14 Case Study: Credit Card Customer Attrition Customers Lost during time period t Attrition Rate (t) = Total Customer Base at the end of time period t Existing customer base: 2,000 customers Customers acquired in time period: 200 Customers lost in time period: 50 (attrition) Total customer base at end of time period: 2,150 subscribers Therefore, attrition rate is 50 / 2150 = 2.3%

15 Why is Loyalty important? CONTRIBUTION FROM AN INDIVIDUAL CUSTOMER Growth Drivers Referrals Up Selling Cross-Selling (Share of Customer) New Volume Base Sales Volume Development & Retention Costs Acquisition Cost T I M E

16 Analytical Techniques for Attrition Modeling Goals Identify business drivers for customer attrition Identify customer profiles of defectors Assign individual propensity to leave Techniques Sequencing Cluster Analysis Predictive Models

17 Sequencing Can sequences of events be identified that are more likely to lead to cancellation of products or relationship? Event-centric technique Requires transactional data with time stamp Many categories of events possible Product opening and closing Demographic changes Behavioral events, triggers

18 Sequencing

19 Descriptive Modelling / Hotspotting Cluster data to allow data to tell us of its internal structures, rather than imposing external structure Let tool search for many clusters (30-40) Once clusters have formed profile your KPI (attrition rate) Use this to identify customer groups of interest

20 Descriptive Modeling / Hot spotting

21 Propensity Modelling Traditional method when target is available Use predictive modelling techniques to calculate propensity of attrition (Trees, NN, Regression, Ensemble) Combine individual propensity with customer value Problem with data structure, need time series structure with extensive history Problems with dimensionality, there can be hundreds to thousands of attributes, especially if history is considered

22 Propensity Modelling

23 Value Based Segmentation

24 Value Based Strategies Enhance Loyalty Retention Do Nothing? Encourage to Go? Ensure Satisfaction Enhance Value Cross-Sell High Value of Customer Low Low Likelihood to Stay High

25 Today s High Value Customers are tomorrow s? High Value Customers? Churners? Low Value Customers? High Risk Customers? Defaulters? Today s Low value customers are tomorrow s?

26 P R O F I T 0 Customer Potential Current Profitability Future Potential Richard Forsyth, Sophron Partners

27 Customer Potential How much value is a customer expected to generate over a fixed period of time Need to know Expected revenue Expected cost Expected propensity to leave All components needs to be predicted Time window is industry dependent

28 Value Based Segmentation High Loyalty Low Low Potential Customer Value High Current Customer Value

29 Ways to increase Customer Potential Increase Revenue cross-sell, up-sell, stimulate product usage Decrease costs more efficient service channels more efficient sales channels less acquisition costs decrease risk through non-payment Increase Tenure higher satisfaction, higher loyalty The 3 areas are dependent on each other model effects

30 Integrated Customer Lifecycle Modeling Framework Lifetime Value Acquisition Product Propensity Product Usage Risk Management Voluntary Attrition Acquisition Prospect New Customer Established Customer Former Customer (adapted from) Gordon Linoff, Pincipal, Data Miners, 1999

31 Model Framework of Next Best Action to Capitalize Future Potential combine all models to constantly re-evaluate the situation of individual customers use outcome to choose next best action not only products but every action possible Product Service Loyalty Nothing turn the paradigm from finding customers for a specific product to finding the best next action for individual customer to maximize their lifetime value

32 Conclusions Analytical CRM adds intelligence to CRM systems Puts customer into center of business Follow stepwise process to add intelligence to CRM systems Build singular models of customer behavior Cross predicted customer behavior with current profitability Analyze every action towards the customer by the value created Predict future profitability Start building customer lifecycle management model framework Start doing it to start learning!!!
