction of an image of reality Bring reality to surface Hold it up to light Open for discussion Images of others should not be renounced
Shared vision
Common answer to ‘why are we doing
things this way’ to be developed Every department should have a goal to
achieve together Service employees are not to minimize cost Salesmen are not to maximize turnover Finance is not limited to reduction of WC
Team learning
Develop vision and knowledge into
actions Act collectively and learn from experience
Dialogue Assumptions removed Free exchange of information becomes possible Eg. A slow agent in a call centre may not make much sales but can give valuable customer information
Team learning
Life Time Value
What matter is …
Not transaction profit One transaction is not sufficient
… but lifetime value Customer’s profit contribution Very few companies arrive at reliable calculation of LCV
Issues
Difficult to calculate Economies and market changes Loyal customers become less loyal and profitable Investments designed results in losses
Necessity More MIS Insights into factors that bring final results
Lifetime Value
Definition Net present value of the future contribution by a customer to the overhead and profit of a company
Accurate calculation All income and expense are allocated to each customer
Example
The sum of the future profits yielded is 523 Assuming a discount rate of 10%, the CLV at moment 0 is 398

Customer Lifetime Value
Lifetime Value
Formal definition: The total net incoming a company can expect from a customer
Abstract definition: Future profit from a customer OR how much the customer is worth now
Depends on many factors Subscriber (telecom) vs. visitor (e-commerce)
Business Uses
Numbers are of interest for marketing
For effective decision support need LTV
before and after marketing activities Retention, incentive allocation, acquisition etc.
Profit estimate LTV after – LTV before – cost
Calculation
Calculation Customer turnover - Discount granted + Shipping cost passed on to customer + Supplier’s credit
Gross turnover - Turnover from returns
Net order sales - Cost of goods / service sold - Administrative / Physical Order processing cost - Admin / Physical Order cost of processing returns - Bad debt expenses - Cost of acquisition & relationship management
Customer’s contr’ to O/H and profit of organisn’
Example
Difficulties
Insights Actual expenses Reliable cost estimates Acquire, serve & manage relationships
Identify customers In order to arrive at actual calculation Intermediaries involved
Resolution
1. Value calculation Segment level instead of individual customer level
2. Restricted time period Expected income or expense only for first two or three years
1. Segments-based approach
1. Segments-based approach Segment is basic entity in marketing strategy Based on elaborate research and modeling Decisions (campaigns, incentives, channels) are done at segment level Segments implicitly assumed “homogeneous” for specific property considered
So for marketing purposes we really only
need LTV at the segment level
2. Time Horizon
2. Time Horizon
Theoretically, the horizon should be
infinite. It is unmanageable in the reality Long-term relationship is important Take a long horizon, e.g. 10 years
Short-term relationship is important Take a small horizon, e.g. 1 year
In the empirical application Use a horizon of 2 years
Estimating Future Value
This is a forecasting problem Seasonality effects Market changes, competitor activity
Common solutions “Leave to experts” Use current customer value from current data
Segment-based approach makes it easier Need only “average” correct forecast
RFM Variables
Recency the most recent date that the customer has requested for a service (usually a purchase )
Frequency The number of time the customer has purchased
Monetary Total dollar amount that a customer has spent

Study by Le Beouf:
“The reasons why customers no longer dealt with a particular supplier”
Benefits of CLV
By knowing the CLV, one can Focus on groups of customers of equal wealth Evaluate the budget of a marketing campaign Measure the efficiency of a past marketing campaign by evaluating the CLV change it incurred Focus on the most valuable customers, which deserve to be closely followed Neglect the less valuable ones, to which the company should pay less attention
