Space of advertising mailings is often limited and marketing campaigns suffer of stray based on different customer requirements. Our recommender model allows assigning of an individual offer selection – of a predefined offer pool – for every customer based on his preferences. Up to 100 offers can be assigned per customer.

Additionally, it’s possible to ensure quality of recommendation by further intuitive setting parameters. Our recommendations can be calculated for offers consisting of several as well as single articles, making it possible to use the Recommendation Engine independently from aisuite.

Translations: Nachricht = Message, Angebot = Offer, Kundenprofile = Customer profiles, Autorisierte Kanäle = Authorized channels

Our recommender model supplies answers to limited marketing budgets, end of line sales or targeted promotion of new articles. Based upon a predefined target group quantity, the desired number of customers are determined whose profiles have the highest affinity to the advertised offer. This maximizes sales opportunities of advertised articles and ensures efficient use of limited budgets.

With individually configurable parameters, you gain customized campaign solutions with this service as well. Based on the same methodology as the Next Best Offer approach, fitting customers can be found for an offer or even for individual articles.

Today, customers can be reached through numerous channels. However, preference of a particular channel is very individual. Some customers regularly read their e-mail, others let newsletters disappear among others and are never opened – but these customers might very well be active on WhatsApp.

Nevertheless, the most-used channel might not be the customer‘s top-selling channel. With our channel optimization, customers are always contacted by the channel they currently use the most and by which they also generate revenue. Of course, each campaign remains individually configurable for you, whether you’d like to use channel optimization or a channel defined by you.

Many customers have daily routines, but these are very individual. While some customers read their emails in the morning before work, others might not be addressable before the evening. This might vary from channel to channel as well.

This is why our delivery time optimization identifies the optimal time to address each channel and customer. This way, even without channel optimization, every customer can be contacted at the exact time he has shown the most activity on this channel lately. Usage of delivery time optimization remains individually configurable for you as well.

In order to send out campaigns in a more target-oriented manner, it is recommended to get to know your customers better first, requiring a qualitative grouping of your customers. For example, your top customers may react differently to advertising measures than your new customers or customers who are in danger of leaving.

Our RFMR Scoring provides the solution to this problem. RFMR stands for recency, frequency and monetary ratio and differentiates your customer base according to exactly these criteria: When did the customer‘s last purchase take place, how often does he make purchases and what revenue is being generated by him? Thanks to our calculation algorithms, these customer values are always adapted to your needs and up to date.

Translations: Kaufverhalten = Buying behaviour, Analyse = Analysis, Einzelscores = Individual scores, Gesamtscore = Total score

Translations: Dynamische Kundencluster = Dynamic customer clusters, Kundenscores = Customer Scores, Einzelzuordnung = Individual assignment, Gesamtzuordnung = Total allocation

RFMR scores provide a solid data basis for clustering your customers and determining the segments mentioned above. Value ranges of qualitative segments sometimes differ significantly depending on data structure, thus they should not be determined statically but calculated dynamically. We provide a solution for that issue as well: Our dynamic clustering algorithm adapts your customer’s behavior and thus always creates optimal customer segments.

In addition to RFMR values, other customer characteristics can also be taken into account by our algorithm – such as touch point activities, length of stay or demographic data. There is plenty of information of the customer that can be relevant for the calculation of customer value or the assignment to a customer cluster.
