BI CRM Implications• Old way: Manual searches and data entry• Finding documents only by words occurring in the documents• New way: Search web based on meanings and context rather
than specific words• Semantic web• Text/data mining software can store large amounts of
people/event info in TDWI facilities.• Similar capacity to a research librarian or intel analyst• Large data sets facilitate social network analysis or counter
intel• Stepping stone to communication machine to machine,
symbiosis, then singularity

Key to customer spending• Measure lifecycle of long life customers• Future spending evolution• Improve relationship marketing decision making• Marketing point of view• Focus on new customer’s increasing /decreasing future
spending from initial purchase info• Taxonomical granularity• Bayesian network classifiers to classify customer value
and targeting in database• Probability and statistic pattern learning algorithms• AI/BI interface to maximize data collected
![Page 5: AI/BI and CRM](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062417/54b524744a7959902c8b45b9/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Customer Lifecycle
• AI allows for much more accurate BI in identifying the lifecycle of long life customers
![Page 6: AI/BI and CRM](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062417/54b524744a7959902c8b45b9/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
AI/BI vs Customer Lifetime Value
• From a 2006 Oracle white paper• Company looks to balance sheets• Often ignore soft assets (customers)• Most valuable asset• Company’s culture vs customer relations• unique, long term= sustainable advantage in the
marketplace• Most customers are poorly managed• Key to acquiring and cultivating long term highly
profitable customer relationships is:• Understanding customer lifetime value
![Page 7: AI/BI and CRM](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062417/54b524744a7959902c8b45b9/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Understanding this relationship
• Quantifies and predicts profitability for customer segments, business units, products and services
• Measure and influence factors that affect customer value over time
• Relative costs and trade-offs to acquire, retain and grow specific customer segments
• Develop actionable programs to maximize profitability
![Page 8: AI/BI and CRM](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062417/54b524744a7959902c8b45b9/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Value of Customer Asset
• Value of individual transactions
• Frequency/recency of purchases
• Cost of service
• Need to generate rich database of customer needs and behavior
• Invest in BI SaaS, OSS, TWDI, cloud computing, text/data mining etc..
![Page 9: AI/BI and CRM](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062417/54b524744a7959902c8b45b9/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Cost of a Customer
• Hardest most expensive sale is first one
• Initial cost of customer and profit generated vs long term potential
![Page 10: AI/BI and CRM](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062417/54b524744a7959902c8b45b9/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
2 Key Components
• 1) Transaction Value (from historical data)
• Can be generated from similarly segmented customer groups
• 2) Network value- customer referals
![Page 11: AI/BI and CRM](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062417/54b524744a7959902c8b45b9/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Lifetime Value Equation
Transaction Value Network Value
Customer Value (minus) Acquisition/retention Costs
![Page 12: AI/BI and CRM](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062417/54b524744a7959902c8b45b9/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Transaction Value
• Historical customer behavior: most important information
• Understanding how the customer interacts with channels and consumes goods and services TODAY is key to FUTURE activity
![Page 13: AI/BI and CRM](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062417/54b524744a7959902c8b45b9/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
3 Key Variables
• Frequency/recency
• Transaction size
• Customer churn rate (loss/attrition is greatest cost to companies in lost rev and to reacquire)
![Page 14: AI/BI and CRM](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062417/54b524744a7959902c8b45b9/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Evolving Habits• Customers mature, buying habits
change• Increase in value if hey are measured
and managed appropriately• Tremendous cross selling/upselling
potential• Can reduce churn rate by satisfaction
![Page 15: AI/BI and CRM](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062417/54b524744a7959902c8b45b9/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Network Value
• Large customers can provide a feed or avenue to tap into their customers
![Page 16: AI/BI and CRM](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062417/54b524744a7959902c8b45b9/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Acquisition/Retention Costs
• Acquisition costs= tot acquisition expense divided by tot new customers
• Vary by segment• Marketing cost, material/collateral, sales,
channel and resource, discount and rebate• Failure to manage will lead to rapid failure• Need AI/BI to manage effectively• (Pets.com)
![Page 17: AI/BI and CRM](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062417/54b524744a7959902c8b45b9/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Aligning Operations
• Build customer centric operations• Maximize customer lifetime value• Organization and operations• Erode profits with poor distributions or
product development w/o customer in mind
• Data mining would provide info to do this right
![Page 18: AI/BI and CRM](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062417/54b524744a7959902c8b45b9/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Integrating Channels• Balance customer preferences with costs of service• Coordinate multiple channels in the customer
interaction process• Call center integration to improve sales and service• Roll of each channel to be clearly defined and
measured and managed• Value of each subsequent customer interaction will
increase to both parties
![Page 20: AI/BI and CRM](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062417/54b524744a7959902c8b45b9/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Role of Technology
• Key factor to measure/manage lifetime value • Captures and stores customer interactions

Tech Role Con’t• CRM Tech facilitates gathering and analysis for profiling
and planning (AI/BI interface)• This is done two ways:• 1) Resources that interact with customers gather
important customer transaction, preference and profile data through data capture fields and processes
• 2) Analytical engines such as pattern learning algorithms and probability and statistics formulas (AI), segment and identify and analyze trends, customer behavior and preferences
• Use to upsell/cross sell, better serve, profit • Meet customer needs
![Page 27: AI/BI and CRM](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062417/54b524744a7959902c8b45b9/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
