Maximizing customers' lifetime value using limited marketing resources
PurposeFor any given customer, his/her profitability for a business enterprise can be estimated by the so-called customer lifetime value (CLV). One specific goal for many enterprises consists in maximizing the aggregated CLV associated with its set of customers. To achieve this goal, a company uses marketing resources (e.g. marketing campaigns), which are usually expensive.Design/methodology/approachThis paper proposes a formal model of the Customer Life Value problem inspired by the uncapacitated facility location problem.FindingsThe computational experiments conducted by the authors illustrate the potential of the approach when compared with a standard (non-algorithm-supported) one.Originality/valueThe approach leads up to the economic trade-off between the volume of the employed resources and the aggregated CLV, i.e. the higher the number of resources utilized, but also the higher the cost of achieving this level of lifetime value. Hence, the number of resources to be “activated” has to be decided, and the effect of each of these resources on each CLV will depend upon how “close” the resource is from the corresponding customer (i.e. how large will the impact of the active resource on the customer).
期刊介绍:
Marketing Intelligence & Planning (MIP) facilitates communication between researchers and practitioners, providing the users of research with a wealth of robust and relevant information. At a time when some journals are losing their relevance to industry and practical requirements, MIP successfully offers a bridge between academic and practitioner thinking, while retaining a high level of scientific rigour.
